The Empire Strikes Back Commemorative DVD Collection

Its playtime again so whoever wants to play can stay but if you think this is way too kiddy for you then come back another time. I'm always very accomodating to everyone's tastes!

Hasbro has come out a special commemorative collection to go with the release of the DVD version of The Empire Strikes Back but the DVD doesn't come with it OK! Its just a con to get suckers like me to buy them!

There are 2 other additions to this series of commemorative collection like the original Star Wars movie where it comes with Luke, Vader and Ben and also the Return Of The Jedi version that has Luke, the Emperor and the 2 droids.

Here's the dynamic duo, Han Solo the smuggler turned rebel hero and his faithful companion Chewbaca the wookie. Han comes complete with his blaster and his removable sleeveless jacket and Chewbaca his ammunition belt and cross-bow blaster.

However these figurines are not very flexible and Han's blaster keeps falling off his hand and I had to tie it with a rubber band! And you can't even bend his knees so there's not much movement I can do with him, stupid Solo!

Chewbaca is not much better either but at least he can hold his weapon. He has a big head, long body and flat bottom! But at least they did made him taller than Han Solo.

The main reason I bought this was because of the stormtrooper because every collector would know that stormtroopers are hard to come by nowadays and you can only find them bundled with other characters and not by themselves. Just ask Sengkor.

I'm quite happy with this stormtrooper which comes with 2 blasters but the arm movements is a bit restricted as well. Sengkor you want one? How much are you willing to pay for this?
