Let’s look at the ARC Trooper Captain which is technically a “rehash” in The Vintage Collection. But it can also be seen as a “new” figure too! (more….)

Yes, I’m on an alliteration kick today. But, holy cow. Did you receive your Walmart exclusive wave of The Vintage Collection Clone Wars figures? They’re arriving via droves of boxes, both undersized and oversized, bubble envelopes, and in as many parcels as Walmart sees fit. How has the condition of your figures been? Did you get your complete order, or are some still on their way? As one Instagram reader put it, this wave is GOAT, and we can’t wait to review them all. Stay tuned for more! Special thanks to JTA reader Mike R. for the alert and image.

It’s like a dream come true. After many years of telling collectors that characters from Genndy Tartakovsky’s Clone Wars were off-limits, the tides have turned and Hasbro produced a sub-line of figures based on the micro-series that are as beautiful as they are endearing and nostalgic. Let’s take a look at Aayla Secura! (more….)

There’s been quite a bit of squawking about placing Genndy Tartakovsky Clone Wars figures on classic Kenner-inspired packaging. Our friends at Blue Milk put together a concept that borrows elements from Kenner’s classic Droids and Ewoks lines. Ultimately, it appears to make more sense for an animated series to get packaging that mimics past animated toy lines. What do you think? Would the packaging represented below gone over better for those who criticized the standard The Vintage Collection packaging?

I get that the recently revealed Genndy Tartakovsky Clone Wars action figures for The Vintage Collection are getting a mixed reception from collectors. Still, for me, this is some of the most exciting news in recent memory as a Star Wars collector, and that’s with me accepting they’re imperfect. (more….)

There have been a significant number of changes made to the re-released The Vintage Collection See-Threepio (C-3PO) (VC06) figure. We took the time to break it all down for you by producing an all-new 68-image gallery complete with comparison shots, dioramas, and a breakdown of what separates the 2010 version from the 2020 new release. (Hasbro has released this figure every five years since 2010!) You can probably find See-Threepio (C-3PO) (VC06) at your local TARGET and WALMART stores now. If not, orders should begin shipping from the “Fan Channel” shortly. As usual, there’s more difference here than you may believe, including a possible retooling that benefits the aesthetics of the head sculpt! Be sure to acclimate yourself to the many changes!

We have another The Black Series exclusive to add to our Visual Guides tonight. Click below to check out the Walgreens exclusive Clone Commander Obi-Wan Kenobi. We also have a full review of this figure right here.

Clone Commander Obi-Wan Kenobi is a relatively excellent action figure that has some aesthetics and accuracy issues, but you probably won’t care. The figure has one of the greatest head sculpts we’ve seen in the 6″ line. But there’s more. Find out in our Research Droids Reviews today!
