Retro Rumor Report: New Unknown 6pk Code Name Found

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.

TVC Rumor Report: New Unknown Playset or Vehicle Code Name Found

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

TBS Rumor Report Update 2: Carbonized TBS Ahsoka & HK-87 2pk

Recent shipping data for the rumored Amazon exclusive Black Series Ahsoka and HK-87 2pk has been updated to remove “Carbonized” from its code name, hopefully making these “gimmick-free” figures. I’d expect/hope the HK87 droid in this set to include better deco and the accurate staff missing from the standard release.

Update: no such luck, they are Carbonized with no extras 🙁

TBS Rumor Report: Starkiller (Vader’s Apprentice)

It has been almost a year since we first heard about a potential Black Series Starkiller but it sounds like we can expect an official announcement soon (SDCC). Starkiller (Vader’s Apprentice) fron The Force Unleashed will be the next Gaming Greats figure in the line after General Grievous (Battle Damaged) and, like Cal Kestis, Darth Malak, Bastila Shan, should be a mainline release and in the window packaging.

TVC Rumor Report: 6 New Code Names Uncovered

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.
