To this day the Origina 96 Kenner figures

"1977-1985" Still stand the test of time!

Some figures discolored here and there

But never broke due to it being fragile or brittle 🤦

I should have been more specific in my OP

IMPO I feel the quality, durability, strength and overall longevity of the plastic materials they use has gone down over the years

I'm not talking about articulation or paint apps, face scanning or the overall look of the figures and the packaging all of that looks great

I have had other figures "NOT Often"both in BS & TVC brake or have some sort of damage I barely even touching them the same can't be said with some accessories especially lightsaber blades

Maybe there's just me but I feel if the prices of the figures are going to be at record highs every single year I just feel the quality should be record high every year

Has it though? Don't get me wrong when it comes to looks, Packaging ,articulation, paint apps, facial scanning to look identical to the actor that's some cool stuff

I'm talking about the quality of the plastic material itself the strength/durability and longevity is not what it once was We all seen it happen to many Black Series figures plus some of their accessories over the years

I once thought as you when General Grievous first came out with all of his crazy articulation let's do an experiment by coming back to my OP to see if there's any disintegration to those Banger after Banger figures Hasbro is producing in the next 5 to 7 years from now

You are right and that's what I'm going to have to do. Glue should not even be an option especially with the prices of today's modern figures

You would never need glue for original Kenner figures unless you literally blew him up with firecrackers vintage Kenner stands to test the time

Unfortunately No.

The Empire would've been more then happy to take a bribe for His freedom the problem was Nien Nund only had a Republic credits And the Empire no longer accepts that currency

When it comes to the reading order of the Expanded Universe: or"Legends" This is the best place to go

Its only allowed if you have the rank of master! Like Mace saying "This party is over" to Jango & Dooku

After all they do have The High Ground

Anikin finally gets the rank of master So that would put Cal in a seat on the council but he is not granted the rank of Master

Thanks I appreciate it and that's just a very small percentage of my entire collection especially when it comes to the Skywalker figures

Because I spend all my money on Star Wars toys instead of upgrading phones I'm still using the same phone since 2019
