Yakface reader @chisstufuh on Instagram was able to acquire the TVC Deluxe Sabine Wren figure earlier than expected from a Canadian outlet., and he has shared a few in-hand pics. Check them out, but be warned… that removable helmet is a doozy.

The latest wave of TVC figures (VC 106, VC 283, VC 284, VC 285) are starting to show up at various Target stores in the U.S. Your mileage may vary, as some stores have been getting in stock of older waves instead.
Good luck, and May the Force be with you on those toy runs!
During the Hasbro Star Wars panel and follow up discussions, it was revealed that Hasbro plans for several “repacks/retools” in TVC, including the TBS/TVC Rogue One Cassian Andor figure again (but with the added touch of photo real deco).
Personal Note: If Hasbro has the need to put this figure out again, it may be better suited for a 3pk, and they can invest in new tooling in the other figures in the set, such as Baze Malbus and Ruescott Melshi. Or, are you happy with just swapping a VC262 Cassian head onto the older figure and would rather Hasbro avoid this figure altogether? What say you?
Next week, a more controversial repack topic… TFA Finn.
If you have a Target in your area, it might be a good time to check the toy aisles and see what kind of clearance deals you might find. A lot of TBS and Marvel Legends are ringing up at deep discounts, and the savings are not limited to these particular items. Your experiences will vary of course, but check out the gallery for a few more images of items marked down along with the associated prices. Happy hunting!
Target is running a hefty sale through March 4 on most Black Series figures. If you’ve been waiting for markdowns on the items included in the sale, now might be the time to grab them before they get gobbled up by clearance buyers later.

Just in time for the new year, we were able to acquire some of the newest TVC wave, and these figures are outstanding to say the least.
We have a few quick pics to share of Cassian and Vel – check them out, and as an added bonus for loose collectors, the Cassian head can easily be swapped out with his Rogue One figure with ease.
Since Hasbro officially revealed the upcoming TVC Endor Bunker playset, collectors have been posting a lot of questions. This video should help clear some of these up.
If you have a Gamestop in your neck of the woods, it might be worth your while to swing by and check out their clearance section – all clearance items are currently marked off 50% off the clearance sticker price.
Personal Note: In my finds, very new TBS are not included, nor are most TVC. But there were decent selections of various 6 inch figures and lots of oddball gift type items, stacks of Funko POPs, etc. An employee grumbled when talking to me tonight, and said they had just received 6 more huge boxes of clearance items from their warehouse that he had nowhere to display, and they needed to move a lot more by Christmas. It might be bit concerning by just how much unsold collectibles product Gamestop could be sitting on right now.
