Star Wars Action Figure Reviews

POTJ Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi (Jedi Knight) Review

Need a Ben Kenobi figure that isn't wearing his cloak? Then look no further than this figure. That's pretty much this figure's defining characteristic. Read on for the review and 3 photos!

POTJ BoShek Review

I love figures of cantina patrons, simply because I love the cantina scenes in Episode IV. For anyone of the same ilk, you will no doubt want to get your hands on BoShek, the pilot seen chatting with Obi-Wan at the bar. Read on for the review and 5 photos!

POTJ Teebo Review

We haven't really gotten much in the way of ewok figures, so it's nice that Hasbro is giving us Teebo, one of the more unique-looking ewoks from Return of the Jedi. Great sculpting and great articulation make this a great ewok figure. Read on for the review and 6 photos!

POTJ Zutton (Snaggletooth) Review

I believe Zutton actually appeared in the Star Wars Holiday Special, a show that aired on TV in 1978 with the cast of Star Wars in a "variety show" format. The show was so awful that Lucas has said he would, if he could, destroy every remaining copy of it on earth. The figure is rather nice however, and will make an excellent addition to your Mos Eisley cantina. Read on for the review and 5 photos!

POTJ Eeth Koth (Jedi Master) Review

Eeth Koth is a sampling of the types of figures we'll be seeing in the Episode II line of figures, not only because he is a Jedi, but also because of his pre-posed nature. This figure is less action and more of a statue. Is that good or bad? Read on for the review and 4 photos!

POTJ Scout Trooper (Imperial Patrol) Review

Scout troopers are always a welcome addition to my collection, and Hasbro makes one worthy of replacing older versions. Unfortunately, this one can't ride a speeder bike, which is in my opinion, an essential trait that a scout trooper figure should have. Read on for the review and 4 photos!

POTJ Rebel Trooper (Tantive IV Defender) Review

The POTF2 Rebel Trooper was an abomination and this new version corrects many of the things wrong with that horrid figure. Interesting articulation and better sculpting make this the rebel troopers to own. Read on for the review and 6 photos!

POTJ FX-7 (Medical Droid) Review

FX-7, that multi-armed medical droid is redone for the modern line in excellent detail. The perfect compliment to the Deluxe Luke in Bacta Tank, this droid has all the detail you could want in a medical droid. Read on for the review and 5 photos!

POTJ Imperial Officer Review

More Imperial figures are a good thing, but it would be even better if Hasbro focused on the ones more commonly seen in the movies. This Imperial officer wears a jumpsuit and not the dress uniform we all know and love. Still, this turned out to be a great figure, so read on for the review and 5 photos!

POTJ Plo Koon (Jedi Master) Review

You may have noticed that there aren't too many Episode I characters I've reviewed. That's mostly because I'm not as attached to the movie or its characters like I am to the original trilogy. But anyway, I picked this guy up at my local Wal Mart and found him to be pretty cool. I'm afraid I may have to pick up more of these Episode I Jedi now! Read on for the review and 5 photos!

POTJ Tessek Review

Now this is how background aliens should be made! The alien known as squidhead to older collectors is back and better than ever. His robes may not be cloth, but they're some of the best molded robes made. Read on for the review and 4 photos!

POTJ Darth Vader (Emperor's Wrath) Review

In an effort to give us a Vader for every scene from each movie, Hasbro tries something new with the first Force lightning-affected Vader figure. Complete with transparent helmet, you can actually see his skull inside! Read on for the review and 5 photos!

POTJ Han Solo (Bespin Capture) Review

Commtech Han Solo was my favorite Han Solo figure--until now! I just got this gem in the mail today and it has surpassed my expectations. Nice articulation, good sculpt, separately sculpted jacket, I love this thing! Read on for the review and 5 photos!

POTJ Bespin Guard (Cloud City Security) Review

The vintage line gave us a caucasian and african american Bespin guard figures, and now for the POTJ line, we're getting an asian guard. At least, that's what he looks like to me. Nice accessories and a removable hat make this a pretty nice Bespin guard. Read on for the review and 3 photos!

POTJ R2-Q5 (Imperial Astromech Droid) Review

R2 units rock. This guy was hard to find in the store, but it was worth the trouble of finding him. This sort of feels like an "evil" R2-D2 with its all-black paint scheme. Read on for the review and 6 photos!

POTJ Lando Calrissian (Bespin Escape) Review

Hasbro heard our calls for an improved Lando figure and deliver us this figure. The cloth cape is nice, but his pose limits the figure a little. Read on for the review and 3 photos!

POTJ IG-88 (Bounty Hunter) Review

Didn't like the Shadow's of the Empire version of IG-88? Then this is the IG-88 for you! Improved details, such as a separately sculpted bandoleer make this the IG-88 to own. Read on for the review and 3 photos!

POTJ Han Solo (Death Star Escape) Review

I'm not sure why Hasbro made this figure. I mean, I like the idea of a Han with stormtrooper belt on, but this figure ended up being a one-pose wonder. I like figures that are a bit more useful than this one. Read on for the review and 3 photos!

POTJ Darth Vader (Dagobah) Review

It's here! The figure you've all been waiting for--ghostly Vader from Dagobah! Ok, this isn't really a figure I've been waiting for, but I'm sure there are people out there who will love this. The cool thing about this Vader is the removable mask which reveals--Luke's face! Read on for the review and 5 photos!

POTJ Chewbacca (Millennium Falcon Mechanic) Review

This marks the first Chewy figure that has a decently accurate height. He towers over other figures, which is what he should do. Some new accessories here too. Read on for the review and 3 photos!

Power of the Jedi - Sandtrooper (Tatooine Patrol) Review

Ever since the awesome Commtech Stormtrooper, I can't look at the older Stormtroopers without cringing a bit. Of course, that includes the old Sandtroopers which is why I love the fact that Hasbro decided to redo them for the POTJ line.
