@5017set is back with more 2027 rumors – this time for the Vintage Collection. It’s not too big a leap that we’d see some reissues of main characters like Vader and Stormtroopers for the 50th anniversary of the franchise, but we may also see a release of “the man” himself to fill a special spot in our collections. (And there’s also Space Gosling from Starfighter).
