Vintage OTC C-3PO Review

It's been a dry spell in terms of new figures in my area, but my girlfriend came through with finding a stash of VOTC C-3PO's at a nearby Target and bought me one! 3PO was the last VOTC figure I wanted, and now that I have him I'm not so sure why I wanted him in the first place. Read on for the review and 16 photos!

Vintage OTC Boba Fett Review

Wouldn't you know it? Right after ordering Boba Fett from Walmart.com, I see him at my local Target AND Toys R Us just a few days later. I was tempted to pick up another, but I really don't need a second one...although repainting one into an Empire Strikes Back version did cross my mind. So is this the ultimate Fett?

Vintage OTC Stormtrooper Review

I actually found this figure by sheer luck. While leaving the barren isles of my local Toys R Us, I noticed a cart full of miscellaneous toys, the kind employees fill up with misplaced or returned merchandise. At first I was just looking at a new Spawn figure that was at the top, but then lo and behold there he was! The VOTC Stormtrooper! I quickly looked for a Boba Fett, but alas there was none. Oh well, I'm just happy I got my Stormtrooper. Read on for the review and 30 photos!

Vintage OTC Chewbacca Review

It wasn't too long ago that I was saying that it would be a while until the last great Chewbacca figure could be topped. Cloud City Capture Chewie was that figure, and now it has been dethroned by this figure. Read on for the review and 26 photos!

Vintage OTC Princess Leia Review

Princess Leia is part of the A New Hope wave of Vintage Original Trilogy Collection characters and appears in the simple white gown she wore through most of the movie. If I'm not mistaken, this is the seventh iteration of this costume since 1995 (Original POTF2, New Likeness POTF2, Princess Leia Collection, Commtech Chip, 25th Anniversary, Trash Compactor, and VOTC). Read on for the review and 19 photos!

Vintage OTC Han Solo Review

With a focus on sculpting and articulation, the Vintage Original Trilogy Collection is perhaps the line Star Wars action figure fans have been dreaming of. The fun doesn't end there though--the figures come in vintage-styled packaging and a protective clamshell to ensure each card comes in mint condition. All of this comes at a price--a $10.00 price tag to be exact, but that doesn't seem to have stopped people from buying these figures. Han Solo has been the easiest to find so far, and that is definitely a good thing...
