  • Review: Star Wars Black Series MagnaGuard, Revenge of the Sith Anniversary

    "Crush them! Make them suffer!" To celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Revenge of the Sith, Hasbro released another series of Star Wars Black Series figures on cardbacks inspired by the original 3.75” releases from 2005. Like most Anniversary releases to date, these were a mix of re-packs and tweaked characters picked from the existing line-up of figures.  The Black Series MagnaGuard  was first released in 2023, based on their white and cream colouring from The Clone Wars. The base figure went on to be reused in 2024 as a Bedlam Raider MagnaGuard  in the Gaming Greats line and as seen in Jedi: Survivor. The Revenge of the Sith Anniversary Series presented the opportunity to revisit the MagnaGuard and release them as seen during the events of Revenge of the Sith as they faced off against Obi-Wan Kenobi on Utapau.  The Revenge of the Sith Anniversary series cardbacks are taken directly from the original 2005 toyline, with a cardback shaped as Darth Vader’s head, with the head sitting over a flaming lava scene from Mustafar as the bottom third of the cardback. Vader’s red eyes stared out from behind the blister, while reflected in his helmet was the duel on the Lava Plains between Obi-Wan and Anakin. The cardfront is the same for all releases with the circular shaped bubble including the character image and details as an inserted sleeve section that wraps around the front of the figures feet and with the cut out of the character raising upward on the left hand side of the packaging while the central portion is turned over to the original Revenge of the Sith logo in orange and yellow. The cardback carries further imagery of the MagnaGuard as well as an image of the posed figure, but it lacks any background for the droid with the text turned over to a positioning piece about the Anniversary series as a whole. As with any cardback, the packaging is damaged to open the figure. The MagnaGuard is presented in the blue metallic finish we see during the Utapau scenes in Revenge of the Sith, with gun metal components around the joints, around the inner workings of the stomach section, anda t the hands and feet. The blue is also painted to look scratched and battle worn, with scratched segments and wear revealing a gun-metal finish underneath. This ‘weathering’ is very well applied and covers the entirety of the droid rather than being focused in one area, usually the upper torso, as seen on other figures. The only other colour on the droid is the central chest red panel, with the same colour also used on the droid's eyes.  The head features the IG-100 droid head, but sculpted as though wrapped in the headgear that is also part of the robes the Droid wears. The robotic parts are again gunmetal with blue metallic panels, while the eyes, as mentioned, are two large gloss red discs peering out from the partial hood. This hood is an off white in colour, sculpted as part of the head and designed to look as though it flows directly into the soft goods cape below. This cape, tucked in beneath the head and neck, is a lighter fabric similar to the Sith Robes and shaped to hold its place around the right hand side of the MagnaGuard and hug the body front and back. There are green arrowed markings added to the cape, again screen accurate, while the edges in places are given a burnt look with tattered edges cut into the cloth for additional weathering. Again, this is a nice level of detail to weather the soft goods as much as the body itself.  On comparison, the base bodies of the original MagnaGuard and the ROTS version are identical, with variations only in the paint and the soft goods robes. Both figures also share the same articulation and accessories. vs Clone Wars MagnaGuard from 2023 (right) Those accessories are two versions of the Electrostave weapons wielded by the guards in close combat. Like the original figure, you can choose from one staff with enclosed ends in a clear plastic dome, recreating the weapons used in the animated Clone Wars appearances. Or you can select the movie accurate version where the ends are not enclosed and include a larger collar and then taper up more of a point at each end.  Both are cast in a base grey plastic with hardly any detail included. You can fit them in one or both hands, although this takes a bit more work than usual, as the figure accurately replicates the clawed grip of the MagnaGuards with two fingers closing one way, and two ‘thumbs’ closing the other way to create the four-digit grip.  You can also add electro effects courtesy of two included soft plastic translucent pink pieces that are intended to wrap the end of either of the staffs. These work reasonably well, but are far from secure and their softer plastic nature does see them slipping down or off a bit too easily. Articulation on our MagnaGuard is similar in principle to all Separatist-era Droids, with the droid joints engineered in a similar fashion to how their are shown on screen, with visible round pinned pivots at the elbows, knees and ankles. There are 18 joints in total, including swivels above the knees and above the wrists to compensate for the linear nature of the main joints that work in a single direction. The skeletal nature of the droids and the joint configuration makes the MagnaGuard pretty extensive in posing options, although the slim frame of the Droid and lack of any significant mass does make the figure prone to stability problems.  