Even though these Throwback Reviews have a shotgun approach across the history of the line, if we can review successive figures that have a bit of a theme, we do.  Yesterday we reviews Dexter Jettster who informed Obi-Wan Kenobi about those cloners on Kamino.  Today we review one of those cloners with 2002’s Taun We figure.  This figure is so bad, I immediately regret the theme concept.  I should have reviewed FX-7 instead.

The one per case Ree-Yees and Starsher figures are back in stock at Hasbro Toy Shop.  There are no known carry forward plans for these figures at this time, and they sold out the last time they were listed, so get ‘em while the gettin’s good.  Don’t forget the code SUPER20 to get 20% off (assuming it’s still valid).

We just received a report that the 20” Jakks Pacific Darth Maul figure has hit Massachusetts which is towards the tail end of the distribution march.  Click through for the full sized image.

While Attack of the Clones is a total drag of a movie, a lot of the characters were visually interesting and make for neat toys. While the design of Dexter Jettster is questionable, the toy translates admirably and is the focus of today’s Throwback Review.  This is as close as you will ever get to owning a Mel action figure unless Funko gets really wacky.

Most fans think back fondly to the Power of the Jedi era.  Sure the figures are now dated in terms of articulation, but the line felt fresh because for every core character, there seemed to be one obscure offering.  This Sith Apprentice Darth Maul is one example and is the focus of today’s Throwback Review.

Moichendizing.  Moichendizing.  Moichendizing. I popped into Toys R Us this evening and spotted a totally gratuitous licensed product that I regret not buying.  $7.99 will buy you a deck of playing cards that tell the story of Darth Vader in a plastic Darth Vader mask carry case.

Hasbro released a Shmi Skywalker figure once.  Once!  I can’t imagine this character ever being revisited in the action figure line, so for today’s Throwback Review we look at 2001’s Power of the Jedi Shmi Skywalker figure.  While the value of the character to your collection is dubious, it’s not bad for an older figure.

We take Vader Week full circle from a certain point of view with today’s Throwback Review.  We look at a figure that represents Vader “redeemed” in 1999’s Flashback Anakin Skywalker figure.  Unfortunately this is a figure we will probably never see updated.

We’re just about a month and a half away from Halloween so we should be in an absolute panic that we haven’t seen any Christmas decorations yet.  I was beginning to worry that Christmas was cancelled.  Not to fear, Darth ChuckMC sent us a few dozen images of the KMart Christmas decoration display featuring a lot of Star War items of which you’ll likely buy at least one.  Admit it.
