Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,178: C4-R4C (Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, October 8, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: C4-R4C (Droid Factory). As the only 3 3/4-inch figure of this droid, it's the best - and it's pretty good too. There are a lot of grimy paint apps over a freh figure, so if you squint and get in close it's quite impressive. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,174: Professor Huyang (Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, September 24, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Professor Huyang (Droid Factory). Hasbro made one too - Hasbro's is taller and has more accessories. Disney's has different paint applications - so neither is the superior figure, at least, on the surface. Since this one is in a gift set with more droids, should you pick it up? Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,168: RD-3 (Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, September 3, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: RD-3 (Droid Factory). This Disney Ahsoka droid has the foot cables - which are very unusual for Disney droids - with a slightly larger head on an old body that you probably don't remember actually seeing on the show. But the colors look nice. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,162: 3PO Protocol Droid (Gold, Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, August 13, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: 3PO Protocol Droid (Gold, Droid Factory). If you didn't get the gold in Paris, maybe you can get one on eBay. This droid isn't C-3PO, but he comes from the droid bins that, sadly, no longer exist. He also looks pretty close to The Last Jedi C-3PO, so you may not necessarily need it but you also might very much need it for complete droid power. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,158: 3PO Protocol Droid (Silver, Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, July 30, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: 3PO Protocol Droid (Silver, Droid Factory). It's not TC-14, but I can see why you might assume it is. This one doesn't have a shiny silver finish, the chest tooling and hands are different, and he has blue eyes - and you had to buy him by putting together parts from bins in a theme park. But now you can't. How was he when you could buy him seven years ago? Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,15: TC-14 (Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, July 11, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: TC-14 (Droid Factory). There are surprisingly few figures being made for the 25th anniversary of The Phantom Menace, so it makes sense to make a figure that's a retool and can use some old parts. I was mostly surprised to see how much of it was new, including the hands and torso - and the shine is nice too. Don't throw out your vac-metal CommTech TC-14, but maybe give this one a look. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,141: R3-RNBW (Pride Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, June 11, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R3-RNBW (Pride Collection). It's Pride season, and this is probably the most colorful droid we've ever been offered - there are a ton of individual paint applications and some extra gray squares I may not be hip enough to identify. Regardless, it looks cool - this little robot has colorful boxes, vents, and outlines all over and really stands out in a sub-category known for being pretty colorful. Should you get one? Well I would. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,136: LOM-Series Protocol Droid (Black, Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, May 23, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: LOM-Series Protocol Droid (Black, Droid Factory). It's a bin build-a-figure so you may never see it again, but hey, it's neat and the kind of droid thing you'd probably be happy to see in a store if such things were possible in 2024. Read on!

ShopDisney Star Wars Pride Collection Droid Goodies for 2024

By Adam Pawlus — Monday, May 13, 2024

ShopDisney posted a couple of Pride products, and they're really cool. The R3-RN8W Droid Factory Figure – Star Wars Pride Collection may well be the best figure they've done so far - maybe R2-RNBW is better, I don't know, I haven't been able to get one after a few years - with a clear dome, black body, and tons of color. It's great.

Also new is a R2-D2 Slider Pin – Star Wars Pride Collection – Limited Release, which has a moving droid part on it.

Retro-Inspired R2-D2 and C-3PO Talking Figures at ShopDisney

By Adam Pawlus — Saturday, May 4, 2024

While not actual retro product, the retro-inspired C-3PO and R2-D2 Talking Action Figure Set – Classic Edition – Star Wars is up at ShopDisney right now for $49.99. It's two figures - including a slightly off-model Kenner-inspired R2-D2 - where C-3PO is around 9-inches and R2-D2 is over 6-inches.

Presumably this won't be in any stores other than theme parks.

Disney Releases May 4th TC-14 Figure

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,127: CZ Series Communications Droid (Gold, Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, April 23, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: CZ Series Communications Droid (Gold, Droid Factory). This bin parts figure is no longer available at Disney parks (or so I've been told), but its distinctive gold with silver highlight coloring may well be worth tracking down. He's from 2017. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,122: 3PO Protocol Droid (Red, Droid Factory)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, April 4, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: 3PO Protocol Droid (Red, Droid Factory). This is not the carded one - but there's a comparison photo in the review. This is the one from the bins that no longer exist. The red color is a little different and the white eyes pop nicely. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,116: R3-Series Astromech Droid Clear with Orange

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, March 14, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R3-Series Astromech Droid Clear with Orange. This is from a few years ago, but I wanted to finally pop him out of the blister from 2015 and take some pictures. This came out of the parts bins, so your best bet to getting one is eBay - and some of those prices aren't that bad, all things considered. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,110: R4-Series Astromech Droid Black with Silver

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, February 22, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R4-Series Astromech Droid Black with Silver. This was a later droid bin part from the Disney theme parks - and it looks a lot like a Hasbro dome, but doesn't have a perfectly matching body. It's also not too expensive on eBay if you can find it. Read on!
