Kenner 2" Retro & 4.75" Action Collection Yoda

I’ve collected a couple of Yoda figures recently: a more recent 2″ Kenner Retro Collection Yoda and a 4.75″ Action Collection Yoda from ’97. I really wanted a 3.75″ scale Yoda like I had as a kid and lucked upon the Retro Collection Yoda at a decent price- better than I could find a clean vintage sample for. Cracking open a fresh Yoda like I had in youth was kind of a thrill in spite of some collector’s misgivings about this line of re-released Star Wars figures.

Below, Yoda with my vintage Obi-Wan Kenobi, and some other Empire Strikes Back figures I’ve collected recently- some vintage, some from the Retro Collection…

I found this 4.75″ Kenner Action Collection Yoda loose on eBay for a good price a few months ago while building out my 1:6 scale Star Wars lineup. I don’t think the larger scale Star Wars figures form ’97 and onward have the same charm as the late ’70s figures Kenner produced, I thought this was a pretty faithful representation of the Jedi Master.

The Action Collection Yoda didn’t come with a snake, but I found some cheap on the internet to make him feel more comfortable, like on his home planet Dagobah…

I picked up this larger Yoda to compliment some of my earlier ’78-’79 Kenner 12″ Star Wars figures, like Obi-Wan Kenobi. The Kenner Star Wars figures Kenner produced didn’t have quite the detailed paint that the ’97 Yoda has, but his scale is perfect and he’s an overall good fit with them.
