Balancing the Scales: TVC vs TBS Code Name Comparison for 2024

Without fail, when I post a rumor report regarding one scale or the other, the comments (on social media) turn into an “us versus them” situation in terms of what scale is more heavily favored by Hasbro. Interestingly, I took a look at my rumor list of TVC and TBS code names for 2024 products and you’d probably be (pleasantly?) surprised to hear that I’ve been able to find approximately 30 code names for EACH line. Granted, that’s only what I’ve personally been able to find info for, but as it stands, that’s pretty f’ing balanced.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled slap fight.

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

Yak’s Top Ten is Back

It’s time to create some new wish lists of figures that Hasbro will probably never make!

Yak’s Top Ten is back, with the focus taking us back to The Prequel Trilogy Films.

What are the top ten figures that you most desperately want to see made in The Vintage Collection from these films of Star Wars lore? Post your TVC wish list HERE.

You can also do the same thing for the 6″ scale line in The Black Series. Post your 6″ TBS wish list right HERE.

Note: Wish lists may also be posted in the comments section of this article. You may post both a TVC and TBS list, but please do not post your wish lists in this comments section AND in the forums. And please remember to indicate if you’re referring to TVC or TBS with each list.

Happy New Year / Return of the Forums

From all of us here at Yakface.com, we would like to wish our readers a Happy New Year. 2023 was an interesting year for collecting, with many amazing Hasbro releases, product arriving earlier than expected in some cases, and lots of toys showing up at discount stores.

We look forward to what 2024 will bring with optimism, and hope that you will continue to follow us this year. With that in mind, we have also been working behind the scenes to bring the Yakface Forums back to life. With this came some housekeeping, so some older threads were victims of Order 66, but we hope our readers will enjoy the new features that we’ve been able to enable. And with this, Yakfinities Customizing Challenges will return in 2024, though things might look a little different this year (more to come on that). The Enloe Trials photonovel series will return as well.

Again, Happy New Year and we look forward to another trip around the sun with all of you.

TVC Rumor Report: New Deluxe(?) Code Name Found

Been a while, huh? Today I came across a new codename for a 2024 Vintage Collection item “CROSSWALK” that looks to be another deluxe figure. It is priced similarily to the other recent deluxe offerings at $24.99, so it could be fan channel and/or mainline. Hopefully it has a been value than Jango. More details for this and other Vintage Collection items (not just figures) I’m hearing about start to surface soon.

I’ve updated the master list to include this new find and look for more updates soon.