There are also frustrating issues at the shoulders where the shoulder armour is meant to be pivoted to move with the arms. The plastic here is so soft that the pivot doesn’t grip at all securely, and the shoulders ping off at the most negligible of movement. While the original had the same issue, it appears to be even worse on our ROTS version.  The Anniversary release of the Revenge of the Sith MagnaGuard certainly looks the part, both packaged up as per the 2005 toy line, and in hand, thanks to a very well-proportioned sculpt and decor that includes a consistent level of weathering and damage that even includes the soft goods cloak. The figure poses reasonably well, but the joints are less sturdy than a humanoid figure, and the skeletal frame makes it less secure once stood. The shoulder armour will frustrate no end, but save for glueing it in place, there is no obvious solution. A potential for a future re-pack into the Revenge of the Sith Galaxy Collection, the figure presents as an army-builder, so that wouldn’t cause too many issues and would expand that limited collection out beyond the handful of releases to date.

  • Review: Star Wars Black Series MagnaGuard, The Clone Wars, Galaxy Collection Wave 12

    "Crush them! Make them suffer!" The IG-100 MagnaGuard was one of the most dangerous droids seen during the Clone Wars, and it made its Black Series debut in 2023 as part of Wave 12 of the Galaxy Series. Wave 12 was a mixed wave also including figures from Return of the Jedi, and The Bad Batch. There were three other Clone Wars releases with the Mk2 Clone Trooper and Ahsoka Tano released with the MagnaGuard. Wave 12 was the final wave to feature plastic-free packaging so our MagnaGuard arrives in a window-less box using a combination of artwork and figure imagery to confirm the contents. The MagnaGuard is number 15 in The Clone Wars Galaxy Series and uses the golden yellow accent colour. The side artwork connects to the Phase II Clone Trooper from the same wave and then leads into ARC Trooper Fives release which arrived a few months ahead of the MagnaGuard. The Black Series MagnaGuard is a full new figure and the look taken from the Body Guards used by General Grievous complete with their Kaleesh warrior inspired head wraps and capes. The Guard uses a black skeletal structure that incorporates most of the joints. The armoured sections making up the bulk of the body are then connected into the sub-skeleton and are cast in light grey and feature a significant amount of weathering and battle damage. Further details are then added with gunmetal silver around some key components like the knees and chest, with a red central power core.  The head features red eyes and a gun-metal grey mouth/nose section. The cloth wrappings are sculpted around the head in a lighter white finish. The robes are then executed in soft goods, with a tailored white robe connected and fixed under the head. The stitched panels then shape the cloak around the right-hand side of the body and the piece is finished with cloth printing with some burgundy arrowed icons. The soft goods do sit quite flat and lack the definition, folds, and creases we would see in a sculpted cloak. The trade-off is the articulation, with the soft goods allowing a full range of motion.  That articulation comes in at 18 points which is made up of the standard joints, but also some additional rotations abobe the knees and wrists to further support the more linear design of the pinned joints, but in reality, provides a wide range of pose-ability. The joints are all designed into the robotic nature of the body and in the main are single joints with both a pivot and rotation included. There was a lot of noise on the figures release about stability and the ankle joints. This is an issue out of the box with the feet not sitting flat and overbalancing the figure. With just a bit of hot water treatment and some repositioning, the issue is soon fixed. Another problem, that I haven’t solved, is the two shoulder armoured pieces which are loosely clipped into the arms. The clip is a hinge of sorts allowing the shoulder panel to move with the arms, but they do pop off with alarming regularity.  The Guard features two versions of the electrostave weapons used through The Clone Wars. The first is the one we see most of in the animated series and this features a simple grey staff with two component ends housed in a clear acrylic dome. The second one is the one we see more on-screen during Revenge of the Sith and has a similar shaft but with a simpler cone end. This second one can also be combined with a pair of soft plastic translucent pink/purple electro effects. These are shaped to sit and hold in place around either end of this version electrostave, but the shape isn’t compatible with the enclosed version. Our Guard can wield the electrotaves in one of both hands with a wide range of posing stances either neutral in terms of posing these MagnaGuards alongside General Grievous in a guarding position, or in more dynamic fighting stances. It is worth noting the design of the hands with thumbs on either side of two central fingers makes it a little bit more difficult to get the weapon into position. As our Separatist Droid armies grow within the Black Series, the MagnaGuard is a welcome addition to display alongside the B1 Droids and General Grievous. It is really well executed with a good sculpt, impressive paint job, and great articulation. There are niggles with the feet and stability and those pesky shoulder panels, but these can be worked around and the weaponry and effect pieces enhance the figure with more display options. The droid also lays down the option for further variants such as the uncloaked version and possibly evolving some parts into a Commando Droid figure in the future.

