Coinciding with RETURN OF THE JEDI’s 40 year mark, Jazwares released the AT-AT seen on Endor into their Micro Galaxy Squadron line. It comes with eight one-inch figures. Much smaller than the vehicles that are intended for the standard 3.75 inch figures, this AT-AT makes for a nice desktop display piece. The interior is pretty … Continue reading Micro Galaxy Squadron AT-AT (Endor) 2023
Hasbro released the E-Wing last fall, as seen in the AHSOKA Disney Plus series. It comes with an exclusive droid figure. The sleek design is reminiscent of an X-Wing fighter and looks super cool. Play features include retractable landing legs, a sliding cockpit door, and a space that can fit various astromech (R2-D2 type) droid … Continue reading New Republic E-Wing & KE4-N4 (2024)
After a successful HasLab campaign the previous year, the Ghost finally arrived in December 2024. The famous ship from the REBELS cartoon series was also featured in the live action AHSOKA show and had a brief cameo in ROGUE ONE. The box has an AHSOKA label which irked some of the REBELS fans, but it … Continue reading HasLab Ghost 2024
Hasbro dropped the Halloween Clone Trooper into their six-inch STAR WARS line last August. The bright green skeleton decoration over the black armor makes for a striking image. Accessories include a zombie porg, treasure chest, and five chocolate bars that resemble Imperial beskar blocks. Notice the Jabba ghost on the lid of the chest. A … Continue reading Clone Trooper (Halloween Edition) 2024
In 1991-93, Timothy Zahn released the original Thrawn trilogy. Thirty years (and millions of sold copies) later, the story remains as popular as ever and Hasbro just dropped a figure 4-pack based on characters from book 3: THE LAST COMMAND. This belongs to the Black Series, Hasbro’s line of six-inch STAR WARS figures. They come … Continue reading Timothy Zahn’s THE LAST COMMAND Figure 4-Pack (2024)
Last year, Hasbro released some great toys tied to JEDI turning 40, including this set. I don’t always buy the retro collection figures because I already have most of the originals that they’re based on. However, this set was a must-have for the following reasons. First, Mon Mothma was never made during the original 1977-1985 … Continue reading RETURN OF THE JEDI Retro Collection Box Set 2023

They come packaged together in a box. Let’s take them out! Fantastic vintage style packaging and you have to love the gold character coins, a … Continue reading Kneesaa and Wicket 2-Pack (2023)
One of my favorite character designs from RETURN OF THE JEDI is Weequay. Such a cool looking alien, though he met with an untimely death by Luke’s lightsaber and the Sarlacc Pit. With JEDI turning 40, Hasbro put an emphasis on releasing figures from the film in 2023, including this impressive sculpt of Weequay. Let’s … Continue reading Weequay 2023 Figure
This outstanding set was part of Kenner’s first wave of EMPIRE STRIKES BACK toys. Of course, this snow fort isn’t featured in the film, but Kenner correctly understood that kids playing with STAR WARS figures didn’t just remake scenes from the movies. Kids created their own adventures, and Kenner sometimes made their own creations, such … Continue reading Imperial Attack Base Play-set (1980)
The N-1 Starfighter dropped last fall and it’s a beauty. As seen on Disney Plus in THE BOOK OF BOBA FETT and THE MANDALORIAN Season 3, Hasbro did a great job bringing this from television to our toy shelves. Here’s more pictures from the box. It comes with exclusive figures of The Mandalorian and Grogu, … Continue reading The Mandalorian’s N-1 Starfighter (2023)
