In Demand Toys has posted one of the Convention Exclusives planned for this year on Facebook. The Vintage Collection The Rescue Set features the Dark Trooper, The Mandalorian, Grogu and Moff Gideon — all of which have new accessories and to differentiate them from previous releases. No price is listed yet but look for this to be available for preorder exclusively at Hasbro Pulse as part of their SDCC reveals.
Above you can see several examples of apparent QC issues with the new Deluxe TVC Boba Fett (Tatooine) figure. From shoddy paint apps to poor assembly to various states of limb loss, paying the exorbitant MSRP for this figure should warrant a better world-building experience.
Amazon has started to ship new figures including TVC Reva (Third Sister), TVC Obi-Wan Kenobi (Wandering Jedi), TVC Anakin Skywalker (Padawan), TBS Princess Leia (Ewok Village) and more. Check the status of your preorders for any revised ship dates for these figures and more.
Beginning at 1pm ET today, you can preorder the 6″ Black Series Obi-Wan Kenobi (Jabiim) figure from Obi-Wan Kenobi. Thank you in advance for your continued support of our sponsors and affiliates.

A couple weeks ago, I posted 17 new code names corresponding to figures in the Vintage Collection. What I failed to notice at the time was that even though they all share the $14.99 pricepoint, there is a new DPCI (087-26-9848)* at Target for these as well. Normally when there is a DPCI change it correlates to a new product line/assortment but I have a sneaking suspicion these figures may all fall into the rumored plastic-free packaging design (PFP). I guess we’ll all have to wait for the official announcement to know for certain.
*Current DPCI for mainline TVC is 087-16-6045
