For a few weeks now we’ve been adding code names and products to our Master List and have continued to run across new product names for a Hasbro line called “Action Verse/ActionVerse“. It is unclear if this is another rebrand of the Epic World of Action (previously Epic Hero Series) or a new iteration of the 4″ scale. The pricing does seem to parallel the “Epic” lines and the character selection and types of products also seem very similar. There are Basic Figures ($9.99). Deluxe Figures ($14.99), Vehicles ($19.99) and Multipacks ($34.99).
Among the character names I’ve added, I have also included a listing for an AT-RT ($29.99) which I surmise is probably from The Mandalorian & Grogu movie next year.
25 for ‘25: No official TVC news today, but unofficially, I have added 25 new code names recently to our MASTER LIST. This should give at least some indication of what’s to come as far as the number of releases to expect in the new year. (It will like be higher than this number barring any product cancellations.)
Recent shipping data shows that there is some sort of convention exclusive figure/pack arriving in the U.S.. It is currently unknown what “Con Ex 4” includes but it does confirm the existence of one of our rumored items on our Master List. While this may be an exclusive for a future event like SDCC, it could also simply be something for Hasbro Pulse, similar to the Black Series Super Battle Droid & C-3PO/Battle Droid 2pk as that set had the code name of “Conv Excl 1”. Maybe this is something that will be announced Friday at the May 3rd Fanstream?
Stay tuned for additional updates as we learn more.
Recent shipping data confirms the exlstence of a rumored item “Cube” on our Master List of Black Series products for 2024. This yet-to-be-announced or pipelined exclusive item looks to be part of the ongoing series of 2 packs based on its price of $44.99. Some quick checking through my list of products shows this with a release date of June 1 so a preorder may be imminent. As always, this is only a rumor until Hasbro announces and confirms. Price and date of release subject to change.
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.

Doing some digging this morning, I was able to find a new Vintage Collection code name “Declan” which corresponds to an as-of-yet unannounced playset or vehicle. The dimension of this item (in terms of packaging) seems to be close to previous playsets like the Tantive IV and Carbon Freezing Chamber. If it is a vehicle, the size would most closely correlate to the Imperial Troop Transport. I’ll continue to search the streets for more info and update when possible.
Update: Price is set at $59.99 so I’m going to assume this is a playset
Been a while, huh? Today I came across a new codename for a 2024 Vintage Collection item “CROSSWALK” that looks to be another deluxe figure. It is priced similarily to the other recent deluxe offerings at $24.99, so it could be fan channel and/or mainline. Hopefully it has a been value than Jango. More details for this and other Vintage Collection items (not just figures) I’m hearing about start to surface soon.
I’ve updated the master list to include this new find and look for more updates soon.
We’ve updated our running list of upcoming and rumored products slated to hit stores and online throughout 2024. We’ve purged many of the released 2023 items from the list, but they can still be found here for your reference. (This old list will not be maintained).
Today we’ve added a few new Vintage Collection code names to our Master List. These 10 look to be spilt across 3 waves, based on their released dates in 2024 (unless some of them are exclusive).
Vintage Collection rumor news has been light as of late but hopefully that will start to change as we approach SDCC and other summer/fall conventions. Today, I was able to acquire some new TVC code names that will likely be for some product set for sometime in 2024. At this time, I’m not sure if they are part of the same wave but they should all be mainline releases. These 6 names have been added to our Master List and once I have more info to share, I will do so.
