Force Friday II - The Last Jedi Rey & Elite Praetorian Guard 2-Pack by Hasbro


It was recently announced that JJ Abrams is headed back to the galaxy far, far way and will be Writing and Directing STAR WARS Episode IX. While I'm a little disappointed a third director won't be putting his stamp on the final installment of the Sequel Trilogy, I'm happy to have JJ back to finish what he started. I think he did a phenomenal job with The Force Awakens, using familiar plot elements to introduce us to brand new characters while also bringing STAR WARS to a whole new generation of fans. With so much STAR WARS on the brain, today I'm going to take a look at the Rey & Elite Praetorian Guard 2-pack from The Last Jedi.

Force Friday II - STAR WARS The Last Jedi 3.75" Action Figures by Hasbro


Friday September 1st, 2017 marked the launch of all the new STAR WARS merchandise for the upcoming release of The Last Jedi. The line I'm always most interested in continues to be the 3.75" basic figure line, even if they only have 5 Points of Articulation. This is the scale that built the STAR WARS toy phenomenon; it allows for a great variety of characters and is the perfect scale for all manner of vehicles. Hasbro pulled out all the stops and released eleven different figures in the first two assortments of The Last Jedi line, nine of which seem to be all new sculpts. Today I'm going to give you the run down and take a quick look at all the figures released.
