Toyguide Update: VC26 Rebel Commando
The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the Rebel Commando from the 2011 Vintage Collection’s Return of the Jedi wave (Wave 3).
PROS: This latest attempt at an Endor Rebel Solider (aka Rebel Commando) shines above all others. Well accessorized and articulated making it another “must-have” figure from the Vintage line. Easily removable accessories make customizing and variant creation possible with minimal effort – you’ll want/need more than one of these guys for your Endor Strike Team.
CONS: Odd forward-tilting angle of the neck post sculpt force the figure to look in a downward direction.
Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.

TVC Wave 7 Shipping and “Revenge” Wave Delayed ’til Oct
Our pal Adam Pawlus over at Galactic Hunter and Entertainment Earth has posted updated shipping info regarding The Vintage Collection’s Wave 7 and the now delayed wave 8. TVC Wave 7 (the RFT, Logray, Fordo etc. wave) is now shipping from most online retailers, but it looks as if wave 8 and its revision case, which both include the Revenge of the Jedi recard figures, has been pushed back until October. Question is, what does that mean for the SDCC exclusive Revenge of the Jedi Mega Set?
Clones, Clones, and more Clones

Head on over for loose images of Commander “Blackout”, Clone Trooper “Scythe” as well as shots of ARC Trooper “Blitz” and Clone Trooper “Kix” from the Defend Kamino and The Hunt for Grievous Battle Packs.
And Now… Matters are Worse
There is another. Yep, Hasbro, in its quest to drive the last bit of fun from collecting has thrown another curveball into the mix by giving the TVC Wedge Antilles a variant card back! Click on through for more…

Toyguide Update: VC28 Wedge Antilles
The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of Wedge Antilles from the 2011 Vintage Collection’s Return of the Jedi wave (Wave 3) case revision 11.
PROS: Finally, Wedge receives a basic (non-exclusive) carded release. Likeness is above average and looks great on the Vintage-style card back.
CONS: It’s hard to believe we waited so long for Wedge considering there is nothing “new” here other than the head. The helmet is very snug on the figure’s head when worn so the head may come off the post when trying to remove the helmet. The limited availability of the Vintage Collection may hamper the ability to find this figure which is sending secondary market prices for this latest version of Wedge to ridiculous heights.
