Action Figure of the Day: September 2013
http://afotd.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 4, 2013. Greedo [1995, POTF2]. With Rodian Blaster Rifle [no exclamation point on this one]. Coming in the second POTF2 wave was Greedo, the man who used to shoot first. He seems a little muscular in the chest, but Kenner did a much better job on his color scheme this time around, a better matching head, and more Rodian-like hands. He also comes with two guns - mainly to match (the gun he was in the movie with) and to more appeal to boys (another big freakin' gun! I used to be excite...

Action Figure of the Day: July 2013
http://afotd.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 31, 2013. Yep, another Ewok – these guys reproduce like, well, like Ewoks. Teebo comes with a boar-like cowl, a stone axe, and a satchel that may also be a horn. In ROTJ, he probably was the most frightening looking Ewok. Of course, with those black, dead eyes, they can all look a little scary close-up. He was Wicket's friend in the animated series, however. Why should you buy this figure? 1 That toothed-cowl. Kind of menacing. 4 Wicket’s best friend! 157th in alphabetical order. They sme...

Action Figure of the Day: Emperor's Royal Guard [POTF2]
http://afotd.blogspot.com/2013/09/emperors-royal-guard-potf2.html
Monday, September 2, 2013. Emperor's Royal Guard [POTF2]. Yes, what is it guard? You are the Emperor, and I want to do my best to protect you, but.". Yes, guard, spit it out! Well, couldn't we have guns? Absolutely not, royal guard! Guns are reserved for Death Star Gunners, who get a blaster and. Need any guns - they are manning cannons.". Do not question your Emperor! So, despite the fact that the highest guards for the Emperor have pikes and no guns (this is explained a bit in the Crimson Empire. Star ...

Action Figure of the Day: December 2012
http://afotd.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 31, 2012. See-Threepio (C-3PO) (SW 1978-79). It's hard to be enthusiastic about someone whose main "power" is translating. Sure, he's shiny, but no weapons, no commlink, no nothing. He's more of the Jar Jar Binks of the original trilogy, except he's actually useful (and less annoying). Why should you own this figure? 1 How else is everyone going to figure out what the hell R2 is talking about? 2 Shiny.so shiny. 3 Decently detailed figure - even has a restraining bolt on his chest. This w...

Action Figure of the Day: Death Star Gunner [POTF2, 1995]
http://afotd.blogspot.com/2013/09/death-star-gunner-potf2-1995.html
Sunday, September 1, 2013. Death Star Gunner [POTF2, 1995]. With IMPERIAL BLASTER AND ASSAULT RIFLE. Sheesh, all of these military types not only get the Imperial blaster, but a mother-puss-bucket assault rifle. Not A rifle, but an assault. So anyway, second line of the POTF2 figures comes out, and Kenner chooses to make a figure that looks best in a gunner chair on the Death Star, but doesn't make the gunner chair. Oh, well, still looks kind of cool. Five reasons to get this figure:. Remember to click o...

Action Figure of the Day: August 2013
http://afotd.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 31, 2013. Darth Vader [1995, POTF2]. With Lightsaber and Removable Cape! Pardon the exclamation marks on all of these, but they are on the package so what can I do? Darth Vader is certainly a more robust figure than the original series. While his height has not been improved to be more to scale with the rest of the figures, he certainly seems more muscular (despite wearing a survival suit). Muscular was the trend with this new batch, though. Look at the size of that thing! While the new ...

Action Figure of the Day: November 2012
http://afotd.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 30, 2012. Lumat, just like Warok (what do you mean all Ewoks look alike? What are you racist? Why should you get this figure? 1 Own a piece of history as they change his origin! See the Wookieepedia entry. 2 Too many Ewok things, so few Ewoks to man them. 3 Your girlfriend likes the Ewoks. Your girlfriend sucks. 4 Relive the harrowing moment when Lumat discovers his stormtrooper bloodlust! 5 You’ve got serious Ewok fever, and it can only be quenched with…Lumat! 111th in alphabetical order.
