Today marks the official availability of the exclusive Luke Skywalker talking figure from the Disney Store. It is available in stores and online for $29.95.
The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with our first entry for the Disney Store exclusive large scale talking figures. We kick things off with the Stormtrooper.
PROS: Proving that a realistically styled and detailed figures will draw both young and old collectors alike, Disney really hands Hasbro their lunch in producing a desirable figure at a relatively modest price point. The overall sculpt is fantastic (with accurate human proportions) and stable for displaying in various poses thanks to multiple points of articulation. The 20+ high-quality sound effects are pulled right from A New Hope and are very clear with little to no distortion. Batteries (included) are removable to prevent corrosion.
CONS: Not really anything to speak of other than the included holster is functional for no apparent reason and is inaccurately sculpted.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery (and SFX demo) and judge for yourself whether this piece 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.

It’s time for a Star Wars Collectors Cast Special Report featuring all the news and reveals from the Disney Store event held last week in Los Angeles. With Dan Curto and Steve Sansweet both attending the event we get their perspectives, as well as a roundup of all the latest goings on at Rancho Obi-Wan and lots more too.
Next up in our Disney Star Wars Event focus are the new plush items featuring R2 (with swivel dome), Jawa, Bantha and Tauntaun (no open belly – yet). The fit and finish of the actual product we saw in store was great and thus will make a great gift to any plush fan or collector. Pricing for R2 and Jawa is $9.95 each, the Bantha, Tauntaun and Chewbacca (not shown) are $19.95 each. Click on through for the gallery.
