Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 1,425

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, November 30, 2010

Since the 1970s, Boba Fett  has been a major presence in fan imaginations and toy boxes.  This younger incarnation of the character has stunning articulation, good accessories, and, sadly, no helmet.  It's a big improvement over the other prequel-inspired figure, but should you get him?  Read on!

Galen Marek or Starkiller, the Secret Apprentice, or whatever you want to call him has a lot of names, and even more costume changes.  This 2010 release is based on a Jango Fett mold-- and it's pretty great!   Read on to see what you're missing.

Behold, a sign of a figure to come!  Hasbro's Imperial Scanning Crew figures were meant to include a running change with an alternate accessory and different head sculpt.  This didn't happen-- and for all we know, it won't happen.  But how is the original?  Read on!

Have another Clone Commander but this time, from Bantha Squad! Hasbro's creative use of paint and parts-swapping resulted in this nifty character, which we posed on a Playmobil backdrop. That thing's great.  So is the figure.  Read on!

What's red and shot in the heart?  Why, this red Clone Trooper officer!  What a nice figure.  It uses the 2003 body with special deco that, so far, has not returned in the line.  Should you track it down?  Read on!

One of the dangers of toys from video games is the game may not be done before the toys are, so the Secret Apprentice looks nothing like Sam Witwer, really.  (Although it's arguably no more off than most Han figures are from Harrison Ford.)  How does this 2008 release stack up now that the sequel is out? Read on!

Who wants to see something new?  Montross comes from Jango Fett: Open Seasons and is one of the eight new Entertainment Earth exclusive figures in the comic packs. The first shipment already sold out, so is it worth getting in line for the next round?  Read on!

Behold, the lost Hoth Rebel Trooper of 2009!  This was the variant Hasbro meant to release but through one reason or another, didn't until this year's big Target exclusive gift sets.  Is this head and hat variant worth your hard-earned cashola?  Read on!

Another blast from the past, you simply cannot imagine how excited people were when this, the second-ever unique outfit for Darth Maul hit stores in 1999.  I'm sure you can, however, imagine how much that excitement has faded.  Is this a hidden gem?  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 1,414

By Adam Pawlus — Monday, November 15, 2010

Today let's look at Palpatine, a figure which has multiple variants, spare parts, and basically just stands there and swings his arm.  Is this a must-buy figure, or should you wait for some super-poseable one in ten years?  Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 1,413

By Adam Pawlus — Friday, November 12, 2010

Hasbro made a ton of Battle Droid figures since 1999, some better than others.  This model was from their cheap era, in which we got two figures for the price of one-- at the time this was a really awesome thing, but today Hasbro gives us two super-articulated figures for the same price.  Hooray for the future-- but read on for the past!

One of the better new aliens to come out of the prequels was the freakish Sebulba, and this was the first crack at him as an action figure.  It turned out well, but was eclipsed in just a few years with a far superior, larger, and more articulated version.  It happens-- but this one comes with his racer! Isn't that worth something?  Read on!

Hey, it's one of the best Obi-Wan Kenobi action figures you can buy!  He's super-articulated and while an improved version was produced, the 2010 release of the figure proves the older one is still basically just fine.  Is it time to buy?  Read on!
