Yakface/Hasbro QnA: Final for 2011

The Yakface/Hasbro QnA returns this week with the last set of answers for 2011. In this session we learn the details of the Vintage Jar Jar and the status of Grand Moff Tarkin.

Q1. At NYCC, you debuted the kid friendly “Movie Heroes” assortment of figures and in it you premiered the new Jar Jar figure. Will this be the same Jar Jar that will be re-carded and de-accessorized (for $1 more) in the Vintage line? Since the Vintage Jar Jar was mysteriously absent from the Hasbro booth at NYCC, can we get a nice high res sneak peek at the proposed Vintage carded version?

A1. The Jar Jar in the Vintage Collection will be an all new super-articulated figure and different from the figure in the Movie Heroes line..

Q2. Dear Hasbro , When are you going to finally put out Grand Moff Tarkin from A New Hope on a Vintage Card? That figure has been rumored to be on a vintage collection cardback for years since the vintage collection line started and we still haven’t gotten it yet. When can we expect to see its release and what accessories will he include? Will he be released in the 2012 Movie Heroes assortment as well? And since we’ve waited so long, how about an image of the carded figure????

A2. We agree that Grand Moff Tarkin is an excellent candidate for a carded Vintage Collection figure…expect more details at New York Toy Fair..
