This week in Q&A - Lost figures! The'll probably stay that way. New joints - are they improved? I think so. And vehicles and figures - a great pairing that's really hard to get right, at least in terms of juxtaposing them fourth dimensionally.

Be sure you send in your questions for next time. Read on!

Your figure of the day is The Mandalorian (Beskar Armor, The Vintage Collection). It's a retool with a lot of new parts, and particularly bright armor.  It's also the same mold as the Walmart 2-pack with the kid, which is arguably different enough that you will clearly want both.  But can you find either?  Probably not.  Want to know what you're  Read on!

Today in Figure of the Day: Jar Jar Binks (The Black Series 6-Inch).

This week in Q&A - Helmets! Aren't they great? Jabba's Throne for Jabba or Bib or whoever. Should you get your hopes up? And let's keep depressing you with Mando in short supply - look, more are being made, what do you want from me?

Ad: Pre-Order New Hasbro Star Wars The Black Series and The Vintage Collection Action Figures at Entertainment Earth! New reveals today include the 6-inch Bad Batch Trooper as well as the 3 3/4-inch The Clone Wars finale-inspired Ahsoka Tano and Darth Maul.

You can't afford to miss the Moff Gideon (The Vintage Collection). For such a tiny head, this is one of Hasbro's very best likenesses - he has a Darksaber and a blaster, plus a removable cape. The articulation is nothing to sneeze at. There's somefring for everybody.

Today let's take a look at the not-too-distant-past with the partially old, partialy new Darth Vader (Rogue One, The Vintage Collection). It's a figure from nearly 10 years ago with new paint and some new parts.

This week in Q&A - Pricing! Can it keep going higher? Of course. Packaging variants are less and less common these days. And costs are high. Yes.

Let's look at the Electrostaff Purge Trooper (The Black Series 6-Inch). The gummy bolts don't like to stay put - so expect to lose those under a couch. Read on!

A current Target exclusive, this Remnant Stormtrooper (The Black Series 6-Inch) features some exceptionally nice paint on that new Stormtrooper mold. Given that just 13 years ago we were seeing troopers with what looked like grass stains and we said "hey that ain't bad," this is some real progress. Read on!

Somehow this got missed on the front page, but Clone Trooper (Phase I, The Black Series 6-Inch) is a figure! You can buy it! It's a lot like the Phase II mold used for Ahsoka's squad and the Kamino troopers, but with a different helmet and articulation similar to 3 3/4-inch figures.  It's good - do you need to rebuild your armies now?  Read on!

This week in Q&A - Complaints! Take a number. The new era of new and old franchise entries! How will it work? And wild colorways - you know I love 'em!

I'm very fond of the Death Trooper (Credit Collection, The Black Series 6-Inch) - the black armored trooper from Rogue One is back, splattered with orange and purple as you saw in the end credit sequence.  For fans of designer toys, this Amazon-exclusive is pretty gorgeous - but you might be perfectly happy with the figure you bought a few years ago all in black.  Read on!

This week in Q&A - the changing face of the saga! What we got 25 years ago has changed a lot from the line of today. New Boba Fetts - nothing yet! Also More Mandalorian toys - sure, we want them, but is there a proper line in the wings?

We just got a small one, but we also got a 6-inch The Armorer (The Black Series 6-Inch) last year!  This is the mass release with the plastic cape - and she's great.  Shiny! Accessorized!  Ready to smash skulls and forge armor, the Armorer is... oh, why even write her up.  You're not going to find her in stores.  Read on!
