Many Fifth Brother action figures have been produced through the years, including a “shampoo bottle.” But check out the Retro Collection version. It’s pretty cool. (more….)

Only some characters are worthy of soft goods in the Retro Collection. Check out the Grand Inquisitor. Hopefully, the super-articulated version isn’t far behind. (more….)

Why didn’t Hasbro produce the Retro Collection’s NED-B figure for The Vintage Collection first? And where is the character’s droid blaster? (more….)

Holy cow! If dealing with Disney Star Wars means we’ll get figures like The Vintage Collection Darth Vader (The Dark Times) action figure, then so be it because this is the BEST 3.75-INCH DARTH VADER Hasbro ever produced. That’s not an exaggeration. This action figure can do ANYTHING! By the way, it’s hilarious that they gave TVC collectors an all-new figure with interchangeable hands and just gave TBS6 collectors a repack. Didn’t they have better profit margins with TBS6? Oh well. You MUST check out this work of art! (more….)

Hasbro used a previous figure for the Darth Vader character in the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney+ series. Check it out! (more….)

The Vintage Collection Reva (Third Sister) is an excellent action figure. But will that matter at all if no one likes the character? (more….)

“Wandering” sounds so aimless. But Hasbro shows collectors their drive and passion for The Vintage Collection line is anything but aimless with the Obi-Wan Kenobi (Wandering Jedi) figure. Besides, you have to learn more about the L0-LA59 accessories included here. Hasbro gives us more “stuff” in a basic carded release than in their “Deluxe” figures sub-line. And it’s a fantastic addition to the line. (more….)

Today is January 30, 2022, and that means it’s been ten years since Hasbro released the Star Wars [The Phantom Menace 3D] line. Where does the time go? Although revered as a controversial lineup of a motley crew of products, it contained some of the best items we ever received from Hasbro. Yes, and it contained some of the worst products as well. Many blame Lucasfilm for the deluge of wave 1 products in this line that flooded stores everywhere. It’s believed they marketed this event as a new film, and stores bought up the products like there was no tomorrow. It would explain such an overage of products on the street date. Collectors would find “TPM 3D” products nearly everywhere for many years.
In the confusion of perplexing re-releases, overcharged 5POA action figures, and a deluge of products that rotted on shelves for years afterward, it’s easy to forget that the line did bring collectors some amazing newness and goodness. Let’s take a stroll down memory lane and recapture the good, the bad, and the ugly that this line brought to the Star Wars collecting community.

If you were actively collecting during the fabulous The Original Trilogy Collection in 2004, you’re aware that Hasbro introduced the first “Vintage Kenner” carded figures, much to the excitement and amazement of the entire Star Wars collecting community. The Hasbro team back then realized the importance of the 1978 Star Wars toy line and the main characters that should be part of it. When choosing four characters for placement on the replica 1978 STAR WARS cards, Hasbro wisely chose Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia Organa, Han Solo, and Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi. These four main heroes are synonymous with the Star Wars branding. The modern counterparts started a fire in collectors to see every original Kenner figure updated in vintage Kenner packaging. So why are these four characters still conspicuously absent from The Vintage Collection after eight active years? (more….)
