We’ve received intel on a few new TVC code names for some “pipeline” figures coming later this year. To whom they correspond with has yet to be determined but the names are as follows: “Magnolia”, “Marigold” and “Mayflower”. Could they correlate to the rumored Gaming Greats figures for the Vintage Collection? Maybe we’ll find out in a future Fan First Friday.
Thanks to “anonymous” for the report.
Yakface Reader Mike N. shared these new in-hand shots of the next wave of TVC figures that have apparantly started to hit Target in AZ and were listed on eBay and Mercari. The VC numbering is a follows:
VC184 The Child
VC185 Greef Karga
VC186 Boba Fett
VC187 Leia (Bespin Escape)
VC189 Zutton
Also note the image card back for Boba Fett is the corrected version with the yellow accent color and the zoomed out shot for the reference image.
