Death Squad Commander (A New Hope) Action Figure: Overview

There are a few complaints about the 30th Anniversary Collection Death Squad Commander action figure: For one thing he has quite obtrusive knee and elbow joints and doesn't stand up very well without a figure stand. The Death Squad Commander's blaster really doesn't fit into his holster that well either. On top of that, his face looks slightly sun burnt (compared to his neck); perhaps he's spent too long standing in front of the reactor core of the Death Star.

Despite my best efforts I cannot get the chin strap to fasten around the Death Squad Commander action figure's chin which means that his helmet often slides to the side at a wonky angle. For such an iconic character which in its vintage Kenner iteration (Star Destroyer Commander) had been so cool, this action figure just doesn't seem to capture the essence of that. The Death Squad Commander figure is well-designed (aside from the joints and chin straps), nicely painted and so forth but there's just something missing.



Other 30th Anniversary Collection Action Figures




All Star Wars action figures, vehicles, collectibles and Star Wars toys shown on this website are the 3.75 inch scale and from my own private Star Wars collection unless otherwise stated. Where possible original vintage accessories have been used but in some instances I have placed Kenner Star Wars figures with either reproduction weapons and accessories or for Hasbro figures close approximations have been used. This is mostly the case for modern Star Wars lightsabers where the correct item can be very difficult to identify on some ocassions. Vintage Star Wars action figures are shown with their original weapon or accessory when I have them. When a vintage Kenner action figure is shown with an accessory which is not original I have tried to point this out where possible.

All of the Star Wars action figures shown were purchased second hand, usually incomplete, and in bulk. They have been reunited with their original weapons and accessories where we could get hold of them.
