Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Hevy Battle Droid (The Vintage Collection). It's shiny and red, and the paint is really good. But it's a Battle Droid, so maybe you skipped it - and you shouldn't have. Read on!

It's golden, but not really a golden addition to any collection. Stormtrooper (Skywalker Saga, Gold). It's a 2018 figure, minus an accessory, and painted gold for 2019. And in my case, the neck snapped right out of the box. Read on!

As 2020 comes to an end for an alleged second time, let's look at this 2019 Darth Vader (Skywalker Saga, Gold). It's and older figure, but after two years I can safely say that having just opened one, the gold paint sticks to itself and I don't like that. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: The Emperor (The Vintage Collection).  It's new! But it's a 2005 figure with a new hood, new robe, and some new accessories - and it's still a 2005 figure, and the PulseCon variant's head is a better one. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Obi-Wan Kenobi (The Black Series). It's a PulseCon reissue with the photoreal paint job, and it's a pretty solid improvement. Read on!

It's new! Modeled after the newer revised armor of Boba Fett, this Healey Made Raider (Revenge) is available now for $25, until it sells out. The same mold has been issued before, but it looks like it has a new cloth element. It also costs about the same as Hasbro's new Boba Fett figure in The Vintage Collection, so take a look and click here to check availability.

The funding for the HasLab Star Wars™ The Black Series Rancor ended just under an hour ago, capping out at about 8,500 of a required 9,000 orders before numbers started reducing down to 832 (as of 9:49 PM Pacific) and the project was removed from the HasLab archive page. For now you can still see the pictures and copy for Malakili, and it is unknown what this means for future projects.

As it did not fund, we do not anticipate this project to see production, but it will be interesting if Hasbro tries to make a similarly sized - but simpler and cheaper - creature with less articulation at a lower cost. (I am not betting on it.)
