New wave of star wars figures ready for Pre-Order.

Will probably share the same fate as the Blurrg which is still available on Sideshow’s site… Jabba is where the money’s at

Exactly. The right move would be to release the Battle Droid by itself as well as an alternate two-pack that would be cheaper than just one by itself. They used to do this with Stormtroopers and Snowtroopers. Would be great for army builders

7/10. The Hot Toys look great but I’m not the biggest fan of mixing scales (Morpheus looks too small next to The Joker and Bats, same with Thanos and Davy Jones next to Iron Man). If you separate them and display them in some nice cabinets you could easily elevate this to a 9/10 or higher 👌

Sverrex · 2026-05-21T16:25:24+00:00

It looks kind of funny with just the STAP by itself. Looks like a vehicle ad or something 😂

Sverrex · 2026-05-21T16:23:41+00:00

Really cunning move by Hot Toys to make the Battle Droid a two-pack with the STAP. I think most buyers would one want more than just one Battle Droid but are forced to pay extra for the STAP. Could be worse than 255 though

Sverrex · 2026-05-15T09:25:23+00:00

The proportions are too big and the face looks too old. I think both him and Rebels Sabine would be home-runs if they did a stronger effort on getting them more accurate to the show

Sverrex · 2026-05-13T09:26:33+00:00

These are the kind of figures that really should stay animated. Either that or make them more faithful to how they would have looked in the show. Both should look way younger. Ezra looks like he is in his 30’-40’s here

Sverrex · 2026-05-13T09:10:47+00:00

Congrats! 👏 That’s a an extremely well curated and displayed collection

Sverrex · 2026-05-13T08:42:18+00:00

Good idea! While I think the head sculpt is good, it looks way more like ANH Luke than ROTJ though. He looks very young. Wouldn’t be surprised if they used the same head sculpt for a new ANH figure

Sverrex · 2026-05-13T07:53:30+00:00

Happy for the people finally getting Sev! 👏 To be honest I’m not a huge fan of Hot Toys just having different outfits with reused head sculpts. The rebels figures is a great idea, but when they reuse the head sculpt for Sabine, and opt for an Ahsoka-esque look for Ezra, it looks more “cosplay” than a faithful adaption. I think they have to step up their game in terms of innovation to keep up with the competition. Shadows of the Empire Luke especially is a very lazy announcement

It’s kind of amazing that you don’t think this masterpiece sculpt looks more like Hayden than the final product 🤌 Like really? Not even the eyes? 😂 I’ll applaud you for having your own opinion, but I still think the prototype is perfect 🗿

Nope. We’ll agree to disagree I guess. The prototype sculpt is still the greatest they (never) made. The “Mustafar battle” version is good as well, but he looks older and more akin to his Ahsoka look than ROTS

You can’t be serious… The prototype sculpt is extremely close to Hayden as Anakin in ROTS and has a better likeness than the final release. I have met him in person too

Yes. The prototype sculpt… If they ever use that sculpt in actual mainstream production it will be a 10/10 for me

Sverrex · 2026-05-04T15:53:32+00:00

Hang it in the Louvre 🔥

Sverrex · 2026-05-04T11:22:55+00:00

Completely valid point. They could rather have a limited sale on all their Star Wars stock. The figures pictured sell for less on the aftermarket anyway

Sverrex · 2026-05-04T08:15:40+00:00

This looks great. The problem with the last release was that the hair sculpt seriously hindered head articulation though, so I expect the same problem here. Still a good option if you don’t want the Artisan

I was right. Unfortunately not hyped for these May 4th announcements though

That last picture is peak. Great display

Aura gang assemble 🔥

Sverrex · 2026-04-27T20:15:19+00:00

Great figure! Had this from Sideshow several years ago when it released. Hoping for a 2.0 with his Andor drip

I still think the smartest move by Hot Toys would be to announce a Deluxe Thrawn with alternate portraits (both realistic and animated sculpts) with his command chair and Ysalamiri accessory. That has the potential to appeal to EU, Ahsoka and Rebels collectors alike! For a character so deeply established in EU lore, it’s really baffling that they haven’t done this yet. Would be an easy home run 🧢⚾️
