They are huge (12") but damn once they are on the card back they do look fab. I nabbed the Boba last year when Gentle Giant brought these out, but gotta grab that Stormie this time around.

Let's be clear I was never an Ewok fan, but when Wicket came out and we reviewed him, I changed my mind, and he needed a companion! This is clearly one of the best Ewoks ever made by Hasbro and well worth owning. Movie accurate, plenty of accessories, full articulation for a mini figure, and a great paint job.

Ok at first this guy did not grab me when it sneaked out online several weeks ago, so passed. What a dummy I was! Still as prt of our recent Vintage haul this is clearly one of the best in the Vintage collection. Up there with the Gamo guard and phase 2 clone trooper. A kick ass facial scuplt, plenty of accessories, full articulation (ish), and a great paint job. All of that makes this one mega troop builder!

It takes a lot to beat the VOTC Han Solo, arguably the BEST Han Solo ever made... Does this come close? Watch the video and you make up your mind. Has we never had the VOTC Han, I'd say this figure is pretty amazing. Mega detailed, great accessories, full articulation, and a good paint job. (A little dody on our review figure)

Wow! This figure is amazing. Mega detailed, great weapons, full (ish) articulation, and painted with character in every crevice and buckle on him. Buy him!

They're here! They are finally here. The famous smuggler and Wookiee tandem have come back from the Vintage era in an all new 12" form!
Check out the special Gentle Giant 12" Vintage Jumbos of Han Solo and Chewbacca over at Brian's Toys!
Some more figures at a failry escalated price, so no saving for USA customers but still cheaper for all of the rest of the world at our favourite ebay seller tunghori
The vintage Han is looking good but I get the feeling it's still not a patch on the VOTC Han. Bom looks set to be awesome as is Logray, and more of the previously announced Rebel Trooper which some recent scourge of the earth were snapping up then scalping people for $30 each for : (
Expect our usual YouTube Star Wars HD Figure reviews in the next week.
Looking very likely to be a prototype for a vintage release, the above tauntaun has surfaced on Rebelscum. Therefore you can likely expect a new Han & Luke ball jointed hip figure set to come!
Add in another very likely shot of a B-wing fighter on sandtroopers and it's rumour a go-go!

Another awsesome facial sculpt, with some cool horns, and a pretty decent change of jedi robes with this hessian like cape. Articulated all over (Yay!) This Jedi is here to kick arse and he does a grand job at it. Find out the stuff we don't like, and see what we do.

That's one sweet looking trooper and a bit of an upscale to the original Hasbro 3.5" figure we saw further below.
A whopping $225 USD and available in the fall (Autumn).
Does this mean were getting a 12" Joker Squad from gentle Giant? Certainly as the below 3.5" versions sold out pretty quickly, I can see a few selling, but female stormies tend to sell healthily! See more images on Gentle Giants facebook page. And while your there pop on over and say hello at www.facebook.com/flyguydotnet : )
And I want rant about ankle articulation on more figures in our video reviews! Pfft! Back in the dizay we were content with moveable arms and legs! So more from Gentle Giant as they launch another in thier 'Jumbo Ass' Vintage collection (as I call it) and this time the Death Squad Commander.
$75 USD Available in the fall (Autumn) this year.
Get a look at all the 'Jumbo Ass' Kenner figures in our hi res image gallery.

Yet another stunner! Hasbro have taken the Vintage line and done us proud. Rather than repack here, they have done what the line set out to do, by making some of the ultimate renditions of characters we have seen in three and half inches of plastic. Everything is new...and again getting this in hand, really shows you how incredibly cool this guy is. One slight issue we can forgive, but we explain that and show you the last AT-RT driver to be released by way of comparison and even put this guy on to the AT-RT walker itself and show you all the detail.
