Rumor Report: 5 New TVC Figure Listings Found Via Walmart app
Yesterday, I teased the reveal of a bit of forthcoming Vintage Collection (TVC) news and now that I’ve some time, here it is. Five new TVC listings have turned up in Walmart’s system* . Interestingly, a new code naming theme has been introduced with this wave with the names of oceans. “Atlantic”, “Pacific”, “Indian”, and “Arctic”. The fifth name looks familiar as the “Omega” name (from The Mandalorian) has turned up in our prior Black Series rumor report. It’s a pretty safe bet that they are the same character, the question is, who is it?
*Note: these are NOT Walmart exclusives.
Rumor Report: Convention Exclusive Clone Trooper Set
Fellow product sleuther, JTPrime has found evidence of an upcoming exclusive Hasbro Clone Trooper pack currently en route to the U.S. Like previous convention exclusives*, they are initially available at shows like SDCC but also available through Hasbro Pulse. It is unclear what scale this is, but I’d bet on this being a Black Series item.
As for Vintage (TVC) product news, stay tuned.
*Obviously, there are no conventions planned in the short term so these will likely go directly to online sales.
