Action Figures

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,228: The Inquisitor (Rebels, The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Monday, November 2, 2015

Today, let's look at the repackage figure of The Inquisitor with a new shield weapon!  It's neat - well, it's not bad.  You technically have it, but new accessories do warrant a second look.  Read on!

20% Off Star Wars Action Figures at Toys R Us Through 11/21

By Adam Pawlus — Sunday, November 1, 2015

Toys R Us is offering a deal from now through November 21!  "20% off ALL Star Wars 3.75" figures & vehicles." What they don't tell you is that some other items are on sale, and the asterisk is that Black Series doesn't count.  My advice to you - scan every item you see, just in case what you want is on aisle.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,227: Stormtrooper Officer (Desert, The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Friday, October 30, 2015

An Entertainment Earth exclusive, the desert flavor of the Stormtrooper Officer comes with a red pauldron and a totally different paint job on his Assault Walker.   It's a little whiter than the jungle trooper, and looks like it should fit right in on a Jakku shelf. It's also shipping right now.  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,226: Sarco Plank (The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, October 29, 2015

Walk the plank!  Or don't.  This is Sarco Plank, a new alien menace who has popped up in at least one of the books so far.  He's due to be in The Force Awakens and if I were a betting man, I'd assume in a very limited role.  Want to see more?  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,225: Ahsoka Tano (Rebels, The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Wednesday, October 28, 2015

In 2008, she wasn't well received.  Today Ahsoka Tano and her appearances on Star Wars Rebels are a huge, huge deal.  This figure comes packaged with Darth Vader and it's a fast seller - buy it if you see it (and enjoy the show)!  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,224: Unkar's Thug (The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, October 27, 2015

Unkar's Thug is here!  He's masked, he has a swell vest, and he's a normal height for an action figure.  But what is under the mask? That, I don't know.  Speculate wildly, or read this review.   Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,223: R2-D2 (The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Monday, October 26, 2015

For The Force Awakens, Hasbro outfitted R2-D2 with a completely new harness that features energy blasters.  For those of us who have been waiting 19 years for the cryptotoyological toy to show up, here's one!  The R2-D2 itself is similar to the Mission Series release from a while back, but the shade of blue is different.  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,222: Jakku Scavenger (Teedo, The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Friday, October 23, 2015

The Jakku Scavenger actually has a name - it's Teedo, and it's on the back of the box.  This little guy comes with Unkar's Thug and BB-8, making up one of the best figure set values in the current toy line.   Did you get yours?  Get looking for one, or order it online.  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,221: C-3PO (The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, October 22, 2015

Today, let's look at a new C-3PO!  This one comes with R2-D2, and he's got more than a red arm and two gold legs.  The torso has been resculpted a bit, and you'll find a few other tweaks between him and the similar Mission Series version from a couple of years ago.  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,220: BB-8 (The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Wednesday, October 21, 2015

There is another!  And apparently, there's a variant.   My BB-8 was packed with a Thug and a Scavenger, plus it even has a hole in the base for stands - and I'm told not everybody's does.   Functionally he's the same as the Millennium Falcon BB-8, which has been voted "Most Likely to be Stolen" by Entitled Collector Magazine for the month of October.  

However, the sculpt is different and the deco has been changed too - he's cleaner, whiter, and has different panels.   Want to see more?  Sure you do - read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,219: Darth Vader (Rebels, The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, October 20, 2015

Straight from Star Wars Rebels, it's Darth Vader!  This one takes cues from some concept designs, being a good translation of his appearance on the cartoon.  It comes with Ahsoka, and you're probably fretting over the fact you don't have one yet.  You should get one.  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,218: Guavian Enforcer (The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Monday, October 19, 2015

It's new!  The 3 3/4-inch Guavian Enforcer showed up and boy howdy do I love this target-faced goon.  I may never be able to prove that he's paid product placement for the big red dot, but I can prove that it has cool armor and a very shootable face.  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,217: Chewbacca (The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Friday, October 16, 2015

This retooled Chewbacca has a different head - and some other pieces - when compared to the Armor Up version.  Presumably more are coming, but this is the latest one right now.  It comes packaged with the Millennium Falcon and his claim to fame is the bulky communications gear.  How retro!  Is it any good?  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,216: Finn (The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, October 15, 2015

Another Finn!  This one comes with the Millennium Falcon and sports unique communications equipment - so it's different.  He has a blaster, five points of articulation, and the same basic sculpt you've seen with a bunch of changes.  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,214: Finn (The Force Awakens)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, October 13, 2015

The Jakku Landspeeder version of Finn is, surprisingly, quite different.  The head looks better, the leg pose is improved, and he can more easily fit in vehicles.  It's great!  If you're thinking about getting this one, you probably should.  Read on!
