Rumor Report: Target Exclusive TVC Droids Animated Series Figures

Leave a comment

Today, I received info on 3 new code names and from what I’m told they correlate to 3 upcoming Target Exclusive Lucasfilm 50th Anniversary Vintage Collection figures to commemorate the Star Wars Droids animated series. The 3 code names are as follows:
“Aquarius” – Boba Fett
“Pisces” – C-3PO
“Taurus” – R2-D2

It can be assumed that these will be redecos of existing molds and be carded on the TVC style card back with animated art from the cartoon used as the “film out” (like the Walmart Exclusive TVC Clone Wars figures). These figures retail for $15.99 each but it is unknown when they will be available for preorder or in-stores.

UPC, DPCI, TCIN info has been added to our Master List for these Droids figures

To clarify, these figures ARE NOT the “Periwinkle”, “Violet” and “Mauve” TVC figures we erroreously hinted at yesterday. These purple tinted codes tie to 3 different figures altogether. : )

Rumor Report: 3 Target Exclusive TVC Figures Coming Soon?

Leave a comment

A couple months ago, we reported on the discovery of an exclusive Vintage Collection figure listing at Target, code named “Periwinkle“. Additional searching has turned up two more with code names “Violet” and “Mauve“. All 3 of these have unique in-store DPCIs and retail for $13.99 each. There is currently no street date or expected arrival listed. I have heard rumblings of who these figures are but I am waiting for additional info to confirm them definitively. Stay tuned.

Rumor Report: Another Retro Item For This Year?

Leave a comment

It appears that there is at least one more Retro Collection item planned for this year. A search last night turned up results for an item called “SW RETRO BLACKBOARD” and it’s currently shipping to the U.S.. As you may recall, the recent Target exclusive Prototype Edition Boba Fett has the code name “SW RETRO CHALK” – it is unknown if this is a figure or other item like the previous games with a figure pack-in. Maybe we’ll hear about it tomorrow at Hasbro Fan First Wednesday.

Leave a comment

Until recently, the Target exclusive TVC Antoc Merrick’s X-wing Fighter was hidden behind the code name “Analog” as we exclusively reported last week. This change may indicate an imminent preorder launch – possibly for Target’s month-long Fall Geek-Out in September. Until then, you can bookmark this page as that is where this item will appear on Target.com

Update: The page is now live on Target.com
