If you've been to Target you probably saw the Luke Skywalker (The Black Series 6-Inch, Premium Exclusive).  It's good - but it's $10 more than the regular one for a stand, a metal hand, and some cloth parts.  Is it worth the upcharge, or rebuy?  Read on!

I saw The Last Jedi last night, but I wrote the review of BB-9E (Droid Factory Line Look)  a couple of weeks ago so as to avoid spoilers for you all.  It's a nice figure!  It looks good!  And yes, this is the Disney one - we'll look at Hasbro's shortly.  Read on!

Disney's exclusive BB-4 (Droid Factory Line Look)  gives us a glimpse at the new movie that opens tomorrow.  So soon?  Yes.   Anyway, what's his deal? I don't really know yet, but I look forward to finding out.  Read on!

This is the week you've been waiting for!   The Last Jedi debuts in just a couple of days, and Luke Skywalker (Jedi Exile) is in stores now, possibly.  You'll hear Luke Skywalker speak for the first time in 34 years, so what could possibly be on his mind?  Hopefully he won't be complaining about this new action figure, as it's pretty great.  Read on!

While single carded samples of Emperor Palpatine (The Last Jedi Line Look)  have surfaced, right now you can only get him in the set at Target - and it's a winner.  While the robes prevent seating, it's a stunning design with great swappable hands and above-par sculpting.  I hope you got one.  Read on!

Exclusive to Target, this Luke Skywalker (The Last Jedi Line Look) is another new sculpt - the head is good, the colors aren't bad, and he has wrist joints.  Color me surprised!  It's sold with a new Emperor and Royal Guard, so the set is a winner.  Read on!

Until The Last Jedi comes out, we're doing 3 Figure of the Days per week!  This is Jyn Erso from the 2018 line - she has a sound chip!  But she doesn't have the rocket launcher.  She's very similar to last year's figure, but there are differences.  Read on!

Check out R2-D2 (The Last Jedi Line Look)!  It's a build-a-droid mold, with a sound chip, and some new rockets.  It's a pretty cool figure for the asking price - I haven't seen one in stores yet, but you may find them online.  Read on!

It's sort of a statue, it's kind of an action figure, and it might be on markdown at your local big box store right now - despite having been released in September.  The Luke Skywalker (The Black Series, 6-Inch, Centerpiece) has interchangable base parts in addition to a fantastic sculpt with exceptional paintwork.  Should you buy one?  Read on!

There aren't many toys of the Shoretrooper Captain (Rogue One Line Look)  available in the USA - he's got a lot of blue and is packed with Bistan.  Is it worth getting this cool trooper and his space monkey pal?  Read on!

Better late than never - and Bistan was pretty close to "never."   I'm really happy Bistan got out as a special thing, as everybody deserves a cool new alien space monkey action figure with a new Stormtrooper.   Read on!

One good droid deserves another - the BB-8 (Droid Factory Line Look) is a newish mold!   He's bigger than Hasbro's, but the deco is different - not better, not worse.  Neither seems truly superior, but this one is bigger and a little bit more adorable thanks to the eye seeming to have more life in it.  Read on!

Not from Hasbro!  Disney's 2BB-2 (Droid Factory Line Look) is pretty slick and, for some reason, have the lettering backward.  Go figure.  It's a neat robot that looks kind of like a globe of Earth.  Read on!

You may have seen big displays of these in September, and now they seem to have dried up.  But why?  The Darth Vader (The Black Series, 6-Inch, Centerpiece) lights up and has places to put Stormtroopers while the Sith Lord tears down this wall.  It lights up, too.  Read on!

The new Kylo Ren is a 3 3/4-inch figure available in multiple configurations - this one is sold carded, with a cape, and has a painted scar on his face.  It's probably the best of these, unless he's also going to come out with the "space bandage" we saw in the movie trailer later.  Read on!
