I recently received a wonderful care package from GonkToys showcasing their assortment of high-quality acrylic products for displaying Hasbro/Kenner Star Wars collectibles. Today, I going to give my impressions on their acrylic display case for 6×9 carded figures.
Continue reading Review: GonkToys Acrylic Action Figure Display CasesOver the weekend, I joined Tim from Bossk’s Bounty and Tyler from SWTVC to discuss the Vintage Collection – where it is and where we think it’s going. Give it a watch and follow both Bossk’s Bounty and SWTVC via their social channels for passion Star Wars content focusing on the 3.75″/Vintage Collection scale.
Bothan spies also send word that Amazon will be offering exclusive Kenner deco variants (Like the SDCC Boba Fett, Zuckuss and 4-LOM) of the 6″ Black Series Greedo, Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi and Jawa as part of the 50th Anniverary of Lucasfilm program.
The code names for Ben and Jawa correlate to the recent list we published and are “Kung Fu” and “Judo” respectively.
Walmart is sending out mass cancellation notices for to those who preordered the exclusive TVC Din Djarin with The Child set. No word on how or if this will be remedied.
In a small town off the interstate in southern Minnesota you may see a sight rarely seen at many metropolitan stores. Peg after peg of new TVC figures waiting to be liberated from their cardboard and plastic prison. I envision taking a roadtrip tonight.
PS: Hey Walmart, fix your distribution.

Target is now sending shipping notifications for new TVC figure preorders including The Mandalorian (Beskar Armor), Moff Gideon and The Armorer.
Thanks to DarthChuckMc for the alert.
Twitter follower Alex Z. reports finding part of the newest (and last for 2020) wave of TVC at his Target store (Green Valley/Horizon Ridge – Henderson, NV). Acquisitions included The Mandalorian (Beskar), Moff Gideon, and The Armorer.
This is the way.
As mentioned on Hasbro’s last Fan First Friday, they’ve gone back and tweaked the cardback for the upcoming TVC Boba Fett (ROTJ) figure to more closely match the original Kenner release. The accent color has been adjusted to yellow and the reference photo has been zoom out for a “better” look at the character. The first orange version (left above) will be available initially then replaced as a running change.
