Live. Die. Repeat. That is the tag line of another franchise, but it’s sadly applicable to today’s mediocre fanstream of retools, repacks, refreshes, or what ever other corpo jargon you’d like to employ here. There were a couple bright spots but with ten preorder annoucements, including only one all new item, this was a weak first fanstream for 2024

Recent shipping data shows that the fan channel wave of Vintage Collection figures including Count Dooku, Finn, Cassian Andor and Phase I Clone Trooper is now arriving in the U.S.
Steve Evans (MrStevie18) has rejoined the Hasbro Star Wars brand team for 2024 and one of his first public contributions is the creation of this great 11″x17″ Retro Collection poster/checklist reminiscent of the original Kenner card backs. It is available for high-res download at his site.
My poking about the interweb continues with the possibility of as many as 6 TVC figure preorders for January 24th’s figure drop. As always, info isn’t official until Hasbro says so and the number of TVC preorder numbers may change before then.
Without fail, when I post a rumor report regarding one scale or the other, the comments (on social media) turn into an “us versus them” situation in terms of what scale is more heavily favored by Hasbro. Interestingly, I took a look at my rumor list of TVC and TBS code names for 2024 products and you’d probably be (pleasantly?) surprised to hear that I’ve been able to find approximately 30 code names for EACH line. Granted, that’s only what I’ve personally been able to find info for, but as it stands, that’s pretty f’ing balanced.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled slap fight.

Additional digging this morning has turned up a new Retro Collection code name “Odysseus” which corresponds to an as-of-yet unannounced 6pk.. The dimensions of this item (in terms of packaging) and price are the same as the other 6pks released previously. We know that The Phantom Menance 6pk has the code name “Diomedes” so could this be a set to represent Attack of the Clones based on its Greek-themed code name? I’ll continue to search for more info and update when possible.
