After reorganising my Star Wars studio room, I had the opportunity to display some of my favourite collectibles that needed a safe and protected space. To celebrate my favourite Star Wars characters, I put together a Women Of The Star Wars Saga display area, to showcase some of my most treasured collectibles in a spot where I can see them everyday.

Checkout this video of my new Star Wars display –

This is of course not all of my Rey, Amidala, and Leia collectibles, but this display includes some of the largest/heaviest pieces, and ones that really need a secure display space away from sunlight and excess dust. The sturdy drawers provided a great platform for heavy pieces like premium format statues, and they are all now in a room that has blocked out windows to protect from sun damage – a concern of mine, especially with pieces with fabric details.

This ARTFX Jaina Solo figure by Kotobukiya was the first of a new Bishoujo collection. It was originally released at the very end of 2012, depicting Jaina Solo in her X-Wing flight suit with helmet and lightsaber.

The figure comes with a clear base, with a Rebel Alliance symbol insert, which shows through the base. The Bishoujo figures come in pre-painted parts, which snap together – though I found this figure has a few tricky parts – the lightsaber is balanced on her figure via a very small peg, and the weight of the helmet has a tendency to ‘pull’ the left hand off from the arm (I should just glue it at some point).

Sadly, there were only two Star Wars Bishoujo figures – Jaina Solo (2012) and Mara Jade (2014) – and I own both. I would have loved to have seen the line continue, but I’m very happy to have this lovely statue in my collection.
