A couple weeks ago, I posted 17 new code names corresponding to figures in the Vintage Collection. What I failed to notice at the time was that even though they all share the $14.99 pricepoint, there is a new DPCI (087-26-9848)* at Target for these as well. Normally when there is a DPCI change it correlates to a new product line/assortment but I have a sneaking suspicion these figures may all fall into the rumored plastic-free packaging design (PFP). I guess we’ll all have to wait for the official announcement to know for certain.
