I never visited Star Tours, so I have no frame of reference with which to compare the figures and toys in this subline.  But this set seems particularly bizarre to me.  It’s got a brightly colored repaint of an Imperial officer, an Ewok, a not-Ewok, Ree-Yees with a old-timey camera (with 3 lenses), and Just Plain Chewbacca.  Okay then.  Here we go.

First up is the Star Tours Officer.  The figure is a 2001 sculpt, repainted here in 2010.  Kind of lame, but whatever.  At the time, I loved the figure because it had multiple headsculpt variants.  Here, Hasbro didn’t give it a new head, but instead painted it in bright blue and red, which I can only assume were the colors of the staff at Star Tours.  The figure has no accessory or weapon, but it does have a small Star Tours logo as a shoulder patch, which I do love.  I only just opened this set for the purposes of this review, but I would imagine that this one comes in handy as a backgrounder in any number of densely populated dioramas.

Kaink, which I nominate for the award of Worst Name in Star Wars, is a lady Ewok of some stature.  According to the box bio, she is a storyteller, and wields a magical staff.  Sadly, this magical staff is non-existent in toy form.  What you do get is a bizarrely painted Ewok, that looks like a racist clown.  It’s particularly jarring when you remove the cowl, so leave that thing on.  That’s the most interesting thing about the figure. The cowl is soft goods, a first among Ewoks.  It has ear holes cut in either side of it, but the actual head sculpt has rather small and flat ears, so it’s a pointless feature. 

Teek seems like a mutant Ewok, but apparently is of another species (also called “Teek”) native to the Forest Moon of Endor.  He is most notable for being introduced in the Ewok movies back in the day, and was friendly with Wilfred Brimley.  That makes Teek kind of awesome.  The figure is actually pretty good, with ball jointed shoulders and head, swivel wrists, thighs, and feet, and he wears something resembling overalls.

Ree-Yees is the POTF2 version.  Frankly, it’s not a terrible sculpt, but the articulation was certainly lacking by the time of this re-release.  Fortunately we now have an outstanding modern version.  What’s notable is the camera accessory.  At first I assumed it was just repurposed from some other toy line, but then I realized it has three lenses for his three eyes.  That made me giggle initially, until it dawned on me that we humans have one lens for two eyes.  So there’s no real logic to the three lenses.  Then I stopped giggling and became angry.  I’ve got problems.

Chewbacca is just Chewbacca.  Like the officer, he’s of the POTJ era.  This one has no accessories, not even his iconic crossbow.  What gives?  I assume it was some do-goody Disney family nonsense decision not to include weapons.  Whatever.  The figure is lame already, it didn’t need to be made worse by having no accessory.

Strange set.  Except Chewbacca, each figure offers something vaguely interesting.
