The Walmart exclusive 1-JAC 6-inch figure uses most of the previously released 4-LOM. So why does 1-JAC cost more money than 4-LOM? (more….)

Do you remember the scene from “Misery” when Annie Wilkes exclaimed “He didn’t get out of the cockadoodie car!”? That’s about where we are with the Walmart exclusive Imperial Gunner figure from The Vintage Collection. Apparently, Hasbro believes they can pull the wool over longtime TVC collectors’ eyes so they can pass off an old figure from a Disney Star Wars source as an OT character when it’s entirely inaccurate!

Get ready for more aggravation. The Walmart exclusive “The Ninety Six” figures are clearly for carded collectors looking to have a modern counterpart to the original vintage Kenner run of Star Wars action figures. But once again, they’re are arriving in padded envelopes, and most samples are being reported and “severely damaged,” ours included. How difficult is it to code these items as collectibles so they can guarantee they get packed in a box instead of a flimsy envelope? Let us know of your arrivals.

The Vintage Collection Bespin Security Guard (Helder Spinoza) is the best figure of 2022, and we say that knowing it has imperfections and is 50% reused parts. And it’s hard to believe we waited 42 years for the FIRST modern counterpart to the classic 1980 The Empire Strikes Back vintage Kenner release. It’s like waiting for a new ABBA record. But it’s finally here, and it’s divine. (more….)

A decade ago, all of the accessories with the Ahsoka Tano & Grogu two-pack would have been included in the basic carded release. But not with the current Hasbro Star Wars team. No way, and no how. (more….)

Holy cow. Hasbro is giving The Black Series collectors the shaft. So much for the line with higher profit margins. As much as we hoped to adore the ARC Trooper Captain, we quickly learned how lazy Hasbro was once again with a new character added to the 6-inch line. (more….)
