The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the Logray (Ewok Medicine Man) from the 2011 Vintage Collection’s (Wave 7).
PROS: Hasbro knocks another Ewok sculpt revision out of the park with this new take on Logray. The accessories are great in terms of sculpt and deco. Also, designers went that extra mile and incorporated ball-joint elbow – a first for an Ewok – making this the most highly articulated Ewok yet.
CONS: Fur seems a tad dark when compared to movie still or other reference images, but hardly a reason the pass on this figure, if and when you can find it.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.
You can also weigh in with your impressions on the figures we add to our toyguide on facebook and in our forums.

Hasbrotoyshop.com has the latest wave of Vintage figures in stock! Keep in mind these are only available on their site by the case, but with how depressing the retail distribution has been since Christmas, you might not want to pass up this opportunity.
Now only if Hasbro had packed TWO of each new figure in a case… but regardless, thanks to forumites AaylaSecurasMan and Grimace for the heads up!
Thanks to one of my local MN collector pals, I was able to secure a few of the latest Vintage Collection figures from Wave 7. In today’s “Yak”Facebook Preview, we take a look at Logray (Ewok Medicine Man). This all new version features the most articulation yet for an Ewok, sporting not only ball-jointed hips and ankles, but elbows as well! Let’s hope this trend continues with future furball releases.