  • Review: Star Wars Black Series Dash Rendar from Shadows of the Empire, Galaxy Collection Fan Channel Wave

    “I decided it was time to pay the Empire back." Hasbro’s first Star Wars Black Series release from the 1995 multi-media Shadows of the Empire project was Prince Xizor , released in the Spring of 2025 as part of a Galaxy Collection Fan Channel wave. The line would be further expanded in the early Autumn of 2025 with the Hasbro Pulse Exclusive Luke Skywalker & Princess Leia SOTE 2-Pack Exclusive, and the figure we will take a look at here, Dash Rendar.  Dash Rendar is another Fan Channel Wave, part of the 3rd wave to be released in 2025 via the Fan Channel route and also including figures of Bariss Offee from Attack of the Clones, a Jedi Temple Guard from The Clone Wars, and The Ronin from Star Wars Visions. The box features the same purple hue as established with Prince Xizor, with Rendar number 02 in the Star Wars Shadows of the Empire series. The side art for Dash connects directly to that of Xizor, we are waiting to see who will be the next single release to join the line with the Luke & Leia set artwork not being compatible in the wider montage. The artwork itself is its own iteration of Dash and not directly based on the established ‘real world’ artwork seen in the Shadows of the Empire comics or video game content. The back of the box carries a brief overview of his role in relation to his interactions with the key characters of Luke and Leia, starting at the Battle of Hoth. The internal cardback, also in the accented purple colouring, includes an illustration of the Outrider, Dash's heavily modified Corellian freighter. Like the artwork, the figure is based on the 1990s Shadows of the Empire design principles, with Dash a brand new sculpt from the ground up and wearing his chosen flight gear that includes a blue and brown quilted flight suit, gun metal chest armour, quilted brown shoulder pads, leather brown gloves and black gloss boots. Dash is also sporting a gunslinger's belt, similar in style to Han’s with a standard belt, and lower slung holster belt with a working brown holster sitting over his right thigh.  The likeness chosen for Dash is a new iteration and younger than perhaps he is seen in some of the existing content, including giving him a clean shaven look. It is difficult to say if the likeness is accurate without a direct source for comparison, but it certainly meets the realistic style for the Black Series and looks somewhere between Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Prince Charming from Shrek. While it works and brings Dash into a modern setting, it is perhaps not the older and more rugged stubbly look we may remember. Dash includes a single accessory, his DL-44 blaster, which is again very similar to Han’s. It is cast in gunmetal finish with no further detailing to either the grip, barrel or the sights. It slots into Dash's right hand where a standard trigger finger locks into place, or it can be holstered snugly in the working hip holster. Articulation is 21 points in total, all pinless. This is a higher count than usual for a current Black Series format, thanks to two extra simple rotation joints included in the boot cut and the cut of the gloves. Rendar is relatively expansive in the options for posing, with the belt flexible to move with the legs, and the shoulder pads a softer plastic and hinged so they move with the arms. There are plenty of display options in line with Dash’s character, particularly while wielding his blaster or simply looking smug and arrogant. The fact that we are getting Shadows of the Empire Black Series figures some 30 years after its release is an impressive feat, and Dash Rendar is an admirable addition to the line alongside Xizor and the Luke & Leia releases. While the likeness may not be to everyone’s taste, it fits well into the wider Black Series aesthetic and behaves very much like his contemporaries in the line, particularly Han Solo, whom he technically stood in for during the events of SOTE while Han was in Carbonite. The hope is that the Shadows line will reach a point of relative completeness, adding Chewbacca as Snoova as seen in the 90s line, but also going a step further and bringing us Guri and SOTE version of Luke, Lando and Leia, not just their disguised versions.  Dash Rendar is available now at Fan Channel retailers with the usual £24.99 RRP.

