Review: Star Wars Black Series 3.75 Inch Imperial AT ST With AT ST Driver

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review.  Today we will be looking at the Walmart exclusive Star Wars 3.75 Inch Black Series Imperial AT-ST with AT-ST Driver. It is a shame to see even vehicle releases get the Walmart exclusive treatment especially since it seems that the store has been the worst place to find exclusives especially in the last few years. Since I don’t have a Walmart nearby this vehicle was really hard to track down for the retail cost, which is…

Review: Star Wars Rogue One 3.75 Inch Galen Erso

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review.  Today we will be looking at Galen Erso in the basic 3.75 Inch line for Rogue One. I personally thought it was quite surprising to see Galen Erso as a part of the basic 3.75 Inch toyline. While he isn’t an obscure character that would warrant a more surprising release in my opinion it is more towards the fact they Hasbro managed to release him before the line ended.  That being said the figure is a decent…

Review: Star Wars 40th Anniversary 6 Inch Black Series R5-D4

Pak Hanu

Hello Hero Club this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review.  Today we will be looking at the Gamestop exclusive Star Wars 40th Anniversary 6 Inch Black Series R5-D4. It is stunning how many of the exclusive Star Wars figures (outside of the Target releases) are pretty much a luck of the draw.  At first I thought that this release wouldn’t be as hard as it was since it stayed in stock on Gamestop’s website for preorder for a decent amount of time. It is a shame…
