Commentary: Timing is everything. This awesome IG-11 & Grogu with Speeder Bike set came out in August 2025. Their debut on The Mandalorian with this vehicle was December 27, 2019. To put that in perspective, it would be like if Kenner put out Ewok figures in 1989, when the line had been dead for four years. Could you imagine something awesome being on TV when you were in kindergarten, and then the toy didn't come out until you were almost done with the sixth grade? It's a shame this couldn't have been out for season two. Or three. But I'd say all of Epic World of Action and Epic Hero Series was a spectacular line defeated by some pretty horrible timing.

At least the toy is good.

While The Vintage Collection had an IG-12 with Grogu and an Anzellan for $25, Epic World of Action did a trade-off where $20-$22 (or under $10) could get you a whole Speeder Bike with Grogu and IG-11. Each item has its advantages, but a vehicle with a wheel for $20 and two figures strikes me as a really good deal. I feel like a jerk getting it on sale, but Amazon has had a proclivity to mark down their Hasbro exclusives in recent years and I hate overpaying for everything.

Grogu is more or less the same figure with the hover pram or the N-1 starfighter. He has glossy, painted fur trim around his collar and sleeves. Otherwise, he's the same basic figure you've already purchased. This makes him just different enough to make you mad. He is articulated at the neck and shoulders.

IG-11 is a whole new animal with an all-new mold, but like many of the Disney-era toys it appears to be derived from the same basic sculpt we got with other IG-11 toys. The fingers look a lot like The Vintage Collection claws, and it's sadly missing the bandolier vest piece. This feels like a notable absence, and I'd have traded the blasters or rocket launcher for it. Maybe kids wouldn't. The detail is quite good, and he has exceptional articulation for an Epic kiddo figure. Check out actual ball jointed shoulders, bend-and-swivel elbows, ball-jointed hips, and bend-and-swivel knees. If Hasbro gave us this level of articulation on a lower-priced The Vintage Collection figure, I would be pretty happy. The red shoulders look great, and the metallic coloring is good. The hands easily grip the pistols or bike handlebars. Hasbro did a real nice job here, minus the lack of ammo belt vest.

IGgy has no problems sitting on the bike with his feet on the pedals and his hands on the bars. His butt may hover slightly, but it works. You can plug the bag on the roll behind the seat, or on the side of the bike. The clear gray rocket launcher also plugs into the side. This bike has added "battle damage" detail too, making it visually different from the other releases thus far.

Compared to the 1996 $9.99 Power of the Force POTF2 Speeder Bike, this is an amazing toy. Adjusted for inflation, it's priced comparably with a second figure and more action features baked in the bike. You don't have the easily lost flaps or jointed legs, but I kind of prefer the rolling wheels and bumper car action. I would actually recommend the entire line to figure fans as it's not very big and shows what Hasbro can do with toys when they set their brand plan to it, and you know what? I'd like more of this sort of thing. I don't believe Hasbro will give it to us, but it just proves they're still very good at making actual toys when they are allowed.

Collector's Notes: I got mine from Amazon on sale for $6.25 around Black Friday. After Christmas it was under $9.
