He’s okay, but I have high hopes for the “Vintage” Jar Jar figure coming out in a few months. I expressed my angst(?!?) over this figure here, but then made peace with him here. Since Hasbro is making some Clone Wars characters in a more “realistic” style starting this year, my dream would be that they’d do a realistic TCW Jar Jar with his bizarre purple gear…but I’m not holding my breath! I wish the paintjob on his head was a tiny bit better, but it’s not worth complaining, because the overall figure is a lot of fun. I reeeeeallly hope there’s a new AOTC Jar Jar in 2013 for the presumed 3D release of AOTC (if they’d ever announce it…)Īwesome. He’s stuck in a weird and contorted pose (like most SW figures from 2002 were), and there’s no way you can get this figure to look neutral/natural. Though I’m happy that Hasbro made an AOTC Jar Jar, man, this figure sucks.

He does come with a fish, though, so there’s that… Until 2012, he was the only JJB with knee joints, even though when he’s standing up, he looks bow-legged. Goofy, but in a way that totally works for me. He came with Sebulba and Anakin…and a mouth smeared with red lipstick. Not the best JJB figure by a longshot, though I feel like if his paintjob was vastly improved, the whole figure would look better. The classic! This Jar Jar is as iconic to me as any vintage Kenner figure that I grew up with. Is it too much to ask for a mournful Revenge of the Sith Funeral Procession Jar Jar figure? It’s kind of a bummer that less than half of them were made in the past 10 years, but at least there’ll be 2 (or 3, including the carbonite Jar Jar) new ones by the end of 2012. Among the figures of Spanish literature, few are so well known as Celestina and.
