New TVC Wave Hitting Target on East Coast
We’ve read and have been receiving reports of the newest wave of Vintage Collection figures (Ahsoka, ARC Trooper Echo, Offworld Jawa) has started hitting Target including stores in Maryland, North Carolina and Florida. Let us know if you find them as well.

VC Numbering Revealed for The Ahsoka/Maul Wave (7)
Thanks to some in-hand packaging shots from a Facebook member, we now have the VC numbers for Wave 7 of the Vintage Collection. They breakdown as follow:
ARC Trooper Echo – VC176
Darth Maul (Mandalore) – VC201
Ahsoka Tano (Mandalore) – VC202
Offworld Jawa (Arvala-7) – VC203
It’s nice to have that 176 gap officially filled after the error of issuing the two Walmart Exclusive TVC figures – Din Djarin and The Child and the Incinerator Stormtrooper the VC177 designation. Now the question is: Who is VC200?

No Update on Walgreens Exclusive 6″ TBS 212th Battalion Clone Trooper
Collectors have been anxiously awaiting some sort of update on the official release/preorder of the Walgreens Exclusive 6″ Black Series 212th Battalion Clone Trooper announced last week. So here’s a “non-update” update: as of today, Walgreens still doesn’t have this in their system – neither online nor in-store.
If we use the last Walgreens exclusive as a guide, the 6″ Phase I Clone Trooper Lieutenant never went up for preorder either. It was leaked on August 18, 2020, officially announced on August 21, and then went online for purchase (not preorder) a month later on September 18. I wouldn’t be surprised if something similar happened for the new 212th Clone Trooper.
