Review: Jedi Training Academy - STAR TOURS

Here is a blast from the past, and an item we recently realized we never got to add to our RDRs yet. Check out the Jedi Training Academy from the Hasbro-produced STAR TOURS line. It’s a nice set and gives us a generic human male Jedi Master that can be used to represent the many unidentified Jedi Knights during the Battle of Geonosis. You also get three Jedi Padawans and Darth Vader in this set too. Learn more and see if you can secure this RARE set today by checking it out in our Research Droids Reviews today!

By popular request, we’re adding The Original Trilogy Collection Jedi High Council Scene Packs which were all Toys R Us exclusives from 2004. Hasbro saved the best set for last and it’s only because of one figure. Shaak Ti turned heads and was a significant ugrade from the one released in the basic figure line a couple of years earlier. It still holds up well today. Let’s finish up with Jedi High Council (Featuring Shaak Ti, Agen Kolar & Stass Allie) (Scene 4). It’s the focus of our Research Droids Reviews today!

Finally, we have an advanced look for you on the Walgreens exclusive Obi-Wan Kenobi (Force Spirit) figure. If you recall, JTA broke the news of this upcoming figure back in January. The figure is alright we suppose, but it’s nothing incredibly noteworthy. New collectors are already clamoring how amazing this figure looks, but longtime collectors have long been aware of this approach Hasbro utilized to recreate the “Force spirit” effect. It was first done with the very popular 2007 TAC Anakin Skywalker’s Spirit (30 45) figure. Obi-Wan Kenobi is based on the San Diego Comic Con exclusive Obi-Wan Kenobi figure’s sculpt but this time has been cast in translucent plastic and has been given a new sheer soft-goods purple robe. It looks good, but it’s also familiar. Check out the photo gallery now in our Research Droids Reviews.

As soon as the news broke that Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi were part of the Star Wars [The Last Jedi] line, most collectors wanted to know how they differed from past versions. We just found the new Star Wars [The Last Jedi] Obi-Wan Kenobi at Walmart this morning, much to our shock and surprise. The figure has a beautiful sculpt and its deco is interesting. Hasbro utilized the “dot matrix” application to add streaks and highlights to his hair. The robe shell is removable and his arms are attached via ball-socket articulation, certainly a strange approach for an action figure in the Star Wars line. He comes with his signature lightsaber as well. There are rumors that he is to make some sort of an appearance in Episode VIII, so this action figure seems to help add more fuel to that fire. Check out our rough early RDR page by clicking the image below.

As soon as the news broke that Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi were part of the Star Wars [The Last Jedi] line, most collectors wanted to know how they differed from past versions. With thanks to Hasbro and Litzky PR for providing us this sample, we’re able to give you some details. The review will be coming in the near future, but here are the nuts and bolts: Yoda comes with eight points of articulation. The shoulders are ball-jointed, the head is a reverse ball-socket joint and his ankles come with standard ball-socket articulation. He also comes with a swivel waist. What he doesn’t come with are two separately moving legs. There are no hip joints and his lower body is one chunk of plastic. His likeness is excellent. His coloring is OK. And his accessories are based on his appearance from Star Wars Episode II: Attack Of The Clones. There are rumors that he is to make an appearance in Episode VIII, so this action figure seems to help add more fuel to that fire. Check out our rough early RDR page by clicking the image below.
