TVC: Army Building in 2019
With the reemergence of The Vintage Collection, Hasbro has been knocking quite a few Imperial army builder figures out of the park. Retail availability is another story of course due to the Wave 1 logjam, but there’s no denying that many of the recent Imperial trooper figures are extremely impressive.
That being said, what are your army-building goals moving forward? How many of the TVC Rogue One Stormtrooper figures do you want for your collection? Will Hasbro come even close to meeting demand for that figure? Do you want to see figures like the Patrol Trooper and Mud Trooper scaled down in 3.75″ scale?

Update: Hasbro Celebration Chicago Exclusives Info
For those eager to get their hands on a set of the Celebration Exclusive Darth Maul and Obi-Wan, a bit of history. For Celebration Orlando (April 13-16, 2017), the Celebration Luke went on sale April 25 (9 days later, or two Tuesdays after the show). Tomorrow will be two Tuesdays after the close of Celebration Chicago. To be clear, I have no inside info on their pending release via HasbroPulse, but bookmarking this hidden page may be helpful.
update: A few people have said that Hasbro reps at SWCC said that these may go up for order on May 4. That would coincide with a couple other Hasbro releases planned for that day as well.
