Written by the company

Star Action Figures is one of the UK's leading independent retailers of action figures and collectables, supplying customers since 2001. We specialise in Star Wars, Marvel, Transformers, GI Joe and many other major brands, offering competitive pricing, fast delivery and decades of collector experience. Every order is packed under CCTV with full time-stamped dispatch verification. This protects our customers, protects our staff and ensures orders leave exactly as they should. When a genuine issue occurs, we resolve it quickly and professionally. We also operate in a niche where collectables attract a small number of bad-faith claims. Nearly all of our one-star reviews follow the same pattern - no supporting evidence, requests for partial refunds or compensation outside our policies or claims that conflict with the clear dispatch and delivery records we retain. We reply with the factual context so readers can see the full picture. The vast majority of our customers are honest collectors who simply want good service, fair prices and reliable fulfilment - and that is exactly what we provide. Our aim is straightforward: deliver the products people want, deliver them properly and stand by the evidence when disputes arise.

Star Action Figures Offer An Exceptional Service

Star Action Figures is now the only place I buy collectable action figures for my MOC/MIP collection.

I first bought figures from this company approx 11 years ago and every order has always been perfect.

Star Action Figures mentions on the product listing if the item condition is not excellent.

Packaging is excellent in strong boxes.

Dispatch is quick.

Thank you Wayne, you deserve every success.

Handling my growing numbers of orders highly professionally

I very rarely leave Trust Pilot reviews but wanted to add my voice to those who've been delighted with Star Action.

I've always found their handling of my orders to be great and found them helpful when I have any queries.

A good example was that postage has been all over the place of late. I emailed (and I am sure I am one of far too many) and they were nothing but polite and professional.

Star have become a reliable go to for figures for me. Great company.

Fantastic figures and where to find them

I recently bought a Hot Toys Newt Scamander. I’m not a collector so I was thoroughly impressed with how quickly it was processed and packaged. The figure itself is fantastic and in pristine condition. Thanks Star Action Figures!

This site is a lifesaver!!!

I'm always wary of using websites like this. You never know what your really going to get in terms of quality, or whether the product is legitimate.

Quite a relief to say (after spending £100 on avengers figures) to say that the company for my first and only use so far has been great.

You never know what your going to get with delivery times but I received a double order of 12 figures within 5 working days and I was more than happy with that (free delivery over £50).

Packaging was secure and figures were pristine. And when needing to contact them I got an email back within about 2 hours.....so can't say fairer than that!

Thank you Star Action Figures......the shops are useless for buying the rarer figures and normally they are more expensive too

My 4 year old is going to be chuffed come Christmas!

Best action figure company

I have had figures off this company for several years
They have always been very helpful
I know their items will always arrive in good condition in sturdy boxes and good interior packaging
I have on occasions ordered from different companies whose packaging has been horrendous
I know if i order from this company the item will arrive in excellent condition
I give this company 10 out of 10 in all aspects

Long time customer

Been using star action figures for a good few years now and they are my first port of call when buying online. I’ve had to cancel a few pre orders along the way and always had a polite message back to confirm cancellations. I have more pre orders and it’s great to know that my items will arrive in as mint condition as mass produced toys can be.

Foul Company - Contempt beyond words!

This is the reply I received from this company, for their poor service, terrible attidude for their mistake!

****Reply from Staractionfigures

9 Aug 2022
The pattern continues.

My response - What Pattern?

One order placed this year! Two single figure orders since the new site went live April 2021.

My response - So because I have only ordered two figures from you I shouldn't be afforded any consideration or courtesy as a customer, my business is that worthless to you? - Really?

Is that how you view all of your customers that aren’t prolific spenders with you? - they are all treated and judged by how much they order from you???

One order has "issues"

My response - My order had a single 'Issue" - the box was damaged and not suitable for display, this was down to your shoddy working practices and failure to ensure the figure was in good shape before it was packed for shipping!

One Star Review because we will not pay to return unwanted item.

My response - That is an absolute Lie! - I asked to return the item because it was damaged NOT because it was unwanted!

I wasn’t even offered a replacement!, even though they were still showing as in stock!

Furthermore not only was it damaged - it was damaged before it was even sent to me and not checked by you! I gave you the review you deserved for this transaction, your service and attitude were disgusting, as clearly demonstrated by your utterly contemptuous response to my review!

If only we paid for every tiny flaw on these mass produced toy products to be returned at our cost, we probably would only have one or two one star reviews..... but obviously no business as well as it would have gone bankrupt long ago.

My response - First of all the damage to my item wasn't 'Tiny'(sic)

This comment again proves and shows your absolute contempt and total failure to understand what a collector needs and cherishes!

Most (not all) expect items to be in excellent and undamaged condition, the boxes are as important as whats inside them! You are absolutely right to say that you can't refund people who simply change their mind or return someting they opened or damaged. But when the damage has not been caused by the purchaser and it has been sent out in poor condition from the get go, you SHOULD do the right thing and admit your error - and at least offer to replace the item or cover the customers return postage costs, as its through NO FAULT of their own that your mistake should cost them?

As I say the pattern continues. So many one star reviews from these types of one off customers.

My response - 'These Types Of One Off Customers"(sic)!!! - Really?

What does that even mean???

I’m sure many of your ‘One Off’(sic) customers and potential customers would like for you to clarify your comment on how you view them?

