VC23 Luke Variation #327

Joining the never-ending crop of variants from the Vintage Collection (half of them seem to spawn from this Luke figure alone), Jedi Temple Archives is reporting that Hasbro has finally corrected the missing “chrome” gradient in the name pill for the Luke Skywalker (Endor Capture) first present on the “Jedi Knight Outfit” cardback from wave 3.

Clone Trooper “Gearshift” Revealed

Rumors are circulating today of a couple new Clone Wars two-packs themed around the “Brain Invaders” and “Legacy of Terror” episodes of the Clone Wars. A quick eBay search has revealed that a new 212th Clone Trooper is probably one of the figures slated for one of these sets – joining Clone Trooper “Scythe” in the other. As you can see this particular clone trooper features an updated helmet sculpt that incorporates the headlamps onto each side. A quick scouring of Wookieepedia reveals that this trooper is “Gearshift“.

Head to the eBay auction for more images or bid and be sure to check out this seller’s other items as well as he has a couple other new figures as well.
