There wasn't much I felt like reporting on from Toy Fair this year, but there were two new entries in The Retro Collection with Captain Antilles and Wedge Antilles. As such, The Retro Collection Dump got a big update to the various lists and tallies with as much information as possible. It's a manual affair, so let me know if you see any errors.

Currently, Wedge and the Cap'n bring 2026 up to 6 total figures, and the entire line is up to 108 figures. This means that The Retro Collection could very well overtake the original Kenner collection in unique figure releases by the end of 2027. For those keeping track at home, Kenner released figures from 1978-1985 (8 years) while Hasbro will have been running The Retro Collection from 2019-2027 (9 years.)
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Shaak Ti (The Vintage Collection). She's the best version yet in terms of sculpt and engineering, but she also seems much more brightly colored - in line with the cartoons. If you don't have a Shaak Ti, get this one. If you do, you might be happy with what you have - but this is worth a peek, right? Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Padmé Amidala (The Vintage Collection). This figure shows Hasbro's utter mastery of replicating characters from the 21st century with a head sculpt that's unmatched, with facial printing that's top-notch, and a very nice plastic wig to top it all off. Articulation is superb, and it's a lot better than the most recent 3 3/4-inch releases... and those were also amazing. If you're happy with what you have, don't look at one in person, because you'll be impressed and buy it. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: The Stranger (Qimir, The Vintage Collection). Sure he's $20, but the hair looks great, he has decent accessories, and there are a bunch of unusual figure parts we probably won't see used ever again. Also this is easily the best character design from The Acolyte, so help yourself to one. Read on!
This week in Star Wars Q&A - The Big Death Start that did get made. It was French, and it was expensive.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Anakin Skywalker (Jedi Spirits, The Vintage Collection). This figure proves two heads are better than one, with a theatrical release/VHS-era head and a digital-era head. It's a good figure, with some parts from an existing Anakin figure as well as new ones. And also you can rip the figure's chest out with the head attached, so that's neat. Read on!

New figures like Star Wars The Vintage Collection The Stranger (Qimir) 3 3/4-Inch Action Figure and Star Wars The Vintage Collection Padme Amidala 3 3/4-Inch Action Figure are in stock now.
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Mandalorian Shriek-Hawk (Brown Chest Armor/No Rangefinder, The Vintage Collection). It's a mix of new and existing parts, or it was back in 2024 when it was new. The figure is part of a pretty nice four-pack, which should have been a massive hit. Boxed sets tend to not do as well as single-carded figures, and we might be getting a little Mando'ed out. That's too bad, as this is a nice figure with colorful armor and some nice gear. I'd recommend the set, especially since this affiliate link shows Amazon slashed the price since its debut. Read on!
This week in Star Wars Q&A - Are figures best when the characters are made in the style of their era? Very much possibly, but I'm partial to anything from the Rebels vs. Empire era in Kenner drag. Also what would old Kenner vehicles cost to remake today? Let's math it out.
Also we are out of questions so I have an opening for next week (and I might take off Toy Fair week if questions aren't on the book before I leave for New York.) If you have questions, send them in!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: IG-11 (Speeder Bike / Epic World of Action). This figure is exclusive to this set, and also Amazon. It lacks the "vest" of other figures, so the torso looks off - but otherwise? It's great! Articulation exceeds most of his peers, although The Vintage Collection still has him beat. With a couple of torso tweaks and two black rifles, I think most adult collectors would be happy with this one. After all, it comes with a uniquely decorated speeder bike, and Grogu, and an optional rocket launcher for the same price as a basic Vintage figure. Toys can be very good, so give this one a look.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Sandtrooper (Stormtroopers of the Empire, The Vintage Collection). The backpack attaches by shoulder straps. It might not be exactly the same as on-screen Sandtroopers, it matches most fans' memory of them with black helmet lenses and little of the unique changes to the armor. But you do get an orange pauldron and three blasters, so it's a nifty figure that you wish you could just buy carded. Right now it's only in a 3-pack. Read on!
