It’s only over a year late, but late is better than never! We find The Vintage Collection Jabba The Hutt Action Playset with all-new Salacious B. Crumb and 8D8 mostly lovely, but we won’t hold back on where it needs to be criticized. Check it out in our Research Droids Reviews today. (more….)
Thank you for reading Research Droids Reviews: Season 16!

Here is another figure we had to wait a long time for, although we still don’t have an accurate replacement. That aside, Clone Commander Rex (Bracca Mission) is another fantastic action figure for The Vintage Collection. Check it out in our Research Droids Reviews today (more….)

We had to wait TWO DECADES for Hasbro to update Princess Leia Organa from A New Hope on a vintage-styled card. And this is the first one that is super-articulated. It’s not perfect, but it’s pretty close. Check it out in our Research Droids Reviews today (more….)

We can almost forgive Hasbro for initially making the Stormtrooper (VC231) figure a Walmart exclusive because they’ve done their part to make it more widely available again. Hasbro re-adds the Stormtrooper to the lineup with enhanced paint operations and card art. The figure hasn’t looked better. We took the time to summarize all the new details for you by producing an all-new 80-image gallery complete with comparison shots and a breakdown of what separates the 2022 version from the 2024 reissue in the Collector Notes. See this essential figure, which has been updated in our RDRs now! There’s more difference here than you may realize.

Hasbro thinks so little of their longtime collector base that they believe you are too dumb to notice that you can get 100% all-new tooling and seven accessories for $16.99 or an 80% reused-parts figure also with seven accessories but for $24.99 and label it a “Deluxe” figure. That said. The Vintage Collection Professor Huyang is a fantastic figure; you likely will want doubles of it. (more….)

What an impressive re-release! Hasbro FINALLY gets Captain Cassian Andor up to speed with a remarkable PhotoReal update. The figure hasn’t looked better. Check out the new version of the fan-favorite character. It comes with a stunning paint job that brings out the likeness and is a worthy inclusion to the line now. We took the time to summarize all the new details for you by producing an all-new 56-image gallery complete with comparison shots and a breakdown of what separates the 2018 version from the 2024 reissue in the Collector Notes. See this gorgeous figure updated in our RDRs now! There’s more difference here than you may realize.

The Vintage Collection Finn (Starkiller Base) figure has some minor improvements from the figure released almost nine years ago, but why did Hasbro wait so long to add this crucial character from The Force Awakens into the line? It sounds a bit suspect and racist to us! (more….)
