Mas Amedda was famous throughout the Galaxy for being Palpatine’s loyal right-hand man in political circles. He was a man of few words, but when he spoke, people listened. While he only had a few seconds of screen time, there’s a lot more to know about this guy. From his early days as a tadpole, to his hilarious death, click the pic above to learn more than you thought possible about this crazy Chagrian.
Forum member Sambuca reports that the near mythical Whiplash wave in the Iron Man 2 toy series has hit his local Walmart(New Mexico area). Both Whiplash figures were gone, but there were tell tale signs of remaining figures from that case.

This figure sculpt is nearly identical to the currently available Vintage Collection Boba Fett. The lone difference is that Hasbro accidentally reversed the belt/pounch piece. In fact, you can swap it around easily by rotating it. Or, you can leave it, and it looks like it is meant to be unique Jodo. The paint is obviously completely different. This figure is far superior to the Legacy Collection Jodo Kast, but, if you ask our experts, it still misses the mark on accuracy. Nevertheless, it’s a good figure with good articulation, and a definite upgrade over the previous release, which had no removeable helmet. The face in the comic was beaten and bloodied, but Hasbro opted to not go down that route.

This is a nifty mini-rig, inspired by a larger but similar vehicle that Padme piloted from Coruscant to Mustafar. The cockpit holds one figure. There are “pretend” missiles that move, but don’t fire. The features are sparse, but it looks cool, and is in the spirit of the original Kenner Mini-Rigs. I recommend you get this, and toss the Anakin figure, or give it to your neighbor’s dog to chew on. This would be a great value if it had come with a movie-style figure.

Neat speederbike, similar in style to the standard OT one. It’s got Plo’s favorite color scheme. Not a new sculpt. The figure itself is for kids, so I won’t mention it.

I really enjoy the Build-a-Droid parts. I think they fit together nicely, and look about identical to a basic carded figure.
This is an impressive droid from the popular video game, Dark Forces.
