Han Solo (Bespin Outfit)

  My very first General-Purpose Han Solo was precisely the Bespin Outfit version from Kenner‘s vintage line, and while it lacked the iconic feel of the ANH scoundrel, at least it did fit in... 

Cobra Black Dragon

I know. It’s been forever since I reviewed the Black Dragon Pilot. I’ve taken pictures on more than one occasion. They’ve just never been as good as I wanted. Part of the issue stem... 

Cobra Trooper (GI Joe: Renegades)

I’ve reviewed a number of the Renegades over the past few weeks, but what about Cobra? Don’t worry dear reader, Hasbro provided us with a generic style Cobra trooper to face off against those... 

Cad Bane w/ TODO 360 (CW42)

  One of the new characters introduced in the Clone Wars TV show is Cad Bane, the guy that gets billed as the top bounty hunter in the galaxy after Jango Fett meets his grisly fate at Geonosis.   Overall,... 

Cable

Cable is one of those Marvel characters I could not wait to see made as part of the Marvel Universe line. Was it worth the wait? Well, yes and no.   First I must admit that I have been a fan of Cable... 

The State of Star Wars & GI Joe Collecting

When I was listening to my weekly podcasts this week, there was GI Joe in my Star Wars and Star Wars in my GI Joe. At the end of the newest Star Wars Action News, Arnie was seeking feedback on what people... 

Tunnel Rat (GI Joe: Renegades)

Tunnel Rat was the character I was most worried about making a translation from animation to figure. Not only did Hasbro do a great job with him. They gave him a ton of accessories to boot. Appearance: This... 

Rebel Fleet Trooper

  The very first time we see rebel soldiers is during the boarding action on the Tantive IV, in Star   Wars: A New Hope   Luckily, Hasbro decided to re-visit this character class in their... 

Scarlet (GI Joe: Renegades)

  I’ve never been a big fan of Scarlet. But her Renegades incarnation has changed my mind. Both the update to her character and her outfit made a lot of sense to me. As such it only makes sense,... 

Cyclops (Blue Team Uniform)

  Cyclops isn’t necessarily one of my favorite Marvel characters in terms of his personality, but the way he is depicted in media always seems to translate well into action figure form. There... 

Hydra Solider

. The thing that has really struck me about the Marvel movie lines is the lack of baddies for the heroes to face off against. All three of the individual Avengers movie lines have been over ripe with the... 

Ahsoka Tano (CW44)

  Despite Hasbro Mexico’s best efforts, I still buy the odd Clone Wars figure when distribution doesn’t suck. Case in point, a figure that was allegedly released at the beginning of 2011,... 

Steel Brigade

The Steel Brigade trooper must have his fans at Hasbro. The Pit Commando got his helmet as an accessory and the VAMP repaint had one as a driver. This version is more in the classic mail-away colors. Appearance: Much... 

Darth Nil & Delia Blue (Star Wars Comic Packs)

  Even though the Hasbro 2-figure Comic Packs are no longer in production, the general consensus was that these were pretty good value for the money, by including two action figures and a reprint... 

Cobra Commander (Renegades)

I’ve always kind of felt bad for Cobra Commander. He never gets any respect and somebody thought he’d look cool in stirrup pants. But that was the 80′s. In the GI Joe Renegades animated... 

Duke (GI Joe Renegades)

  I’ve never been a huge Duke fan. He just always seemed a little stuck up and bossy to me. I also wasn’t entirely sold on GI Joe: Renegades when it premiered. However, listening to the... 

Darth Vader and Stromtrooper (Jedi Force)

  I was somewhat puzzled when Hasbro announced that they were going to stop making the Galactic Heroes line in favor of the new Jedi Force figures. I was never a big Galactic Heroes collector, but... 

Ivan “Whiplash” Vanko

When the visual checklists for the upcoming Iron Man 2 waves of figures were made public, around summer 2010, I was actually excited by the possibility of getting a figure of Whiplash in this collection.... 

Whiplash – Iron Man 2

I’ve been putting off writing this for almost a year. Why? Well hopefully by the end you will know. Whiplash is one of just a couple of figures in the Iron Man line with a human face. And I think... 

Qui-Gon Jinn & Eopie

With all the up coming hype for Star Wars Episode 1 in 3D, I’m hoping we see some Qui Gon love. In the mean time, I guess I’ll tide myself over with this. From last year, this Qui Gon &...
