Today we look at Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) from the Retro Collection. Um, OK. (more….)

Thank you for reading Research Droids Reviews: Season 14!

Welcome to another entry in our The Vintage Collection: The Ninety Six column. Hasbro recently committed to collectors that they will be “focusing” on characters in The Vintage Collection that fall under “The Ninety Six” banner. If you’re new to this, it means that there needs a modern counterpart for every classic Kenner figure. Between 2020 and 2021, Hasbro’s made an admirable effort by focusing on these characters. But there is more work to be done, and we’ll figure out where we are step by step. Today we assess Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight Outfit).

Full Story

For tonight’s Visual Guide update we are adding the first figure from The Vintage Collection wave 27: Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) (VC175). Click below for our full Visual Guide. You can also read our full review of this figure right here.

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.

Today we revisit Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight Outfit). As one of the most popular action figures of 1983, not much was done to update the card art of the figure for the Trilogo run. See the full card art and additional notes by revisiting 1983’s RETURN OF THE JEDI Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight Outfit) figure HERE.

Here is the single-release version of Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) (VC175). It only took Hasbro a decade to get us a definitive and proper version of this figure in The Vintage Collection. (more….)

If you think that the updated “photorealistic” technology is the only thing that sets apart the 2019 version of Luke Skywalker (Endor) (VC23) from the original 2010 release, you’re in for some surprises. Almost a full decade sets the figures apart from each other, and there is more you need to know.

Luke Skywalker (Endor) (VC23) is another one of our favorite reviews in our RDRs. We’ve also spent hours updating the Photo Gallery (which now sports 76 images and a wealth of comparison shots), updating text and new Editor’s and Collector Notes all to educate you on all the newness this figure brings to the table.
