It's Moroff!  He comes with a trooper you want, but is actually a pretty fantastic figure himself.  He may have laughable hair, but it would seem that sort of thing is accepted as of late.   He also includes a giant backpack cannon and a smaller - but still big - rifle.  Read on!

This new Imperial Stormtrooper looks like how most people imagined Sandtroopers in the 1990s - most customs were just a shoulder pad on a Stormtrooper, and it was always orange. The configuration appered in Star Wars Rebels too - but this is the movie Rogue One version with an added ammo pouch.  Swanky!  Read on!

Baze Malbus is some sort of weapons expert in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.   The figure was designed accordingly with a massive backpack rocket launcher that may or may not be in the movie.  I have no idea - all I know is that I have this figure in my hands and it looks pretty good.  Read on!

This week in Q&A - Exclusive C-3PO - anxious? Well, it comes, it goes. Get thee to a Walgreens, go. Reproduction - the songs of The Human League! No wait, this is about vintage toy parts. And finally, exclusive duplicates - just how skippable is that 6-pack at Toys R Us right now?

And send in your questions for next week. Read on!

It's Sergeant Jyn Erso (Jedha) from wave 2 of the 3 3/4-inch Rogue One line!  She has a scarf, a blaster, a rocket launcher, and feels like she'd be right at home in the mid-late 1980s "off camera" world of Star Wars toys.   If she couldn't pilot the ATL Interceptor, I don't know who could.   But is she worth picking up - even with appearances in an upcoming gift set and vehicle?  Read on!

Director Krennic is in charge of the whole Death Star construction thing and has a group of hangers-on called Death Troopers.  As such, one might assume he's the new bad guy - the figure turned out fairly well, although maybe the cape isn't exactly what you wanted.   It's still a nice figure.   Read on!

Target's Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Hasbro exclusive sets are in stores as of today.   A 12-inch 6-pack, a 3 3/4-inch 7-pack, and a 6-inch 3-pack are there now.  The Black Series set includes a repack of Jyn Erso along with a plussed up Imperial Death Trooper with more gear and the jacketed version of Cassian Andor.  The Eadu head looks a smidgen better - but they're out there now if you need them.

In the annals of obscurity, many people at many companies worked very hard to bring you the still-nameless Jabba's Bartender astromech droid, in stock now at Entertainment Earth.  It's in Return of the Jedi, and if you can find it you get a prize.   Read on!

Ad: Coming soon! E.T. Glow-in-the-Dark Finger and Chest ReAction Action Figure - Entertainment Earth Exclusive and a E.T. ReAction Action Figure 3-Pack are on the way from Funko. If you just want E.T., grab the exclusive carded figure - it's perfect to hang around with your old-school Cantina aliens. (It's OK, they're pals and it's canon.) The 3-pack also brings you Gertie and Elliot - retro-styled just like you wish you had in 1982. Pre-orders are welcome at Entertainment Earth today.

Happy Halloween!  R2-B00 is - or was - at Disney theme parks as I type this for about thirteen spooky dollars.    It'll be a beast to find them now that R2-H16 is shipping.  I bet they'll skeleton of them.  You could say it's pretty ghoul.   Rather than torture more words in this intro, why not read on?

This week in Q&A - Starfighters - there sure are lots of them, aren't there? And paint - what's with the dots? Also other sci-fi action figures - could they have a revival in a retro style? It's like Laura Kightlinger says, "Anything can happen with a razor."

And send in your questions for next week. Read on!

And finishing up the 4-pack, it's R3-M2!  This one has a new dome sculpt with a big silver band on the bottom which, unfortunately, helps highlight the inaccuracies of the Hasbro domes for the R3 droids over the past few years.  Well.  I guess we can look to redoing the rest of them.  It's a great figure with wonderful deco, so check it out and read on!

Silver on silver!  R2-BHD has some nifty deco points, but is a little on the pale side.  It's like the ghost of R2-D2.   You can get it at or near Disney theme parks as I write this, so go ahead and do that were you so inclined.  Read on!

It appears Lucasfilm and Disney are going long on C2-B5 - at least three known action figures are available or are in the works so far.   This 3 3/4-inch action figure is available now as part of a Disney parks exclusive Rogue One boxed set - one you can actually buy outside the park in the Downtown Disney compound.  Should you get it?  Read on!
