It appears that the popularity of the Carbonized figures from the Black Series prompted their return in 2020. Some research has uncovered info for a Carbonized Boba Fett as well as a Stormtrooper. This was also reiterated to us via an unsolicited Tweet from follower Niall Davids. His tweet also mentioned the possibility of a 6″ scale Snowspeeder with Dak? Now that is interesting….
This coming weekend, Hasbro will be having their annual off-site presentation for Toy Fair 2020 in New York. Things have been quiet on the rumor front for the Vintage Collection for a while but hopefully we get official confirmations of some past and newly rumored items for the line. Recently, a Nebraska specialty retailer leaked word of possible update to the previous Amazon exclusive TVC Slave I, there’s also the long-standing rumor of a certain Bespin playset in the cards for 2020. A little Bothan told me that we may even see the reveal of 6 “new” TVC figures that represent characters from The Clone Wars, Rogue One, A New Hope and Return of the Jedi. These rumored figures are a mix of all new sculpts, repaints as well as repacks of recently released figures.
