Black Major Toys 2017 Tiger Force Starduster Review

I’m feeling a bit nostalgic, so I’ve dug in the crates for this old review, as I came across the figure today while cleaning and remembered how much fun I had with this offering.

I’m throwing together a smidge of Tiger Force, with a dash of #TBT and a sprinkle of #BlackMajorMonday for a review of the 2017 Tiger Force Starduster figure originally served up by my friends at Evolving Door Toys!

Tiger Force Starduster is one of many figures that lead me back down the boutique figure offering path back in 2017. Now, to clear up a common misconception – As noted above, although these were produced by Black Major, they were actually distributed by Evolving Door Toys.

Without further adieu, let’s check out this awesome figure!

Starduster is one of those figures that you would think would’ve gotten a repaint somewhere along the line, even though he himself was just a re-release of earlier used parts. That said, the Tiger Force deco fits the character and mold/part choice well, as the combination of black, yellow and brown just pop and make the figure really attractive. This Starduster is based on the “B” version build, sporting Duke’s torso, Roadblock’s legs, Recondo’s waist and Flint’s arms. The silver highlights on his chest really stand out against the contrast of the all black shirt.

As with the original, vintage Starduster, this Tiger Force rendition includes a silver grenade launcher, a yellow helmet with black visor & black star and a blue Jetpack. What’s interesting to note is that the Black Major Stardusters also included the Laser accessory that came with the original JUMP set. The color combination here is perfect, as the silver of the grenade launcher and rich blue of the jetpack play well with Starduster’s Tiger Force paint scheme.
