We’re catching up on TVC reissues! The Attack Of The Clones Obi-Wan Kenobi figure reissue looks excellent. The revised paint operations are a notable improvement, and they finally got the hair color right. Hasbro also changed the colors throughout this figure. We took the time to break it all down for you by producing an all-new 76-image gallery complete with comparison shots and a breakdown of what separates the 2011 version from the 2022 new release in the Collector Notes. See this impressive figure updated in our RDRs now! There’s more difference here than you may realize.

The Aayla Secura 6-inch figure is getting a lot of praise, but it’s inaccurate to the character from Attack Of The Clones. However, you might not care about that detail. (more….)

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….)

In 1984, new packaging for Star Wars figures was introduced for the European market. A cost containment initiative, the new packaging sported three languages of the Return Of The Jedi logo for a “one size fits all” approach. Although a “three-logo” design was created for The Power Of The Force line (as evidenced on some ‘boxed’ toys), it wasn’t carried over to the basic figure line’s card design. They continued to use the three Return Of The Jedi logos instead. Although the word “Trilogo” is found nowhere on the packaging, the term is universally adopted by all Star Wars collectors to describe this line of figures.

We are finishing the Trilogo line up with the final 15 The Power Of The Force Kenner figures, and there weren’t any coins provided with them. Today we revisit Anakin Skywalker. This version features a revised image featuring all background details “blacked-out” or “removed” behind the character sketch. The Force spirit glow and forest details were removed in the Trilogo version. See the full card art and additional notes by revisiting 1985’s THE POWER OF THE FORCE Anakin Skywalker figure HERE.

Tonight’s Visual Guide update features The Black Series [Phase IV] Ahsoka Tano (The Clone Wars 02). Click below to check out this Walmart exclusive figure, and click here to read our full review.

Wow! Ahsoka Tano, based on The Clone Wars, is gorgeous. And you’d never know the figure is made from a lot of pre-existing parts. (more….)
