MORE INFORMATION

  • This Ponda Boba figure was released single boxed in late December 2021
  • The figure is a straight re-pack of the HasbroPulse.com exclusive Ponda Baba figure but with less accessories (there were no fins included)
  • Ponda Baba came with a blaster and a removable jacket
  • Ponda Baba's jacket is removable, but the jacket's sleeves are sculpted and painted onto the arms so taking it off doesn't make sense
  • The color tones on the pants and jacket match Ponda Baba from A New Hope well
  • The head sculpt looks very nice on this figure
  • The blaster was painted well with silver details on it and a red grip
  • The wrists have rocker-joints in them but because the sleeves go a little over the hand it's not possible to bend the wrists much
  • The arm is not removable and you can't re-create the scene after Ponda Baba's arm was cut-off by Obi-Wan Kenobi
  • The blaster doesn't fit into the holster
  • Ponda Baba stands well on display without falling over
  • Even though the legs were sculpted with a stripe on the sides it was left unpainted (it should have been yellow on both sides)
  • This Ponda Baba figure has room left for improvement, the side stripes on the pants need to be painted, the holster needs to be functional and the arm which Obi-Wan cut off should be removable (come on Hasbro, you got this right in the 3 3/4" line more than 20+ years ago!)
