Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,050: Tusken Raider (The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, July 27, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Tusken Raider (The Retro Collection). He's a little different - the silver coloring and head sculpt deviate a little from the original, likely giving you another reason to pick up what is effectively another variant in your old figure collection. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,049: Han Solo (The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, July 25, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Han Solo (The Vintage Collection). It's a new-ish figure. He has no jacket, but he's $16.99. Much of the tooling is recycled from the Solo: A Star Wars Story figure. It's not bad per se, but it not being a 100% new sculpt at this price may leave you not loving the shortcomings of the old-style legs and hoping it could be as good as some of the all-new figures we've had in the last couple of years.

SDCC 2023 Preview Night: Adam's Snapshots from Hasbro

By Adam Pawlus — Sunday, July 23, 2023

Crossposted from 16bit.com! I loves me some Star Wars. 3 3/4-inch figures are best, especially the retro ones. Hasbro had The Book of Boba Fett wave of The Retro Collection online with Boba Fett, a Tusken Raider, Cad Bane, Luke Skywalker (black robe and no blaster), Grogu, Mando, Fennec Shand, and Tusken Boba. It's a nice selection.

The Boba/Jabba/Bib throne room was on display, as were tons of lightsabers and other recent reveals. Even some Ahsoka toys were there, including a swell hat, a lightsaber, and a Chopper droid toy. You may have seen a few of these before, or not - the Mission Fleet sets were, I think, at least partially new.

Some Notes on the Hasbro HasLab Star Wars: The Vintage Collection The Ghost Vehicle

By Adam Pawlus — Sunday, July 23, 2023

Better late than never! I've been speculating/predicting this for a couple of years, but at SDCC Hasbro confirmed the HasLab Star Wars The Vintage Collection The Ghost vehicle/playset. For $499.99, you get a ship that seems to be a little bigger than the big Millennium Falcon, the Phantom II, a slug/no-legs Chopper droid, and a carded Hera Syndulla figure. As I write this, it has just under 45 days to go and is 7,231 of 8,000 backers. But there's more to it than that.

Does it fit your old Star Wars Rebels figures? Sadly, I wasn't able to ask and am still catching up with con coverage - but Razor Crest and the Sail Barge were both designed with seats that work with Kenner-style action figures. So, let's hope.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,048: Like Skywalker (Imperial Light Cruiser, The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, July 20, 2023

We are experincing some road-related technical problems so SDCC updates will have to wait until the weekend - but this was written early, so here goes!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Like Skywalker (Imperial Light Cruiser, The Black Series). You liked him in The Mandalorian, and you'll probably appreciate that this figure is changed a little bit of what you expect in Return of the Jedi, but with a different vest and belt buckle and a black cloak. If you can find it, you're probably going to want it. Read on!

Leak: Retro ROTJ Randomness

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, July 18, 2023

Well, that's a surprise. Making the rounds on social media is this Return of the Jedi The Retro Collection Kenner-style 6-pack form, allegedly, Hasbro and Kenner. You get the Emperor's Royal Guard, Gamorrean Guard, Wicket the Ewok, and Admiral Ackbar - all good figures. But what's super exciting is you also allegedly get Yak Face and a brand-new old-style Mon Mothma. This was supposedly posted by In Demand Toys, and has not been revealed in an official capacity as of yet. I hope it's real and real nearby.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,046: R2-D2 (The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, July 13, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: (The Retro Collection). Slightly more compelling than the title character of Andor, A Kenner R2-D2-esque droid made a cameo in a trailer yesterday, but I plan these things weeks in advance - what a coincidence! The 1978 droid always looked a little weird, but now you can get a nearly-perfect one at a decent price. It's just as good as I remember, and in better shape, so I'd recommend it to Kenner fanatics. Read on!

Hasbro Star Wars SDCC and PulseCon Figures Revealed

By Adam Pawlus — Wednesday, July 12, 2023

We had two reveals today. One (pictured) is Collider's 'The Book of Boba Fett's Black Krrsantan Heads to SDCC With Epic New Hasbro Figure [Exclusive], a $40 variant of a $28 pre-order you forgot you made already. Pre-order QR codes will be distributed at San Diego Comic-Con International next week. It is worth noting the variant has an alternate head, so you may want both versions or you may be perfectly happy with the cheaper (and I think better-looking) closed-mouth main line version. The pre-order for the standard release shows a lot of those accessories, so unless someone made an error the plussed-up more-expensive edition may not even be worth your while.

The other is Fandom's reveal of Starkiller Strikes in New Force Unleashed Star Wars The Black Series Figure Set, a $110.99 set that gives you two figures you got for around $19.99 in 2020 and one new figure. This one is slated for Hasbro's PulseCon event, which usually is a pre-recorded showing of new stuff over a weekend in September.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,045: Paz Vizsla (The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, July 11, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Paz Vizsla (The Vintage Collection). This one is kind of fascinating - it shows what Hasbro can do with a higher budget. They decided to make a more expensive figure, so elements that would normally be painted - like the yellow armor - are now molded in color. He has more gear and more articulation, plus tons of paint applications. Is he great? Absolutely. Is it worth $28 instead of a simpler figure at $10-$15 with less stuff? Maybe - but at least you can see where the money went here. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,044: Luthen Rael (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, July 6, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Luthen Rael (The Black Series). Slightly more compelling than the title character of Andor, Hasbro made this figure with a top-notch head sculpt, baggy pants, and some joints that stuck a little more than I'd have liked - but hey, use the force, things start to move. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,042: Jawa (The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, June 29, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Jawa (The Retro Collection). With a slightly different hood sculpt, this little guy's cloth hood is a spectacularly good match of the original. I like the detail, the color change is interesting, and it's one of the better remakes. They even changed the blaster color a bit -so you can add him to your sandcrawler and he still looks different enough to be interesting. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,041: Grogu (The Rescue Set, The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, June 27, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Grogu (The Rescue Set, The Vintage Collection). It's a new sculpt, it's arguably an accessory, and it's not really bad. As part of a $75 set you won't be feeling you got your money's worth, but at least it's decent. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,040: Chewbacca (Boushh's Bounty, The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, June 22, 2023

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Chewbacca (Boushh's Bounty, The Black Series). Hasbro really doesn't like to make new Chewbacca bodies - we're still getting the Vintage 2004 one, and this The Black Series body shares the same basic build as every 6-inch scale Wookiee so far. But he has a new head, so that's something. It's new, technically, and the collar does some neat things intertwining with the fur around the neck. Otherwise? More of the same. Read on!
