Hasbro 12" Star Wars

Here's our collection of Hasbro 12" Star Wars action figures.

Released in the late 1990's, there were some awesome figurines released. Whish we owned more but now these are either hard to find or way overpriced.

Star Wars Darth Vader

Darth Vader was seduced by the dark side of the Force, became a Sith Lord, and led the Empire’s eradication of the Jedi Order.

The most iconic character of the Star Wars universe. One of the absolute greatest villain ever created.

Vader's mask was originally designed by Ralph McQuarrie as part of Vader's spacesuit and not intended to be part of the regular costume.

Its a cool action figure based on the end of Return of the Jedi.

Star Wars Luke Skywalker

Luke Skywalker was a Tatooine farmboy who rose from humble beginnings to become one of the greatest Jedi the galaxy has ever known.

A very cool action figure of one of the greatest… even though his face doesn't look much like the real life Luke.

Star Wars Obi-Wan Kenobi

Obi-Wan Kenobi is a great character and this 12" action figure is awesome!

It is based on the version from the original 1977 classic. It does look like him. The robe is nicely made and there also his lighsaber, which is sadly not in that photo.

Star Wars Sand People

Always loved the Sand People in the original Star Wars film. So we were really happy to find this one. It looks great, lots of details, nice paint and clothes. We also have his weapon, which is sadly not in this photo.

Star Wars Zam Wesell

Here's a very cool action figure of Star Wars Zam Wesell.

There are lots of cool features on this one. First the clothes and accessories are great. She also came with all of her weapons and you can take out her "human" face to reveal her true identity!

Star Wars SnowTrooper

Here's our Star Wars SnowTrooper action figure. Really like the look of this one. He looks like he had some great battles.

Star Wars Jango Fett

Here's Jango Fett from the Star Wars Attack of the Clones film. Its a simple but still cool figurine that stands about 10" tall. We got it at the flea market, hence why it is pretty beaten up.

1978 Kenner Star Wars 12" action figures

Ok so this one is not actually 12" tall because all of the 1978 Kenner Star Wars 12" action figures are in scale. Still, we love them Jawas!

1978 Kenner Star Wars 12" action figures

Probably the coolest of the original 1978 Kenner Star Wars 12" action figures is Boba Fett.

Love the details and paint on this one. He is actually more articulated then the others. Sadly we are missing his accessories.

1978 Kenner Star Wars 12" action figures

In 1978, Kenner released some 12" Star Wars action figures.

These were highly popular. I always wanted them but never got any as a kid. Thankfully, about 5 years ago I managed to find some on Ebay for a great price.

Here's Darth Vader! He is actually taller then 12". Its an awesome figurine, with lots of details, cape and lightsaber.

Sesame Street

As a kid I loved Sesame Street. So when Isaac stated to get into Elmo and the Sesame Street universe, needless to say that I was extremely happy.

Now you can find toys based on Sesame Street anywhere but a few years ago they were almost impossible to find around here. Lucky back then, I managed to find some.

Toxic Crusaders

Toxic Crusaders was an animated series based on The Toxic Avenger films. It features Toxie, the lead character of the films leading a trio of misfit superheroes who combat pollution.

The coolest thing about it was the toy line. Created by Playmates, we got some very fun and colourful characters. Here's most of our collection (its missing our Toxie and his motorcycle).

Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!

In 1998, Kenner release their Beetlejuice toy line. Some very unique action figures and vehicles came out. Here's some from our collection.

The Vanishing Vault is especially cool. Isaac played a lot with it. Like magic, you can make your action figure "disappear".

Toy Story

Here's our small collection of 6" tall Toy Story action figures. Woody and Bullseye, we got them used while we bought Zurg while we were at Disney.

Years ago Playskool released a very cool Spider-Man and Friends collection. Similar to their Jedi Force collection, these were made for pre-schoolers so they are build to last.

Here's Spider-Man!
