    Photo archive for Kenner/Hasbro's 12 inch Star Wars?

    I've checked the usual places like rebelscum and jedi insider but they don't really cover the modern 12 inch line.

    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

    Sir Steve's Guide used to have pictures and info on every figure made in every scale, but I just went to it and it looks like it's now all just news stories. That's a bummer, because it used to rock.

          Jedi temple archives, while not having images, does have a nice checklist of the lrge scale kenner-hasbro items.

            Yep, that's another great SW site. I check their news often. But like you said, unfortunately, they don't have any pics of large size collector figures.

              Any opinions on which 12 inch Hasbro Han Solo is considered the best likeness?

                I think the first Hasbro release was the best one.

                  You like that one better than the Han Solo with Magnetic Detonators or European Exclusive Quick Draw Han?

                    I'm not a Star Wars collector, but I saw a Hasbro 12" Han at a toy show this past weekend that came in his ROJ duster, and I thought it had a really good Ford likeness. It was pretty cheap too. I was tempted.

                      Did you just want the classic movie figures? (aka no prequels?)
                      Figurerealm's got a pretty good Star Wars section, but you'll have to hunt and peck to find the 12" figures. I found alot of the sections, but I'm sure I missed some.
                      Here's the entire Star Wars Universe there...
                      http://www.figurerealm.com/universes...verse=starwars

                      ___________________________
                      I've found a couple of categories of classics 12" figures, with Kenner and Hasbro name swapping:


                      The Collector Series are the late 90's ones (this whole series is 12"). There are pictures inside each section, tho not always big:
                      http://www.figurerealm.com/checklist...ollectorseries

                      Power of the Force late 90's:
                      http://www.figurerealm.com/galleries...sid=231&ssid=1

                      here's some 2002 Power of the Jedi 12" (mostly classic):
                      http://www.figurerealm.com/galleries...sid=232&ssid=1

                      There's a bunch of 2003 12" classics in the the Saga section here, at the topish, each movie has it's own section.
                      (MAN, I want those Jawas!!... and Ewoks!)
                      http://www.figurerealm.com/checklist...s=starwarssaga

                      and a few 2004 'Original Trilogy' 12 inchers (those are neat):
                      (no Han Solo?#!)
                      http://www.figurerealm.com/galleries...sid=493&ssid=5


                      ....and the prequels all have 12-inchers in their own sections....

                        Thank you for the links. That's perfect.

                        Yeah, those are great. Love the Chewie in the set. Hasbro finally hit their stride with those. Too bad they stopped making classic Trilogy 12 inch figures after that. Han Solo really should have gotten an update for the OTC series. At the very least to make up for the dreadful 2003 version.

                          No doubt! And some of those heads are just alarmingly large for the bodies. I always found that to be so disconcerting.
                          ... but the 2003 version, what the hell is up with his hair! Is he a Beatles?!
