While hunting for new/any Vintage figures tonight, I rescanned that new DPCI (087-06-2413) that turned up in the Target database last month. To my surprise, it now registered at an odd clearance? price of $6.28. Too bad this particular store didn’t have any new figures to take advantage of this bargain.
On a similar note, reader “Scott from Tulsa” sends in a report of finding TVC figures clearanced down to $4.00 at his local Walmart.
Entertainment Earth has received cases of the Deleted Scene wave (with TPM carry-forward figures) of Vintage Collection figures and they are in-stock and ready-to-ship. Save gas, avoid the retail hunt and order yours today.
Yakface reader Brett X writes in with word of finding the new Blu-Ray “Deleted Scene” wave of Vintage Collection figures at his local Target in California. Great find Brent! You can see more images of his haul over at his blog OnePerCase.net
While checking out a clearance endcap at Target today, I saw a vintage 3-pk marked down to $9.98 (or something like that)… I had bought a few of these last week at the same store for this price, and decided to scan this one on the off chance it was marked down to 75% off now… instead, it rang up at $24.99! This was the old, dusty Needa-Dengar-AT-AT Driver set… strange, eh?
And also today, according to our friends at Jedidefender.com, this is a new DPCI number, 087-06-1172 – hopefully soon we’ll find out more details regarding some sets of new figures… though the price increase certainly isn’t welcome!

Hasbro’s theoretical street date of Jan. 30 continues to be ignored. We’re receiving reports daily of collectors finding new products at their local Target and Walmart stores. In fact, today I managed to score myself the entire Vintage TPM wave and New Clone Wars assortment at Walmart. Remember, persistence pays off sometimes, but it also costs an arm and a leg too.
