Figure of the Day

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,131: Jar Jar Binks (The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, May 7, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Jar Jar Binks (The Retro Collection). I have been seeing a steady trickle of this figure at Target, where it's an exclusive closed-box six pack with six individually carded figures inside. This is one of the better ones - his hands are more modernized than most retro figures, but he's still pretty charming and fits in more Mini-Rigs than I anticipated. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,130: Darth Maul (The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, May 2, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Darth Maul (The Retro Collection). To celebrate 25 years of the movie, as tomorrow is 25 years of Midnight Madness, we're going to review this 6-pack - currently at Target - until we look at 'em all. Maul's details are a little soft, but he has a better pose and is generally interesting to fuss with. He can't fit in the Sith Infiltrator though. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,129: Jannah (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, April 30, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Jannah (The Black Series). I didn't open mine until pretty recently - it's a decent figure, but you can also see how the modern Star Wars design ethos has a lot of overlap between movies, as she could just as easily be on the same shelf as Rogue One characters with her chunky tech gear off of more or less familiar clothing.. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,128: Darth Vader (Epic Hero Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, April 25, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Darth Vader (Epic Hero Series). He's widely available at Walmarts, has huge feet, and is a little wobbly - but he's Darth Vader, and as such is worthy of your attention. Read on!

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 3,125: Count Dooku (The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, April 16, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Count Dooku (The Vintage Collection) . This figure is excellent - I got a bum one with two identical upper arms, and I still was thoroughly impressed by the likeness, detail, deco, articulation, and especially the cape. It's by no means perfect, but considering the last movie Dooku we had was over 10 years ago it's an easy figure to like. Also it seems to be selling out, so go get yours before it's gone. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,124: Saw Gerrera (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, April 11, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Saw Gerrera (The Black Series). This is not a figure that kept its value, but it is a pretty good one. It's loaded with sculpted detail, some of which isn't painted, but it's excellent at the current market prices. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,123: Paz Vizsla (Epic Hero Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, April 9, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Paz Vizsla (Epic Hero Series). This figure feels like a real Kenner toy from the late 1980s or 1990s, with lots of fun parts. It's not cheap at $15, but it is incredibly satisfying and I would say pick it up and keep on on your desk to play with. I think you'll be pleased. 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 3,121: Morgan Elsbeth (The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, April 2, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Morgan Elsbeth (The Retro Collection). I just saw her on clearance at Target over the weekend, but she's been scarce. This figure has no accessories, and is missing some key make-up detail, but is otherwise pretty excellent.  If you see her on sale, definitely pick up one.   Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,120: R5-D4 (The Mandalorian, The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, March 28, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R5-D4 (The Mandalorian, The Vintage Collection). This looks a lot like a figure from 12 years ago, at about twice the price, but is cheaper than buying that release in today's market. It lacks The Mandalorian-specific deco, but if you have a Sandcrawler that needs droids? This is good. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,119: R5-D4 (The Mandalorian, The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, March 26, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R5-D4 (The Mandalorian, The Black Series). There was a new R2-D2 mold last year, and this R5-D4 figure uses it - with a bad motivator, and a new dome. It's clean, and lacks the Mando-specific dirt patterns. But other than that, it's a perfectly nice droid figure. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,118: The Mandalorian (Epic Hero Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, March 21, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: The Mandalorian (Epic Hero Series). This is a very nice figure - it doesn't have all of the deco as other similarly sized figures, but it's a better figure. The exaggerated bright silver Beskar armor is gorgeous, the Darksaber is fantastic, the pistol ain't bad, and the cape is a clip-on around the neck. He can fit in your The Vintage Collection vehicles, too. He's also really easy to find at Walmart as they seem to be getting solid cases of just Mando, and also Darth Vader, but Mando is the better figure. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,117: Ahsoka Tano (Epic Hero Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, March 19, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Ahsoka Tano (Epic Hero Series). This is a new mold, and I've seen her online and in the cardboard Easter dumps at Walmart - and this is a great figure. Other than the lack of a waist joint, she feels like a sturdy 1990s figure with nice clear lightsabers, the ability to stand easily, and freely moving joints. In short, this one is a toy first and is all the better for it. I'd recommend picking her up - the face sculpt is really excellent. 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!
