By Mike — Monday, December 13, 2010

This figure may not be the most articulated or even definitive R2-D2, but boy is he fun with all the flashing lights and electronic sounds. A repack of the Revenge of the Sith figure from  2005, this mold actually saw its first incarnation in plastic as the POTF2 Power FX R2-D2.

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, December 9, 2010

He was in the original Star Wars in the background, and now he gets to talk and be annoyed by Anakin Skywalker.  Admiral Yularen was a slow seller in 2009, but now he's gone and you can't have one.  Too bad.  Should you be upset?  Read on!

VC13 Consumed by Darth Vader

By Mike — Monday, December 6, 2010

As Hasbro promised, the name tab, cardback, and POP for VC13, formerly known as Anakin Skywalker, is now appropriately called Darth Vader per his transformation and appearance in Mustafar.
