Hasbro added a little feature to the TVC Tantive IV playset that is easy to overlook… an envelope containing ten (10) removable foot pegs is included.
The envelope is not very obvious, so make sure you look for it before disposing of any packaging. There are also slots under the floor panel to store them.
Collectors can now pose their figures in dynamic poses without interfering with the overall aesthetics of the set. Thank you to our readers / forum members for calling this out.
JediInsider is reporting a rumor regarding the addition of Ponda Baba and Dr. Evazon to the Black Series line sometime in 2021. Head on over for their scoop.
Walmart is sending out mass cancellation notices for to those who preordered the exclusive TVC Din Djarin with The Child set. No word on how or if this will be remedied.
The other day, I teased on Instagram regarding new Legends figures coming to the Black Series line in 2021 and today I heard again about the possibility of Jaxxon being made for the line as well as 3 additional characters that were originally created pre-acquisition of Lucasfilm by Disney and should all be fan channel exclusives. Some interesting choices for sure but this one was the most surprising.
Update: It appears Jaxxon was rumored on JediInsider back on Dec. 24.
Last night I was able to find a little bit of time to open up a couple of the new TVC Tantive IV playsets and combine them.
Overall, I like it but I do feel that Hasbro could have put a little more effort in here. It’s not the quality of the GTP Space Walls lineup, but it’s still a worthwhile purchase in my opinion and Hasbro continues to take steps in the right direction.
Head on over to the forums for some additional details and a closer look after the jump!
