Ahhhhhh, 'Mando' is short for 'Mandalorian'! And Lando is short for Landalorian. He likes to eat at Nandalorian's. And drives a car favoured by Marty McFly. Martin |

Saw the Retralorian Mandalorian figures in Toryglen Asda last night (well, some of them - no Mando or Grogu left, of course). All marked as being a tenner each, although I don't know what they rang up as since I didn't buy any.

The Asdaland Ashton has Star Wars Retro on 'rollback' to £7.50: just wave 2 there.
Looks like Andu has been lucky and a wave 3 case was put out in his store while the offer is on.

It is a fabulous figure. I'll keep buying SW Retro toys if Hasbro keep making them.

I got my small but perfectly formed modern Star Wars figure collection out the other evening;
Jabba, his palace denizens, and Skiff Guard army squared off against General Veers, Captain Needa, and their Imperial garrison, with our heroes caught in the middle, as Darth Vader looked on assessing Young Skywalker from a distance. Very pleasing.
I seem to have lost General Veers' helmet though...

The important question is: proper three and three quarter inches or SIX INCH ABOMINATION FILTH?

He's a 3 3/4 fella iirc.
Do you have the palace playset to put Jabba in Shockers?

50th Greedo in from amazon.com. Rather nicely it came in its own sealed shipper, which was (because I remembered to tick the right box) inside an amazon.com box too. First Black Series figure for a while.

Not long after there was a playset which was a couple of flights of steps!

Indeed. That did look particularly spindly. But then they got it right with the Tantive corridor.

They are fab and also prove that action figures don't have to be expensive.

Dear God no. Firstly, it's ridiculously expensive. And secondly.... it's looks shit. Yeah. Can't really argue with that to be fair. I reckon it would look good with Jabba in front of it, but it's more a backdrop than a playset. Besides, on the opening door scale of greatness it scores zero. Archways are no replacement. |

Greef Karga is now mine. Happy to finally have Carl Weathers in action figure form.
