"A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...."

Wicket confronts Leia after discovering her in the Endor forest.

Is “The Ewok” necessary after “Wicket” for this figure’s name? it’s a bit puzzling that Kenner/Hasbro decided to give Wicket W. Warrick this naming convention. That’s like calling Chewbacca "Chewbacca The Wookiee," or Bossk "Bossk The Trandoshan." It’s a bit redundant and certainly unnecessary. Regardless, most collectors were surprised by the announcement of Wicket The Ewok in the Action Collection line. Relegated for Walmart’s exclusive program, Wicket The Ewok is an all-new figure, which is rare for a exclusive products. Typically they share existing tooling. But that’s not true in this case. The all-new figure is adorable but doesn’t have a screen-accurate likeness to the on-screen character. You can tell it’s Wicket The Ewok because of the overall finished product, but if you start nitpicking, you’ll find how many details are off from the character. Hasbro worked in six points of articulation into Wicket The Ewok. A swivel head is joined by swivel shoulders and swivel hips, with the inclusion of a left swivel forearm. Wicket The Ewok comes lightly accessorized, but Hasbro designed a leather-like cowl that has incredible accuracy to the movie costume. They approached it with multiple pieces and worked in real stitching for optimal realism. Also included is a long spear, and it looks like it matches the one seen in Return Of The Jedi. Wicket The Ewok is a fun release and has many components of the character from Episode VI. But ultimately, the figure falls a little short when hoping for a definitive release. Regardless, you’ll love this figure despite its issues.
