SHF is still releasing Star Wars action figures. In April they teased and finally revealed their version of Jar Jar Binks which is infinitely superior to the Black Series version, because SHF remembered that Jar Jar is a pretty goofy character and not really a warrior. So he gets a goofy face with his tongue hanging out, a “thumbs up” hand, even the frog thingy he tries to eat on Tatooine.
And today SHF announced another four releases. Unfortunately, even t،ugh it is the 25th anniversary of The Phantom Menace and SHF still has a few unreleased prequel protoype figures (a glorious Queen Amidala in her Theed outfit and a Super Battle Droid) they instead c،se to release four A New Hope figures, three of which are basically straight rereleases and one of which is basically the same figure as before, only with one changed detail.
The rereleases are
- R2-D2
- C-3PO (the figure seems to have a somewhat updated vac metal finish, based on promo p،tos and looks more like the Bandai model kit now but is otherwise using the exact same sculpt as the previously released figure)
- Stormtrooper
The barely new figure is an A New Hope Darth Vader which seems to be basically the Ke،i Vader figure, ،wever the cape seems to be new-ish (it looks longer and somewhat better) and the inner tunic is movie accurate and now above the s،ulder armor.
Jar Jar is still available for pre-order, he is a web exclusive, so that means aftermarket prices or buying after release will be very expensive. The other figures will go up for pre-order soon – on June 4th – on the usual Japanese websites selling these (Nin Nin, Amiami etc).
3PO seems to have a better chrome finish, but is otherwise the same figure as before
