Missing the Mark: TVC Darth Vader’s TIE Advanced Missing Sticker

TVC Darth Vader TIE Advanced are arriving to collectors and sadly, they neglected to include a sticker for the targeting computer as shown on the packaging and solicitation images. “I have you now” though as I took some quick measurements and put together one for you to download. Simply print out the attached image on sticker/label paper – the final trim size (gray line) should be 12mm x 7mm.

Whether intentional or accidental, it’s sad that a $139.99 priced vehicle is missing such detail.

Last Figure Standing: Round 1 – Vote for Up To 6

From this list of twelve, you can pick up to six characters to advance to the next round. The top six vote getters will move on to round two, with the bottom six getting eliminated. This is our biggest cut down round, so it’s critical to get your votes in.

Voting for round one closes on Wednesday October 22nd at 12 AM PT. Remember that this year we’re cutting down on the livestreams. The round two results will be revealed on our socials and various outlets on Friday, October 24th.

Walmarts in my area have also started to adjust their prices too by way of those digital price tags. Convenient!

What Would You Like MTO?

The Marvel Legends team has had a fair amount of success with MTO (made to order) items that fall outside of the Haslab model – Dragon Man, Mephisto, and the recently announced Apocalypse to name a few. The Star Wars brand really hasn’t explored this concept to that extent. Question is, what would you like to see offered as an MTO item for the Vintage Collection, Black Series, and/or Retro Collection lines?
