Star Wars Unleashed

I see some of you collect the Marvel Legends figures. What do you guys think of the Unleashed Star Wars figures? They aren't articulated like ML and they're slightly larger. i treat them like plastic mini-statue placeholders until i can move on to the Attakus stuff. the sculpts are really very good and the poses are very dynamic and life-like. for the money, these display really well and don't make your showcase look all toylike as the smaller 3 3/4" action figs would.

these are very nice for sure. I know the shiflets and some others have sculpted some of these.

sweet. do you know which figures the shiftletts did and which other sculptors have been involved? this is so great. reading up here the last few days, finding out who makes what and where it all comes from!

I have most of them (I passed on Windu and Anakin) and think they are very cool! I am anxiously awating a Princess Leia in her white threads.

hey BB, how come you passed on master Windu? Sam Jackson is such a badass! i like the unleashed of him but the kotobukiya is even better. Leia eh? i'm waiting for a Qui-Gon myself. he's about the only character i can stand in the prequels besides Mace and Darth Maul. god forbid they do a Jar Jar unleashed. i decided to go completist for this line though. still missing a few older ones. you got any spares down your way?

I'm not really into the prequel stuff. Everytime I see Mace Windu I think of every other bad movie Jackson has been in.

Sorry, no extras but most are being re-released on the new cards. Just saw Vader at Target a week ago.

yeah, i'm not much into the prequels either. but i found the sculpts really good across the whole line i just decided to get 'em all. it's one of the few lines i can actually afford to complete so i went for it. but as usual i was late to the table and so i'm still short of the hard-to-gets like Boba Fett, Han Solo, Luke Jedi and Vader Unmasked. ebay prices are nuts for those figs. you should like the next wave if you only like the OT, there's Stormtrooper and IG-88 in it.

Luke Jedi is re-released on the new cards. I just saw him a few days ago at a Suncoast Video store. And I just recently saw Han so you should be able to find him also.

The unleashed line is awesome! It is THE BEST stuff hasbro is putting out and I love how they look like really nice statues for only 15 bucks.
