Ewok Figure Foto

Chief Chirpa Galactic Heroes

Chief Chirpa Galactic Heroes

Toy Line: Star Wars: Galactic Heroes

Sculpt Name: Logray

Collector's Note: Ewoks aren't for everyone, but they are for me! I love them, and this little sculpt is one of my favorites. I would LOVE to have this sculpt in a blank colorway!

And just for shits and giggles, here's a pic of an Ewoks Chief Chirpa wax master taken by Ron Salvatore of The Star Wars Collectors Archive. If you're not familiar with that website, you should be! Be sure to check the site for a higher-res version of the image and more great pics! (I always love protos and wax masters, not for their rarity, but because they're always blank!)

Toy Line Melee Figure Foto


Toy Lines: Gegege No Kitaro Vs. Star Wars Galactic Heroes

Collector's Note: Welcome to the first "Toy Line Melee" Figure Foto! These entries will feature two toy lines matched up against one another in a bloody fight to the death. Okay, not really, but they will feature pics of multiple figures from two toy lines together in a diorama. And they will be matched against one another by way of a few simple criterion. For each criterion, I will choose the superior toy line, at least based on my humble opinion. (Feel free to disagree with me in the comments.)

Okay, let the melee begin:

Medium: Photography

Name of Piece: Return of the Jedi Collections

About: Above is an image grabbed from a Star Wars catalog recently featured at The Dork Dimension. Visit there to see hi-res images of the entire catalog.

I am always mesmerized by these catalogs. I think they're gorgeous! As I am quite fond of saying, I wish there were catalogs like this for minifigure lines such as Bad Eggz Bunch, MUSCLE, and MUSCLEMANIA. Maybe someday a collector will try to make a custom catalog for one of those toy lines...

Be sure to check The Dork Dimension for previously featured catalogs and note that there are sure to be more featured there in the future.
