Ponda Baba Figure (Star Wars) - Power of the Force, 1997 Action Figure Star Wars...


Ponda Baba (Star Wars) Action Figure: Overview

Of all the Power of the Force Cantina action figures Ponda Baba (AKA Walrus Man) is amongst the best. He looks fairly accurate to the film, his proportions are good and the removable jacket is detailed, well-fitted and very in keeping with the feel of A New Hope costumes. Where so many of the other early Power of the Force actions figures were just plain wrong, Ponda Baba stands out as a really good action figure. In fact, with the exception of better accessories, enhanced articulation and a touch up of the paintwork, the next three Ponda Babas released didn't really diverge much from this figure and it wasn't until 2011 that a distinctly different and superior Ponda Baba figure was released as part of the Vintage Collection.

Ponda Baba looks much more formidible than his rather ridiculous looking Kenner predecessor Walrus Man figure with his flipper feet.

Other Power of the Force Action Figures




All Star Wars action figures, vehicles, collectibles and Star Wars toys shown on this website are the 3.75 inch scale and from my own private Star Wars collection unless otherwise stated. Where possible original vintage accessories have been used but in some instances I have placed Kenner Star Wars figures with either reproduction weapons and accessories or for Hasbro figures close approximations have been used. This is mostly the case for modern Star Wars lightsabers where the correct item can be very difficult to identify on some ocassions. Vintage Star Wars action figures are shown with their original weapon or accessory when I have them. When a vintage Kenner action figure is shown with an accessory which is not original I have tried to point this out where possible.

All of the Star Wars action figures shown were purchased second hand, usually incomplete, and in bulk. They have been reunited with their original weapons and accessories where we could get hold of them.
