The Saga Collection #037 Sandtrooper (Escape From Mos Eisley) Review

#037 SandtrooperOnce I learned that this sandtrooper figure would be based around the VOTC stormtrooper, I knew I had to have it. After not seeing it in stores for over a month, I broke down and ordered it online. Was it worth it? Yes! Great articulation, some new accessories, and the ability to turn this into a normal stormtrooper make this quite a figure. Read on for the review and 29 photos!

Welcome to the new site!!

Welcome! If you've been visiting the site lately, then you know that I've been working on a new version. Well, I just finished transferring all of the reviews (all 184 of them! whew!) to the new database and decided to launch it even though there are still areas of the site that need to be updated. What does that mean for you? Well, there might be some links here and there that go to old pages of the site, and thus, will not have the new look. I'll be trying my best to get every page updated though, so please be patient.

With the new site there are some notable changes:

-The main page is no longer http://starwars.carrotnetwork.com/main.html. Now it's just http://starwars.carrotnetwork.com! Easier, huh?

-New commenting system. Unfortunately all comments using the haloscan system cannot be transferred easily :( I guess a fresh start will have to do.

-XML feed!  Subscribe to this site's XML feed by clicking on the xml button below the search box in the left menu. Now you can easily see when this site is updated!

That's it for now. Well, time to get back to updating the other pages! Hope you like it!

The Saga Collection #032 R5-D4 (Escape From Mos Eisley) Review

TSC #032 R5-D4Finally. After years of requests and waiting for a proper R5-D4 figure, we're finally getting one. Thankfully R5 uses the newer astromech body and even features the 'bad motivator' that pops out of his head in Episode IV. Read on for the review and 22 photos!

The Saga Collection #038 Darth Vader (Bespin Confession) Review

#038 Darth VaderI usually don't like buying figures I already own, unless they include new items or something somehow unique. The Saga Collection Darth Vader figures have been iffy buys for me (I still haven't opened up my #013 Darth Vader), but I feel that this Darth Vader had enough new things going on that it was worthy of opening. Read on for the review and 24 photos!

The Saga Collection #034 Garindan (Escape from Mos Eisley) Review

#034 GarindanGarindan wasn't at the top of my list of figures to be resculpted, but in the end I'm glad they did. Looking back at the Power of the Force 2 figure is like looking at a bad caricature. The new Garindan is very accurate and sports some great sculpting. Read on for the review and 25 photos!
