Yakface Forum members have just wrapped up another Customizing Challenge… this was the 80th one now!
The theme was Entertainers, and we had some very creative and interesting submissions… be sure to check them out, and see who is walking away with some TVC prizes after the jump!
I think most of us would agree that hunting for TVC at retail is almost always a complete waste of time and has been for quite a while. There are of course ways to somewhat easily acquire new figures online however, or even through online marketplaces like Mercari (which I am now addicted to).
Today, I had an unexpected surprise by scoring a trio of TVC Shadow Stormtroopers at a local collector shop basically for standard retail… sure the figure is just a repaint, but it’s better than staring at empty pegs. It actually made my day to upgrade my Shadow Stormtroopers finally, and the cardback looks awesome too.
