It's great to hear you say all this about the value of these figures from Stan Solo. I cringe every single time someone comes on the channel and "complains" to me about the cost of each figure. Read the room, folks. You pay for quality. And as you have stated, no one does it better than Stan Solo. Period. Kenner would be proud and Hasbro should take notes.

I like that the blaster is angled so you can pose him pointing it at Han on the down low, like in the movie. So clever and demonstrates how much thought went into it.

I hope fans go out and buy Stan Solos figures in their droves to support this company, he has announced he has had enough of making these figures and wants to spend time with his family which is only right. The new removable helmet Darth Vader he has on preorder is going to be epic.

@@retroblasting it's not rumour mongering, it's something he posted on his Stan Solo creations Facebook page, he has put this up as he has a new droid up for pre sale and he has stated that it is not something he wants to do anymore, his fans are gutted but they all fully understand his reasons. I have put the comment up so fans looking to buy his figures should hurry up and do so before they all sell out. I am not one for rumour mongering and I thought that you were a member of that page like GQ Jedi as he promotes Stan Solos figures as well, I have purchased some of the one I wanted before they go.

Well that's a nice update to a classic figure! I never thought twice about his green jumpsuit as a kid. While I don't collect vintage style star wars figures, I respect the fact that someone is making them for the audience that wants them. And doing amazing at it. And it's nice to see you excited about these figures too! As for the price tag, I think you explained it really well.

That Greedo is STUNNING!! I was so happy when mine arrived. Greedo was one of my absolute favorite figures when I was a kid but never even thought that there should be a resculpt. However, when Chris Smith announced it and showed the first concept mock-ups, I was blown away. I’m so thankful to you, Michael for making me aware of Stan Solo back when your Han Stormtrooper video came out. I’ve been grabbing almost everything he’s produced since then and am kicking myself for passing on the few that I did. Stan Solo is literally the second coming of Kenner and we are beyond fortunate to have his contributions to the community. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again; VIVA STAN SOLO!!!

This Greedo figure looks amazing! I won't replace my original KENNER Greedo, but I can appreciate beauty when I see it. As for Mon Mothma, Disney canceled my preorder for no reason, so I found her on eBay for $25. She's a great figure. I paid more than she would have been if she had been sold separately, but like you, I didn't need the other 5 figures, so I was happy for $25. The deals are out there, just have to look :)

I absolutely love what Stan Solo is doing, Chris loves the Kenner line and it shows with every new introduction , and even though I am on a budget , I will never fault him for his prices, and will get them when I get the small chances to, but I have to say that every time I see new offerings on his site's, I feel like a kid in the late 70's seeing new figures being offered in the catalogues and on card backs. the people that love what they do and their craft as well as what they are creating are the ones that through hard work put out the best quality.

It's funny how many of us as kids didn't think twice about how out of place the cantina aliens looked compared to the rest of the figures. And just compare the original Greedo with any figure released under the ESB, ROTJ or POTF logo, if a complete stranger to Star Wars got hold of him, my bet is that he would say that Greedo is probably not part of the Kenner Star Wars toy line at all. Great vid, as always!

As an original Star Wars fan, a GenX fan; Greedo was definitely one of my favourite cantina figures (along with Hammerhead who was one of the most unique figures of all). When one's name is "Greedo", one's career choices are pretty much set to work for a planetary or intergalactic mobster. ;)

@robertsinfiniterealms1308 7 месяцев назад
I believe I’ve said it previously, but I’m a huge admirer of Stan solos work. I love how his figures look like Kenner. But also I have zero desire to collect that style. It’s similar with black series (although I got the main characters from the OT in that scale, I did not otherwise). And since you mentioned Ollie’s I admit I was tempted to get Obi wan and mando in retro then realized I only wanted to because they were cheap and put them back. I feel similar to O-ring joes (Although recall interests me because so many original creators came back). Sorry I am rambling. Point is I love my childhood Star Wars vintage and will never part with them. I love seeing artisans work and talking about what a great job they did. I’ve never bought one but have been tempted. The droids Stan did were a huge temptation. But thank you for shining a light on these. I love seeing them

And his pistol holding hand was AMAZING for its time. Only to be outmatched by Luke Skywalker X-Wing Pilot action figures pistol hand for securing that blaster.

It’s unfortunate you have to even bother explaining to some people the economics of scale, but I appreciate you taking the time to do it. I see the value and feel Stan Solo is WELL WORTH the price. What, you think you can find these anywhere? Like Wal-Mart? Come on guys. I have a buddy who thinks anything over $10 is a “rip-off” and doesn’t understand the value of a dollar today, compared with the ‘80s, let alone the difference between mass-produced corporate schlock versus small batch, handcrafted artisan wares. I’m so glad we as toy collectors live in a time where companies like Stan Solo can give us what we really want.

I love my SS Greedo. As for the Hasbro Retro line, I have to wonder if they're going to keep making new waves based on Disney+ shows. Those are the ones that wind up on clearance and at discount stores like Ollie's. The latest wave of Retro based on Ahsoka wasn't stocked at Walmart at all, and Target hardly ordered any of them. The Retro figures based on the Original Trilogy sell out quickly.
