In case you missed my post on social media over the weekend regarding SDCC news and coverage, I’m taking a step back from around the clock duties on Yakface and its social channels to focus on my mental health surrounding this hobby/Hasbro. I fear that if I allow myself to continue with this bitter attitude that has been festering for a while now regarding Hasbro in general, I’ll rage quit altogether. I’m not ready for that. Yet.

A heartfelt thanks for your continued support by using our affiliate links.

Some TVC collectors were understandably disappointed by Hasbro’s overall TVC showing at SDCC this year (the only thing that saved it for me was the reveal of the INT-4 Interceptor).

However, The Imperial Communique posted a great Q&A with the Hasbro team over this weekend at SDCC definitely worth watching.

Looking ahead to 2027, Hasbro pointed out a renewed focus toward world-building for TVC. They also indicated plans to “catch up” on characters tied to past Haslab projects. For example, an upcoming TVC “Ghost Multipack” is specifically mentioned about midway through the interview.

If this is indeed the plan, what say you? Would a TVC focus on rounding out characters associated with past Haslab items be what you have in mind for the 50th anniversary of the film that started it all?

Yesterday Hasbro announced another repaint of the X-wing Fighter mold for the Vintage Collection, this time with a retro Kenner-inspired deco. The nostaglia spills over onto the carded Luke Skywalker X-wing Pilot figure (VC420) and the R2-D2. Preorder opens on exclusively (for now) on Hasbro Pulse August 20 at 1pm ET for $139.99.

STAR WARS: THE VINTAGE COLLECTION X-WING FIGHTER AND LUKE SKYWALKER (X-WING): KENNER COLORS 

(HASBRO | Ages 4 & up | Approx. Retail Price: $139.99 | Pre-order on August 20 at 1 PM ET on Hasbro Pulse; available Fall 2026) 

The STAR WARS: THE VINTAGE COLLECTION X-Wing Fighter and Luke Skywalker set includes a vehicle and 2 action figures inspired by the originals. This Rebel Alliance starfighter balances speed with firepower, making long-range jumps with its hyperdrive and its astromech droid co-pilot. Calling back to the original 1970s and 1980s vintage Kenner toys, the X-wing Fighter features Kenner-inspired detailing, such as new deco on the starfighter and additions to the cockpit. Reimagine adventures in hyperdrive on your shelf with this articulated Luke Skywalker figure wearing pilot gear with Kenner deco, and his retro-inspired co-pilot R2-D2. Comes with removable helmet and blaster for Luke Skywalker figure, plus pieces to complete ship assembly. The X-wing Fighter comes in a closed box package with Kenner branding. Luke Skywalker (X-wing): Kenner Colors figure is on a retro-inspired cardback with VC number. Look for more 3.75-inch figures to build out your shelf (each sold separately, subject to availability).

Hasbro also partnered with Bossk’s Bounty today to reveal the Vintage Collection Deluxe Amani Guard (VC419) from The Mandalorian and Grogu. Preorders open on July 30 at 1pm ET via Amazon and Fan Channel

Note: the SDCC/Hasbro Pulse exclusives will not be available for order on July 25. Only the new product announced at SDCC will preorder at 5pm ET.

The two exclusives sets will release on a different day.

Thanks to the Hasbro Team for clarifying.

Hasbro Pulse has activated the product pages for the upcoming SDCC/Pulse exclusive TBS AT-RT & ARF Trooper (The Clone Wars) and the TVC Anakin Skywalker & Asajj Ventress (Clone Wars Micro-Series) – look for them to go live shortly after SDCC.
