Why doesn't Hasbro remake this? This was so goated

Power of the Force is peak toy line, best star wars line ever made. Like, Mcfarlane remade Super Power collection so why not?

I mean with the proportions they had, closer to the old toys

Nice, when is it out?

Im collecting this set now. That short saber/long tray Vader is cool.

>>11650315
Because everything except the vehicles are at or slightly above their original retail price, so it's not worth it

Lstings went up for the Marvel ones on Amazon and they said January 1st. I'd imagine it wouldn't be too far out for the Star Wars ones but no listings have popped up yet.

The line ended in 1999/2000. Even if it was printed to hell it's still gonna dwindle. I am collecting them out of nostalgia so Idgaf about the prices.

what I love about these now is that a lot of them are a moment in time—a beautiful moment, before the phantom menace ruined SW, and during a period of very active EU. all the Shadows stuff is so based.
I can’t bring myself to re-collect them but I’m tempted sometimes. hope they stay cheap for anyone who wants them

I agree 100%.
Right before Phantom Menace was actual, unironic PEAK Star Wars. Shadows of the Empire was the last time every piece of Star Wars media was great

I remember seeing this in stores and my 7 year old self didn't give a shit since it wasn't from the movies...then I played SotE and wanted it so bad but couldn't find it.

It really was, I got a N64 for christmas in 1996, then in January my parents take me to see Star Wars A New Hope, It was the greatest thing I had ever seen, I went to the store and they had tons of figures of characters that i had no idea who they were and I could only imagine. It didn't take long since the next month The empire strikes back came out in theaters and I was blown away, I got some toys and love the first two movies and then bam out of nowhere just a month later Return of the Jedi comes out, I watch it and fucking loved it. Got more figures as well to go along with the movie, including some Shadows of the Empire toys, at this point I knew who all the characters were but didn't know who the SOTE guys were, and then I realize one day that there's a N64 game called that so I get it for my birthday along with the VHS trilogy of star wars (which were actually the non-special edition versions, as a kid I just thought they removed stuff from the VHS releases which is why there was no jabba in ANH for example). So much star wars in such little time. I was hyped as fuck for The Phantom Menace, hell the whole world was, but the toys, the video games, they didn't hit the same despite me still being a kid.
