After two disappointing releases, The Black Series Clone Wars Mace Windu is a delight. Find out why you’ll want this one. (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….)

The Walmart exclusive Clone Wars General Grievous isn’t a great action figure. We wanted to enjoy it more than we did, but Hasbro took too many shortcuts. (more….)

As you know, we’ve just finished up reviewing what many are calling the “greatest of all time” wave of The Vintage Collection Clone Wars figures. Yes, the wave was nothing more than simple repaints, but it added the Clone Wars entertainment logo to The Vintage Collection repertoire and added new characters to the line for the first time. If you passed on this wave of figures, you’re missing out badly. With its runaway success, we believe that Hasbro and Walmart can work together again to develop two additional waves with little to no new tooling while making collectors inordinately happy simultaneously. Click through to check out our suggestions and the figures they can use to quickly assemble two more unique figure assortments for us. (more….)

Hasbro insists on using the same old tooling for The Vintage Collection Battle Droid figure from the Clone Wars micro-series. It poses well, but it’s not a great action figure! (more….)

It’s official. The Vintage Collection Clone Wars wave has ht brick and mortar. JTA reader ShipGirlLover found them in Philadelphia. Now is your chance to find mint samples of these figures!

The Vintage Collection Luminara Unduli Clone Wars figure received a remarkable update, and it’s the first entry of Luminara figures added to The Vintage Collection! It’s another gorgeous action figure in the line. It’s impressive what Photo Real did for this tooling too! (more….)
