Extremely territorial and xenophobic, Tusken Raiders will attack with very little provocation. Covered from head-to-foot in tattered rags and robes, Tusken Raiders -- or Sand People as they are also known -- brandish a deadly bladed club known as a gaderffii.

Today Hot Toys is delighted to continue expanding its Star Wars collection series by officially introducing the new 1/6th scale Tusken Raider collectible figure inspired by the acclaimed Star Wars™ series The Mandalorian™.



The highly-accurate collectible figure is specially crafted based on the appearance of the Tusken Raider. Highlighting the features are the newly developed head sculpt with tattered rags, skillfully tailored outfit, belt and bandolier, the iconic gaderffii and rifle, and a display base.

This article appeared in The Straits Times LIFE section on Nov 14, 2020.
In the living room of a four-room Housing Board flat in Whampoa, two large two large figurines of Bruce Lee stand guard.
One has the martial arts film star in his Fist Of Fury (1972) get-up and the other in his iconic yellow Game Of Death (1978) jumpsuit.
The walls are adorned with framed photos and glass cabinets showcase endless rows of Bruce Lee memorabilia. Hundreds of magazines and books with the late Hong Kong-American star on the cover are stowed away neatly.
The flat's owner is Mr Jackson Yeo, an avid Bruce Lee fan and souvenir collector.

Ahead of what would have been the star's 80th birthday this month, Mr Yeo tells The Straits Times his love for Lee feels "like fate".

The 57-year-old hawker stall owner says he watched re-runs of Lee's television series The Green Hornet (1966 to 1967) since he was nine and was quickly enraptured.

Star Wars toys discovered in bin bags net £400,000 (US$525,000) for UK couple

LONDON: A British couple have thanked their lucky stars after a garage full of bin bags left to them by a neighbour yielded a trove of Star Wars toys worth £400,000 (US$525,000).

The couple, from Stourbridge in central England, were initially unsure what to make of the jumble of dolls and spacecraft their neighbour had spent decades collecting, the Times newspaper reported on Thursday (Nov 5).

Their son called in an auctioneer, who found a treasure trove of Star Wars memorabilia including action figures still pristine in their sealed packaging.


"A lot of them were a bit damp because of how they've been stored but generally it's the best Star Wars collection I've ever seen," Chris Aston of Aston's Auctioneers, told the Times.

"We had a huge amount of interest from all over the world and were always expecting the sale to do very well," Aston said of the auction.
