Star Wars 20-Inch Darth Vader Giant Figure

Product Information

I cringe everytime Luke says "Sand People" in the original film. Even the more appropriate "Tusken Raider" is a pretty big judgement call. Like, are they really called Tusken? Is that their name for themselves? And are they all Raiders? Surely there are some Tusken Artisans or Tusken Teachers or something. Speaking of action figures that look nothing like the actors they're modeled after, Kenner was apparently unhappy with their original sculpt of Han Solo and wanted to make a new one that more closely resembled Harrison Ford. They succeeded completely because, as we all know, Harrison Ford has an absolutely enormous head that is totally out of proportion to the rest of his body. I mean, sure. I guess someone out there wants a minifig of George Lucas, with his cute little seventies haircut and his little director's clapboard and his nerd-wear plaid shirt that he probably has a million of and cost thousands of dollars because who cares?

Man, people really go nuts for the Millennium Falcon. I get that it's iconic and has a unique design and everything it just, I dunno, of all the spaceships you can live on it just never really grabbed me the way, say Serenity or Normandy does. Even the Ebon Hawk from Knights of the Old Republic is more appealing to me, and it's based almost entirely on the Falcon. I guess I'm just not blown away by a ship inspired by a burger with a bite taken out of it next to an olive. (True story.) Thurn says there are a few companies that specialize in grading toys (and Star Wars toys represent the vast majority of what they process). He says the condition scale runs from zero to 100, but “there are no standards for what any particular number means, except that 100 would mean the toy was never touched by human hands, which is impossible due to the Heisenberg Principle.”Another victim of the cancellation of the Kenner line in 1985, this ghost version of Anakin Skywalker as he appears at the end of the original Return of the Jedi is probably even more valuable now that the Special Editions have erased him entirely to be replaced with Hayden Christensen. Apart from rare figures that will always command a premium, the rule of thumb is one simple word: condition, condition, condition,” he says. It features nine Minifigures and a bevy of mind-numbingly cool features, making it the perfect build for a group of Star Wars fans ready to embark on a journey of wonder and imagination.

What makes Star Wars action figures valuable? Several factors combine to dictate a given Star Wars action figure’s value, including: This huge 2016 revamping of the similarly-large 2008 model actually underwhelmed fans of the Lego Star Wars series of builds, as it's basically just a somewhat improved version of its predecessor - featuring a slightly larger play experience and three new Minifigures. This incredible build from 2007 showcases the fastest and most famous starship in the long and arduous history of Star Wars, the Corellian freighter known as the Millennium Falcon. It features one of the most complete and accurate representations of the Falcon ever recorded, nailing the vessel's extravagant design down to the last detail. What kid didn't see Star Wars for the first time and say "Forget the Millenium Falcon and those X-Wings, I want that extremely slow-moving giant brown metal thing the droids get captured in!" Fulfilling a market that absolutely cannot have been demanding its release, here we have the radio controlled Jawa Sandcrawler. Can you imagine thinking a Star Wars movie was going to bomb? I mean without the internet telling you it will.Made by Kenner in 1978, this four-layer dip of a playset is like a snapshot of locations from the original Death Star, with a gun turret, the chasm Luke and Leia swing over, Vader & Obi-Wan's duel and, of course, the trash compactor. It's like a video game vertical slice: really everything major that happens on the Death Star is represented here, in exaggerated action-figure size. Luke & Leia could probably have just stepped over the chasm if this was to scale, not to mention how easy it would be for the Imperials to find them. This 2014 Sandcrawler replica is undoubtedly one of the coolest Lego sets ever created. After fans wanted a bigger version of the legendary Tatooinian vehicle from A New Hope than the 1,669-piece replica released in 2005, Lego delivered with this portable fortress of epic proportions.

So here's where our ol' pal Blue Snaggletooth came from, a box set of characters from the famous cantina in Mos Eisley Spaceport. While the famous BluSnag was an exclusive addition to this set, he's definitely the least recognisable of the four characters included here, though two of them were given hilariously descriptive names instead of being identified by their species or character names. There's the Aqualash who threatens Luke before Obi-Wan intervenes, here given the moniker "Walrusman" which I just love that they made into one word. Who can forget "Hammerhead", aka the Ithorian seen nodding along to his friend for 100 frames in a very popular, deeply silly movie from the 70s?