For your information, I’m a decent bloke, keen collector and I enjoy my hobby, just like many others. I wasn’t trying to be clever, I wasn’t making an unreasonable request for you to cover my out of pocket expenses for your error, I simply asked you to make good as it was in no way my fault that you sent me a damaged item, an item that wasn’t damaged in transit, an item that was clearly damaged before it was sent!

Then too say that the damage should be expected as its normal for you to receive them damaged from your source, is just plain ridiculous and yet another fob off attempt of avoiding taking responsibility.

A huge majority of collectors see packaging as just as integral to whats inside the package, its one of the most basic and fundamental expectations of a collector!, purchase a new figure/item etc - and the packaging will be perfect too, or as near as it can be without anything untoward being visible!

What a disgraceful attitude to take and if I may, perhaps if your service was on point, you'd have more business from 'One Off Customers' turning them into loyal customers who know they’ll be looked after by Star Action Figures in the event of something going wrong!

Its so nice to see and hear the contempt of how you clearly feel about customers who don't or can't buy more from you, we are clearly not worthy of your time, but you’re happy to take our money and balls to us if theres a mistake on your part!

Maybe we should just charge £5 to leave a 1 star reviews. It would save everyone time and effort and cut out all the condescending emails!

My response - No condescending emails here - just the truth of how badly and poorly you treat individuals who are out of pocket because of your ridiculous attitude and terrible service!

Your contempt and attitude defies belief.

Two reviews for one order?

I suppose that is allowed on Trustpilot.? Message to trust pilot, this individual even admits in this second review he has only had one issue.

A bit pathetic isn't it?

Anyone reading this, check out his reviews. 3 in total at time of writing, and 2 of them are the same order against us, because his boxed was not and I quote his email "in A1 condition".

Maybe leave a 3rd and a 4th if this is how you get your kicks. Most people are intelligent enough to edit their original order if they want to reply..... most people.

Just as well we have thousands of repeat customers, and 100s of 5 star reviews on here, and as I say just a few pathetic individuals who think they will do us harm posting the nonsense you post.

I agree though. We have very few one off customers. Because most of the time when someone uses us for the first time, they come back over and over again, so are no longer a one off customer.

UNlike you of course, who I suspect was going to leave a 1 star review no matter what. As I said, it probably be easier and not waste everyone's time if we just charged a fiver for muppets to leave a 1 star reviews, rather than get them to go through the hassle of placing their sole order of the year to be able to leave their review.

We fully understand what the customer wants which is why we are the UK's number one seller of Star Wars figures. As much as annoys people like you, we are the UKs number one.

What you fail to understand is these are toys mass produced by a toy company, and hardly anything will be in A1 condition. All Mass produced cards and boxes will have slight blemishes if you look hard enough.

People who repeatedly use us, know we use the best packaging materials available and have the highest standards, but you have sunk to a new low by leaving TWO REVIEWS on one order.

We often make errors. It hard not to when we send thousands of orders out a week. And we will admit to them, and do what ever we need to do to correct the issue.

But as you know, no error was made here. We was beaten the moment you completed the order.

But as I said before, take away the "one order wonders" where we will not pay return shipping for an undamaged figure, and we are nearly 100%.

Which is why we are so popular.

Make you feel good did it leaving two reviews?

Had a laugh have you?

As I say, pathetic beyond words.

I apologise to the next store this "one order wonder" moves onto next. You won't please him, and he will have a problem no matter what you do.

But we are often told by customers how the enjoy these replies to these sad pathetic lone order reviewers.

So keep em coming!

Maybe whoever is next they'll be lucky and get three reviews from him!

*********EDIT TO ANSWER HIS EDIT************ (although well done you for editing your review, and not leaving a third, see you can still learn)

I do not feel contempt towards customers because what they can buy, you are now trying to sound like a victim (Karen) and making things up to suit your agenda. As I said before, pathetic.

Luckily there are numerous 5 star reviews to show you up for what you are, and prove your review is vindictive, and if there is any doubt to that, you have left TWO REVIEWS for one order. Proves my point nicely. You are a vindictive individual. That proof is there for all to see. You said you had one issue, but left two reviews. Vindictive.

To clarify what I mean by "one order wonders" (as if I really need to), that only applies to 90% of the negative reviews on here. Most are left by people like yourself who only place one order. It is as if you are just making the order, just so you can leave a review, hence it would be easier and cheaper for everyone to charge you £5 to do it.

But towards you, I have nothing but contempt.

Awaits 1* review number 3!

i could write a review every time …

i could write a review every time i get a flawless delivery from Saf, but honestly that would bore the bejesus out of me, so here is my second delivery misadventure from this company. For some unknown reason royal mail sent my parcel from Gatwick back to SAF hq instead of my own humble abode. contacting royal mail (an arduous task to even find a means of contact) this was confirmed to me and in contacting SAF a few quick emails to a helpful ''Olly?'' it was sent back out post haste. Many thanks to your team for al your hard work and keeping my walls coated in plastic

I have been using SAF for a long time for figures across various lines.
The team are amazing and they update customers via their FB page with up coming deliveries etc.
Don't listen to people who bad mouth this store over "damaged" boxes. SAF are actually talking to companies like Hasbro about their subpar packaging. SAF is on the collectors side!!
