 Just Like Old Times... Nov 08, 2004
By Dan Poffenbarger
"ToyFreek"
Wow!! Way to go Hasbro. these are FANTASTIC reinterpretations of the original 70's-80's toy line. they are so much simpler than the crap you are putting out for the new episodes. this figure should have been made YEARS ago, but i'm glad it's out now. the packaging is very nostalgic and looks great, the figure has soft goods cape and a lightsabre. the price is a bit steep, so i'm not sure you'll want to fork over $10 for this when there's a $5 version out there. if you're buying for kids you might want to get the cheaper version, if you are a collecter though, this is a MUST HAVE.

 "Remember, The Force Will Be With You...Always." Jul 18, 2004
By the-gr8shag
To celebrate the looong awaited release of the "Star Wars" Trilogy on DVD (9/21 release date), Hasbro decided to release a special set of 12 retro-figures, divided into 3 sets of 4, each representing a film from the Trilogy. Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi is one of the figures from the "Star Wars" set and comes with a new sculpt with his trademark brown Jedi robes (made of cloth) and his blue lightsaber (it looks like the one from the prequels, but, I didn't get to a good look at it). The package is the original style from 1978-79 with the figure housed in the left hand corner with the original card art from the 12 back card. On the back of this card, however, is all new artwork listing the other 11 figures that make up the rest of the set with a quick reference to the original packaging that was used over 25 years ago. The entire figure and card is housed in a protective plastic case (just like the "Marvel Legends" line from Toy-Biz) with the "Star Wars" logo in raised see-through lettering on the back. If your a collector of all things "Star Wars", then you better put some money aside. Don't let these figures pass you by. There are worth every cent.

The new "Vintage" Original Trilogy Collection Obi-wan Kenobi is an excellent addition to any collection. Detail on this model is very good and the newest feature, the high degree of articulation, makes this 3.75" action figures competetive with 12" action figures.
The jedi robe on this figure is a little to oversized and the knee joints lack any articulation so this figure comes up a little short of being the perfect action figure, but it's certainly one of the best. Lightsaber detail is outstanding. Get one before they sell out!
AWESOME!!!! Jul 15, 2004

This is an outstanding "Vintage" Star Wars figure. It will bring you back to 1977 when you saw it on the shelf for the first time. I must say thank you to Hasbro for introducing this line of figures. This is a must purchase for any Star Wars fan.

I like this figure overall, except... his arms were cut at really odd angles!!! Other than that it's an ok figure.
