A possible new Target exclusive has surfaced for the Vintage Collection code named “VILLA”. It is unknown what character it may be (another Boba Fett repaint would be a safe bet) or its expected release date.

Twitter follower Petty L. pointed out to me that the Target excluisve Retro Collection Luke Skywalker (Snowspeeder) Prototype Edition figure has received a price increase from $10.99 to $14.99. Maybe it was priced wrong from the start or it’s part of the recent price increases hitting the SW brand. Preorders at the original price should still be honored.
It’s been a few months since we’ve done one of these but here is a (another) list of approximately 90 outstanding preorders (U.S. only) accumulated so far for Vintage Collection, Retro Collection and Black Series items. If you’ve preordered (at least one of) everything, the list is substantial in length and price*.
Note: a couple of these items have been found at retail but for the most part, order fulfillment is still pending.

With today’s preorders, a new TVC case assortment was added containing the new Cassian Andor (Aldhani Mission) as well as a repack/carry forward of the upcoming Cal Kestis (Jedi Survivor) figure. Based on the code name and SKU for Cassian, I believe we can also slot Hunter (The Bad Batch) in this case as well.
As always, case assortments are subject to change.
New preorders are set for launch today at 1pm ET. Black Series Vel Sartha and Vintage Collection Cassian Andor (Aldhani Mission) are general releases and available through most retailers, including our sponsors/affiliates. The Black Series 40th Anniversary ROTJ Admiral Ackbar* is exclusive to Hasbro Pulse.
