Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Wuher (2025 - The Vintage Collection). I was happy with the old one from 2000, but this one is better. If we never got this update with the HasLab Cantina, I'd still have been happy with the 25-year-old release - but wow. Painted chest hair. Facial bruising. Bags under the eyes. A separately molded hair piece. Incredible articulation. And, for some reason, an alternate hand which adds no actual functionality since his regular mitts can hold glasses just fine. He's got a blaster too. I'd say "get this one" but that ship has theoretically sailed unless you're going to the Bay of E. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Snaggletooth (Cantina Adventure Set - The Vintage Collection). A more or less modern mold painted to look like the very first Sears exclusive Star Wars figure! This guy has a blaster, three other figures, and a diorama - and the price is pretty fair for what you get in the box. The boots are molded in silver (rather than painted) plus he has pale skin and that thin red smile. It's distinctive, and you should probably buy two. Read on!

It's time! And you know what for.

The Retro Collection Dump has been updated, now that we have confirmation that Garindan's shawl/hood is a cloth part.   My many lists and tallies have been updated to reflect Garindan, CZ-3, and R4-M9 reveals. 

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Shadows of the Empire - is it time to come back? The endless vehicle upgrade cycle - is it over? Of course not.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R4-TR3 (Droid Factory). It's from 2024, and it's kinda great with super-colorful lights, but also, it's a decoration and maybe it will fit in hte background of your Endor display.  It's sold out, but you can still find one. Read on!

Unnecessary commentary? Why sure!   Here's the TLDR on the 30 minute stream.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Obi-Wan Kenobi (Blue Tech Speeder Bike / Epic World of Action). I've never seen this in a store - but you can get it online. The bike is a nifty new mold with swing-out wings, rolling wheels, and a firing rocket. Obi-Wan is a mix of unique parts and elements shared with other figures - and a great head sculpt for a kid item. If you can find it for a fair price, especially at or under $20, get it. Read on!

This week in Star Wars Q&A - International distribution - would you believe, as an American who buys toys in America, this is not my area of expertise? Better figure stands - you do have options that may support a larger figure.

Also it's almost the 10th anniversary of The Force Awakens, which is a more interesting thing to discuss than Avatar 3.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Chewbacca (2025 - The Vintage Collection) . It's the new one, but it's also made up of a lot of parts from the 2004 figure still. They did a great job back then, but I'd also love to see what a 100%-new figure might look like. This one can sit a little better, and the head paint is good - but the bandolier might get in the way of hanging out on a chair in your Cantina if you don't angle him right. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R2-H25 (Droid Factory). This one was unusual - it went up at $14.99, then went up to $17.99, and is now old out. Other than the hat, it looks like it would fit in with your movie droids - and I love that. Should you track it down? Read on!

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Next year - where are the pre-orders? HasLab 375 - is it over?
