Vinyl Figures

Wal-Mart east in Madison had some of the new Hasbro Vinyl figures. Hasbro took over this part of the Star Wars license from Applause who handled these types of figures during Episode I. There are four figures in the set including Darth Vader, Jango Fett, Anakin Skywalker, and Mace Windu. The figures are fairly large and their boxes are about the size of the 12" electronic figures. They have no (or limited) articulation and I thought the paint jobs were poor. At Wal-Mart's price of $13.96, I decided to pass on them.
