Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Tech M'or (Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes, The Vintage Collection). It's a part of the white box band multi-pack, and it's great. They also announced a The Book of Boba Fett Tusken Raider army pack today, which also seems pretty great. It's nice to have aliens in the line again. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: The Emperor (The Retro Collection). It's very similar to the originals, which, oddly, are pretty cheap on eBay. The 2023 reissue has smoothed out the textures on the robes and the wrinkles on the hands and face are less wrinkly. If you have an open original you probably don't need the reissue, which looks incredibly similar to the genuine article unless you squint. Read on!

Via the Glyos News Dump: Healey Made Bulloch Assassin and Raider Returns. The Raider (Assassin) was also restocked, and they match! They also match the Trooper (Bulloch) from a few months ago, so with any luck, this is the last of the Bulloch colorways for a while.
This is a 3 3/4-inch scale action figure sculpted by a former Kenner employee. The head and limbs are removable via Glyos pegs, which I assume you know about, but you should go look them up if you don't. The figure has an alternate helmeted head and a blaster, and actually fits in pretty well with your old Kenner guys and ReAction Figures. The figures are $25 each and come packaged in a clear plastic bag.
And if that weren't enough, you can click here to see a bunch more Healey Made news and info at the Glyos News Dump.
Today Hasbro (and Yahoo) revealed 7 of 8 previously announced Star Wars: The Retro Collection Kenner-style action figures from The Book of Boba Fett. Check them out in: 'Mandalorian' and 'Boba Fett' go retro for latest action figure lineup (exclusive). The whole wave - or at least we've seen - is pretty excellent with what seems to be three existing sculpts with deco/accessory changes, four newly sculpted figures, and one missing.
Not shown was a new Luke Jedi figure - maybe they'll just repackage the old one. (It's what Kenner would have done!) New figure reveals today include Krrsantan, Fennec Shand, Boba Fett, Cad Bane, Grogu, a Tusken Raider, and The Mandalorian. There isn't a new vinyl cape in the bunch, but it appears Grogu just has a new accessory - the blue training backpack - and Mando may be the same as the 2022 version, but with the 2021 Moff Gideon Darksaber accessory. You be the judge.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Stormtrooper Commander (Gaming Greats, The Vintage Collection). It's a figure we've had a couple of times before, but this one uses a newer mold and does a nicer job with the paint applications. But is it worth it at the "exclusive tax" mark-up? Read on!
While not Star Wars, this one probably crosses over with those of you who are 40 or older, and love Kenner-style figures. Hasbro's Steve Evans posted on Instagram that their nifty Marvel Legends Retro 375 line is "resting." A lot of lines have years-long hiatuses - Zoids disappeared for almost 20 years (and barely reappeared), Indiana Jones took a nap for over a decade, so all is not without hope.
As there are no plans to release any more, you can probably afford to go back and buy the entire line somewhat cheaply Various lots and collections on eBay have been ranging from an average of $4-$10 per figure in some cases (this is how I got a lot of mine), so I'd recommend checking them out if you're into this sort of thing. The packaging has a thicker cardstock and better overal art than the Star Wars line, and while the figures share a ton of parts they're still pretty excellent.
I've been posting weekly reviews of them over at 16bit.com because I thought they were neat. This week is Wolverine!
The Instagram Post in question is embedded after the break.
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Vel Sartha (The Vintage Collection). It's a decent figure, but light on paint. The head is good, the articulation is fine - not great, but fine - so she isn't exactly impressive at the new suggested retail pricing. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Cassian Andor (Andor, Coat, The Vintage Collection). It's a pretty good figure and one of very few from the much-loved but less-viewed Disney+ series. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Luke Skywalker (Imperial Light Cruiser, The Vintage Collection). It's a retool of the Jedi Knight from a few years ago, but paler, and with a new belt. The new soft goods cloak hangs quite nicely! But the face could be better. Read on!
