Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,980: Reva (Third Sister, The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, December 29, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Reva (Third Sister, The Retro Collection). She's a Kenner-style figure that came with a pre-wrinkled cape, a pretty good lightsaber, and no eyebrows. I think Hasbro needs to drop the vinyl capes - Kenner did by 1982 - but otherwise, she's a pretty solid figure that you may even find on clearance right now. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,989: RC-1140 (Fixer, The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, December 27, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: RC-1140 (Fixer, The Black Series) . If you got Hunter, or Boss, or Crosshair, you'll recognize a lot of the parts. Hasbro actually gave him a new helmet and a new backpack, but other than paint he's pretty much identical to Boss. Is he worth the upcharge? Well, you could wait for a sale these days. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,988: Death Watch Mandalorian (The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, December 22, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Death Watch Mandalorian (The Black Series). He has two blasters and a lot of gear, plus an articulated rangefinder. The glossy visor is great and the range of movement is no slouch - this is a good 6-inch figure you're not buying. Read on!

Fan-Made Kenner-Style Ubrikkian 9000 Speeder Available from Stan Solo Creations

By Adam Pawlus — Wednesday, December 21, 2022

You don't need it... but maybe you do. The long-gestating Kenner-style Stan Solo custom Ubrikkian 9000 Speeder is up on Etsy for US customers. It's $122, a lot of money for what is effectively a fancy Mini-Rig-style vehicle. However, there are no official ones known to be coming, so this is your current option.

For UK customers (and those wanting to see pictures of the detailed interior), check out Stan Solo Creations' web site. If you're searching for the now, if you're looking for the real thing yeah, this is not a licensed toy vehicle. But Hasbro hasn't really bothered to do vehicles in 2022, so you may have a few bucks in your vehicle budget.

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, December 20, 2022

Just when you think you've seen it all, Amazon is selling licensed hard drives from Seagate.  There's a 2TB Beskar slab, another 2TB model with Mando on the face, and an internal 2TB SSD Beskar drive.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,987: Clone Captain Rex (The Bad Batch, The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, December 20, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Clone Captain Rex (The Bad Batch, The Vintage Collection). It's an Amazon exclusive that was really hard to order, and then marked down after it started to ship. The 4-pack is $55.09 as I write this. Read on!

Massive: Star Wars Blockade Runner Custom Is Five Feet Long

By Adam Pawlus — Sunday, December 18, 2022

BigVia eBay (thanks Mouse): Rebel Blockade Runner vintage style playset kit 3d printed 5 feet long!! Nothing Hasbro or Lucasfilm will announce this month could possibly be more mind-blowingly preposterous than this awesome $599.99 plus shipping vehicle seemingly forged in a 3D printer specifically for your old Kenner figures. It's an upsized dream of an unrealized vehicle.

 

It's massive, and just seeing an old X-Wing Pilot Luke absolutely swallowed by the massive cockpit is just an insane sight to behold. It's almost too big - someone should send me one, of course. You really owe it to yourself to check this out.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,986: George Lucas (in Stormtrooper Diguise, The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, December 15, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: George Lucas (in Stormtrooper Diguise, The Black Series). Mine cracked right out of the box, and the helmet doesn't seem to fit - so if you're thinking maybe you would leave it in the box, I would follow that instinct. The head sculpt isn't bad, but it's clearly meant to be left in the packaging. Read on!

Deal: Amazon has Star Wars Nerf LMTD Amban Mando Blaster Rifle for under $50

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, December 13, 2022

UPDATE: Sale is over. What a deal! Amazon has its long-named NERF Star Wars Amban Phase-Pulse Blaster, The Mandalorian, Scope with Illuminated Lens, 10 Darts, Blaster Sounds, 50.25 Inches Long - how descriptive - for $49.95 until... we don't know when. But it's $49.95 right now. Sounds like a great gift for the kid or the Star Wars fan site writer in your life.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 2,985: Boba Fett (Droids, The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, December 13, 2022

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Boba Fett (Droids, The Black Series). The first time Hasbro has released Vlix in the United States! He's on the packaging twice. There's also a Boba Fett in the box, but you'll take note of Vlix on the back and in the front flap. Also this is the 2013 Boba Fett figure painted to look like his animated armor, which is excellent, but Hasbro has proven they know Vlix exists so now they can make a figure... right?

(Coincidentally, Target revealed two more exclusive 3 3/4-inch Boba Fetts today, but I digress.)
