What perhaps resonates with fans is the fact that IG-88 is a free agent he’s beholden to no master or owner, unlike other droids, which represents something truly scary a bounty hunter. While only seen briefly in The Empire Strikes Back, IG-88 has remained popular with fans, appearing in comic books, video games, and cartoons. The STAR WARS RETRO COLLECTION features exquisite design and detailing inspired by the original 1970s STAR WARS figures. A towering, imposing figure, IG-88 is another of Vader’s preferred bounty hunters and is the only droid on this list. STAR WARS RETRO COLLECTION 3.75-INCH SPECIAL BOUNTY HUNTERS 2-PACK DENGAR & IG-88 Figures Hasbro has shared with us the official press release and images which you can find below:

As these figures are still pegged in the toy aisle and not on the collector walls in stores, kids, with the hundreds of hours of Star Wars media content available, should be given more information than a media logo. Simple text like that above is a key part of play and is lost on the current 3 3/4″ line as it has been replaced by international languages, legalese, and TVC aesthetics. Star Wars Retro Collection includes figures from the 40-plus-year legacy of the Star Wars Galaxy, including movies and live-action series. Though Boba Fett had only limited screen time in the original Star Wars trilogy, plenty has been written of the bounty hunter in various, mostly non-canonical fiction, and much of it involves his.

Kids and collectors alike can imagine the biggest battles and missions in the Star Wars saga with figures from Star Wars Retro Collection! With exquisite features and decoration, this series embodies the quality and realism that Star Wars devotees love. IG-88 is a chrome war droid turned bounty hunter who answered the call to capture the Millennium Falcon. A Gand bounty hunter, Zuckuss heeded the Empires call for mercenaries to locate the Millennium Falcon and bring her fugitive crew to justice, receiving his.

The Amazon page provides some more information about the characters and it is something that the current generation of collectors have missed out on and that is information about the toys on the actual packaging: Star Wars Retro Collection Special Bounty Hunters 2-Pack Dengar & IG-88ĭengar is an effective bounty hunter preferring firepower and destruction to finesse and style.

The set is exclusive to Amazon and is currently up for preorder here. Dengar and IG-88 are coming to the retro line later this year in this two-pack. The Bounty Hunters 2-Pack includes modern reissues of two famous Kenner figures from The Empire Strikes Back. This morning Amazon surprised vintage and modern collectors by dropping a “new expression” to the Retro Collection line.