  • Review: Star Wars Black Series Jedi Temple Guard from The Clone Wars, Galaxy Collection Fan Channel Wave

    "To be a Temple Guard is not a specialty or a profession. It is a sacred duty to which any Jedi Knight, or Master, may be summoned." The Jedi Temple Guards have only appeared onscreen a handful of times in the Star Wars Universe and always within an animated project, namely The Clone Wars, and with a flashback scene in Star Wars Rebels. Despite this, they have become increasingly popular in fandom with their ornate design that now feels like it bridges the gap back to the High Republic and their fighting prowess and stoic personalities. There is also the intriguing principle of the Grand Inquisitor being a former Jedi Temple Guard, further extending their legacy. The Jedi Temple Guard made its Black Series debut in the early Autumn of 2025, arriving as part of the 3rd Fan Channel Galaxy Collection wave of that year alongside Barriss Offee , Dash Rendar , and The Ronin from Star Wars Visions. The Guard was released under 'The Clone Wars' banner, numbered as 20 in the series, with the golden accent colour used on the text and the side artwork. The side image of the Jedi Temple Guard wielding its dual-bladed saber connects to the Savage Oppress Deluxe release.  The imagery is repeated on the reverse of the box, along with a short background piece that talks about the history of the Jedi Temple Guards and their weaponry in particular. The figure is set against a colour-coordinated backing card in the box, with an embedded image of the interior of the Jedi Temple.  The Temple Guard is a new figure from the ground up, and like all Clone Wars and Rebels figures to date, there has been some level of conversion from the animated styling to a more realistic setting. The robes start with the basic frame of the figure and a beige torso, beige upper arms, and darker grey brown trousers, all sculpted with a flowing, baggy robe design. Over the torso sits the white sash armour weave robes, complete with sculpted and then gold-painted Jedi emblem on either side.  There is a three-layer skirt starting with an inner soft goods skirt in beige, with lighter beige trim. Over this sits the outer, darker brown skirt piece in softer plastic; this is trimmed in gold. The final layer is a belt and sash piece, also in softer plastic. The belt is relatively plain in brown colouring, but we then have a line of hanging ‘keys’ in silver and gold. The outfit is finished with some layered ringed gloves in beige and brown, and a pair of knee-high boots with sweeping knee armour. The Guard’s hood is part of the upper robes and is shaped from soft plastic around the headpiece and cannot be removed or moved. Within the hood sits the head, complete with the mask in white with sculpted gold relief designs and a pair of rectangular slit eye pieces painted in black.  Our guard wields the usual dual-bladed saber as seen in Clone Wars and Rebels, and this is a single piece of dull gold coloured plastic with a central gunmetal silver grip. A peg on one side of the hilt allows it to be holstered by plugging it into a socket on the Temple Guard’s belt. The weapon includes two yellow translucent blades that fit into the sockets on either end of the weapon. You can therefore choose to display the Temple Guard wielding a single or dual-blade, or even an unlit or holstered weapon. Articulation in terms of a count of joints is relatively high, with 17 points in total. There is, however, a compromise between the sculpted robes and the joints, with the legs partially held back by the skirts, and the head by the hood, albeit still able to move within the confines of the hood. The arms are relatively extensive in their movement, thanks to butterfly shoulders, allowing a number of weapon-wielding poses with the lightsaber. The legs, while limited in motion, provide a stable base for the Guard, who is steadfast once posed and with no balance issues.  The Jedi Temple Guard is an impressive looking design that breaks the browns and beiges of the usual Jedi characters from the Clone Wars era with a gold and white design as well as a yellow-bladed light saber not seen outside the figures from the Acolyte or the Old Republic era. The transition from animation to real world setting feels right, with the guard holding good proportions alongside other characters. I do prefer the more recent approach of prioritising the look of robes over the functionality, and the Jedi Temple Guard is perhaps not as articulate as we’d like, but with a much better overall aesthetic than using a full soft goods robe. A great figure for your Clone Wars display, or even to sit with your High Republic Acolyte figures, and one that also presents an army build opportunity.

