It's time for another Q&A flashback to talk about the future which didn't exist in the past!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Star Wars Figure of the Day: Day 3,264: B5-R4 (The Book of Boba Fett, Droid Factory) is an actual new figure! We don't get a ton of new characters these days, so it's exciting when one shows up. Carson Teva has a unique jacket with tiny patches printed on it and shows Hasbro's increasingly impressive engineering with good articulation. He can stand, he can hold his blaster, and most importantly he can fit in most X-Wings (as far as I tested.) Great job on this one, you should get him. Read on!

It's time for another Q&A flashback for me to see how wrong I was!

Today: What about remaking the original toys? (From 2002!) Proof positive that opinions can change with time.

In case you missed it (like I did), Healey Made has a new 3 3/4-inch X-Raider action figure in stock. Sculpted by Walrus Man sculptor Stephen Geddes, and painted like Fisher-Price Adventure People, I just ordered one. I like these guys a bunch.

If you like Retro Collection-style Kenner figures, these fit right in.  If we're seeing this Raider, I imagine the Assassin and Trooper figures will be getting a similar treatment next month.

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Clone corpulence! Should these guys be hitting the Soloflex? Do we have any jokes that aren't dated? Also what does the line say about us as a culture?

Also, we're out of questions for next week. We will, however, be posting old questions with new answers and commentary all week long! Send in new questions or I might just dip back into the archives.

It's time for another Q&A flashback! The present is blah, so let's roll around in the mud of yesteryear like the hogs we are.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Luke Skywalker (Yavin, The Retro Collection) . This is the sixth and final figure left to look at from this year's set, and maybe this looks to be all we're getting for Retro for the year. Luke doesn't look quite like the 1978 figures out of context, but placed next to the other original action figures he seems to fit a lot better. He stands, he sits, and for some reason he feels a lot like the similarly not-quite-right Rebel Fleet Trooper.

These sets may still be in a Target near you. Weirdly, one near me just put them out for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I'd recommend the set as part of a larger collection, but I don't think anyone is buying these as one-offs. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Imperial Officer (Generic Human Male in Gray, The Vintage Collection). You've seen this sculpt before, you'll see it again. The figure is from 2023 and with any luck you'll have a big playset in which to put him some day. I don't think he's modeled after a specific character, and if he's based on a specific real person we haven't met him yet. But it's a nice figure. Read on!

Today: Rebel, Rebel? (From 2016!) No, not the Hamburglar.

All-new! All-different!

This week in Star Wars Q&A - Lets talk Geonosis and the Gunship! Do we know anything? Not really. Blockade Runner speculation! Ditto.

Everything this week is HasLab-related, so if you love that kind of talk? You're in luck, because now we know what a $1,000 LEGO Death Star looks like.
