Mandalorian Warrior (Holiday Edition)
Today we will look at the 6-inch Star Wars Black Series Holiday Mandalorian Warrior. this is a regular Mandalorian warrior done up in some holiday cheer.

PACKAGING:
Before we open this up, let's take a look at the packaging.
The Mandalorian Warrior comes in the normal rectangular-styled box but is done up in a holiday look. The top of the box has the Star Wars Black Series logo. The Mandalorian is displayed in the middle with the figure’s name listed below.
Turning the box to the side we get what looks like a To & From tag but written in Mandalorian.
The back of the box gives us the To & From tag wrapping around along with a little write-up.
The other side of the box lets us look into the side of the box to get a look at the figure from the side.
OUTSIDE OF THE BOX:
Let's open the box and take a closer look at the figure.
Taking the figure out of the box we get to see all the red and green on the figure. It really makes him pop. The coolest thing about the figure is the chest. Hasbro made it up to make it look like he is wearing a holiday ugly sweater. It’s the highlight of this figure.

RATING:
What are Baby Huey's scores for the figure?
PAINT JOB 5/5
The paint job on the chest alone makes it a 5 out of 5
FIGURE SCULPT 4/5
The sculpt is pretty well done, however the limit on the elbows does make it a little hard to pose sometimes
POSING 3.5/5
Double-jointed elbows or even an upper bicep cut would have helped out a lot.
ACCESSORIES: 3/5
You give us a figure that has two gun holsters and then don’t give us the guns for them????
DURABILITY 4/5
The plastic is overall good, the ankles are a little soft and I wonder about them giving out over time.
OVERALL SCORE 3.9/5
It’s a fun figure for the holidays but he isn’t a must-need for anyone.
RETAIL COST: $26.99
I picked mine up at TARGET.
TIME FOR SOME TOYING AROUND!!
So another year has come and gone, this year like the year before wasn’t the greatest but at least we did get some really cool toys and action figures. I just want to thank you all for all the love and support you all give me, this would not be possible if not for all of you so thank you!