  • Review: Star Wars Black Series KX Security Droid Enforcer & Droideka from Jedi: Survivor, Gaming Greats Amazon Exclusive 2-Pack

    “This way Jedi” The Jedi games from EA have taken many of the Empire's Troop types and converted them in various fashions to become fodder for the game's hero, Cal Kestis, to battle against. In Jedi: Survivor, that same principle was also applied to the Droids of the Separatists from the Clone Wars, bringing them under the banner of the Bedlam Raiders faction and setting them to further thwart Cal on his quest. To that end, many of the Gaming Greats Star Wars Black Series releases from Jedi: Fallen Order and Jedi: Survivor have been tweaked versions of existing figures from the wider Star Wars franchise. The latest of these is an Amazon Exclusive  2-pack featuring a KX Security Droid Enforcer and a Bedlam Raider Droideka, both repaints of existing Black Series releases. The set was released in the Autumn of 2025 and arrives in a twin Black Series box that is also deeper than usual for the bulk of the Destroyer Droid in particular. As a Gaming Greats release, it carries the Gaming Greats silver foil sticker and uses the blue accent colour for the text and artwork. This is not a numbered release, so while there is a side art panel split between the two droids of the set, it does not connect into or have any link to the other Gaming Greats releases.  The text on the rear of the box has no bearing as such to the source material, simply confirming the role of the KX Enforcer within the Empire as a training tool primarily, and referring to the Droideka Destroyer Droid as a Battlefield Terror. Inside the box, the inner tray is colour coordinated with the artwork and box text and includes an image of one the many bases Cal explores during Jedi: Survivor. When the first KX Droid appears on screen in Jedi: Survivor during the opening scenes on Coruscant, it is a cream coloured variant, while Hasbro had released the variant black version in 2022  as an advanced release for the game. While this black variant is seen later on in the game, the cream version was striking in its colouring and some 3 years later we can now add the figure to our collection.  The KX Enforcer is the exact same figure as the KX Security Droid  released in 2022 for Jedi: Survivor, a figure that itself uses the original 2016 K-2SO figure  from Rogue One. This latest version swaps out the dull black armoured panels for cast cream parts, a cream that is quite light compared to the game graphics. The armour is all overlaid over silver joint circular joints and a central silver torso section. The figure in the game is quite weathered, but our Black Series equivalent is presented factory-clean with the only other decor on the body being some red trim at the shoulders, and some white Imperial decals on either shoulder panel. These are accurate to the game, but the similarity in colours does render them difficult to see, again indicating the colour palette may be slightly off. There are several areas significantly lacking in paint detail compared to the game design, notably the rear panel of the droid which is left in its base cream colour  The head of the KX unit is cream across the skull plate, but with a silver-painted jaw section and neck. The eye sockets are painted white, but look dull compared to what should be glowing white-blue eyes of the droid. While that is difficult to achieve without actual light-up functionality, some blue would have made them stand out a little better.  As also included in the original Security Droid version, and as used by the KX Enforcer, there is a battery backpack for the droid that powers the electro-staff weapon we will see shortly. The backpack is optional, so can be left off for a variant look for the droid, connecting by way of two shaped pegs that correspond to the sockets on the back of the droid's torso. The battery pack is the same tan colour, with a large gunmetal cooling grille and four side vents, with these vents also trimmed in red. The control panel, like the rear panel of the droid, is detailed on the battery pack but left unpainted. A pair of flexible red tubes come out of one of these upper vents and are connected to the KX Droid’s right arm by way of two flexible plastic cream clips.  The electro-staff weapon is again the same as the KX Security Droid and is cast in dull grey and in two parts that connect in the middle, and also allows the weapon to be extended or contracted. In the game, the KX Enforcer can holster this weapon on his right thigh, but that is not engineered into the figure. The weapon fits in either or both hands, and the electro shock effect is recreated by a blue transparent energy piece in softer plastic that ‘wraps’ the end of the weapon. The Enforcer has 21 points of articulation, all designed to incorporate the visible round industrial joints of the droid itself. The circular joints of the elbows, knees and ankles provide the bend, while rotational joints above the knees and elbows allow for the limbs to be further positioned outward or inward to the body. There is suitable torso movement to facilitate posing the droid into more dynamic shots, while the head is similarly mobile thanks to the dual ball joints at the base and top of the neck.  