The release of later waves of the Micro Machines blind bags has been somewhat sporadic here in New Zealand. Fortunately, my buddy Daniel helped me nab a few of the miniatures from Waves 4 and 5 - including Jabba the Hutt, Grumgarr, Anakin Skywalker's Clone Wars Jedi Starfighter, and Kanan's Speederbike - from overseas. I also recently managed to find the wampa from Wave 2 and the rancor from wave 3 that I'd spent a long while trying to hunt down.
Both Anakin's Jedi Starfighter and Kanan's Speederbike make great additions to the growing line of miniatures from the Clone Wars and Rebels TV shows. And while my Micro Machines focus is usually on vehicles, this particular selection of characters and creatures was far too interesting to pass up. We've seen various Micro Machines versions of Jabba, the rancor, and the wampa before, but these are brand new (and, arguably, far more screen-accurate) sculpts of each. The same is true of Grumgarr, who hasn't yet seen a release in any other set. All six miniatures are sculpted and painted to the same high quality that we've come to expect from the Micro Machines line, and Jabba and the rancor are even loaded with a couple of points of articulation.
