By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, April 4, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: 3PO Protocol Droid (Red, Droid Factory). This is not the carded one - but there's a comparison photo in the review. This is the one from the bins that no longer exist. The red color is a little different and the white eyes pop nicely. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,121: Morgan Elsbeth (The Retro Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, April 2, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Morgan Elsbeth (The Retro Collection). I just saw her on clearance at Target over the weekend, but she's been scarce. This figure has no accessories, and is missing some key make-up detail, but is otherwise pretty excellent.  If you see her on sale, definitely pick up one.   Read on!

By Adam Pawlus — Sunday, March 31, 2024

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Casepack Sizes Will we ever go large again? Not for collector lines. And The Best Advancements in 3 3/4-inch Figures. Things have gotten a lot more impressive, even if you don't want to admit it.

Be sure you send in your questions, the mail bag is empty. We have no questions for next week's update, which may mean I get a break. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,120: R5-D4 (The Mandalorian, The Vintage Collection)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, March 28, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R5-D4 (The Mandalorian, The Vintage Collection). This looks a lot like a figure from 12 years ago, at about twice the price, but is cheaper than buying that release in today's market. It lacks The Mandalorian-specific deco, but if you have a Sandcrawler that needs droids? This is good. Read on!

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,119: R5-D4 (The Mandalorian, The Black Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, March 26, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R5-D4 (The Mandalorian, The Black Series). There was a new R2-D2 mold last year, and this R5-D4 figure uses it - with a bad motivator, and a new dome. It's clean, and lacks the Mando-specific dirt patterns. But other than that, it's a perfectly nice droid figure. Read on!

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Build your armies! Or don't, who cares. What's next for Epic Hero Series Figures? Heck if I know. Wait - I kind of know. You should read this.

Also a new The Vintage Collection HasLab is expected May 4. Want to watch me speculate about what it might be? I got it right last time.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,118: The Mandalorian (Epic Hero Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Thursday, March 21, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: The Mandalorian (Epic Hero Series). This is a very nice figure - it doesn't have all of the deco as other similarly sized figures, but it's a better figure. The exaggerated bright silver Beskar armor is gorgeous, the Darksaber is fantastic, the pistol ain't bad, and the cape is a clip-on around the neck. He can fit in your The Vintage Collection vehicles, too. He's also really easy to find at Walmart as they seem to be getting solid cases of just Mando, and also Darth Vader, but Mando is the better figure. Read on!

Spaceballs: The Action Figure Auction

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, March 19, 2024

Currently a mere $27,000, this Heritage Auctions listing for Spaceballs (MGM, 1987), Group of (5) Spaceballs Action Figures are the real deal - that is to say, movie props, as there are no licensed action figures for the movie.

There's clearly demand for these, and if you really want them, this auction listing ends in two days.

In it, you get Barf, Lone Starr, Princess Vespa, Dot Matrix, and of course, Dark Helmet.

Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,117: Ahsoka Tano (Epic Hero Series)

By Adam Pawlus — Tuesday, March 19, 2024

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Ahsoka Tano (Epic Hero Series). This is a new mold, and I've seen her online and in the cardboard Easter dumps at Walmart - and this is a great figure. Other than the lack of a waist joint, she feels like a sturdy 1990s figure with nice clear lightsabers, the ability to stand easily, and freely moving joints. In short, this one is a toy first and is all the better for it. I'd recommend picking her up - the face sculpt is really excellent. Read on!