While the earlier K-2SO releases did have weaker joints and balance issues, these more recent Jedi: Survivor droids are more robust in their joint construction and despite its height, long legs, and too-heavy design there is no issue when the KX Enforcer is posed for display.  Moving on to our Droideka, and this is the same exact Destroyer Droid  released in 2024 as part of The Phantom Menace collection. In a direct parallel with the game itself, this base Droid has then be redecorated with the markings of the Bedlam Raiders to tie it into the game and the other Droid releases to date from that faction.  Out of the box there is an immediate issue with the way my Droideka was packed, and a potential issue with them all. The central primary sensor array is bent entirely backwards on itself, thanks to the shape of the inner tray. Despite several unsuccessful heat and reshape attempts, I have given upon actually getting it into the correct position. The bronzium armoured panels of the Droideka, namely around the central body, the ends of the trio of legs and across the large circular cowl of the head and glove central body, are burgundy as a base colour, and it is here the Bedlam Raider colour schemes are applied with added cream and black geometric designs and trims. The ‘inner droid workings’ themselves are left in a dullish grey finish with some darker grey used on joints, on the flexible spine section, and around some of the tubing. The guns feature the same burgundy colouring, with grey barrels and metallic bronze energisers.  The Droideka has no accessories. Its articulation is all designed around the engineering of the Droid in fighting position. There are around 24 joints throughout the droid's body, some of which have been enhanced with metal pegs to support what is quite a precarious design. The three legs are all jointed in two places and again with a final pivot where they connect to the domed reactor section. From here, the spine piece has a couple of joints to adjust the stance and height, as well as a pair of hinged panels that can extend out or fold in. The arms appear to have a joint where they connect to the central body but don’t move within this joint. They are then joined at two further joints down the length of the arm with a clever piston movement seen on the elbow, as well as with flexible wiring that moves with the joint. The upper carapace moves marginally within a clipped hinge that holds it in place, while the front section can be moved more extensively on a very tiny ball joint. This articulation allows you to vary the Destroyer in a number of positions particularly by splaying out the feet or bringing them inward and by adjusting the gun arms to varying firing positions. While there is an intention for the joints to also facilitate some version of the ‘rolling’ Destroyer Droid, this is relatively unsuccessful - unless I am doing it wrong as there is no guidance or instructions on how to roll the Droid up. The nearest we can get is a kind of folded down deactivated version. There are YouTube versions out there to help you get the best out of this function, but for me the final look is simply not worthwhile, and the Droideka might as well be left in fighting stance.  At a retail price of £49.99 here in the UK, this set reflects the equivalent price of two single releases which on paper is not bad considering the Destroyer is classed as a Deluxe release. That price is likely to fluctuate on Amazon  who hold the exclusivity and are likely to offer deals on this while stocks last. With Amazon the only place to buy this, there is a definite issue for boxed collectors, considering how little care is taken by Amazon when packing and delivering. Our box arrived with a beat up corner that has obviously happened before it was even packed.  As an exclusive set it works in so much it re-uses existing figures, remains accurate to the source material, but sits outside the main collections both in terms of the continuation of the usual connected box artwork and numbering, but also as very ancillary characters in a collection that may well be ignoring the Gaming Greats series all together or focusing on key elements like Cal, Merrin, and Dagan Gera.  The set is far from perfect, with both Droids' appearances being too clean, and with a paint job on the KX Enforcer that is a couple of shades too light. They do expand out your Imperial and Bedlam Raider squads even further, the Droideka in particular looking good alongside the other Bedlam Droids.
