TVC Wave 8 Case and Set Preorders Open
Sponsor Entertainment Earth is now taking preorders for cases and sets of Vintage Collection Wave 8 which include Boba Fett (VC09) and carry forwards of Chewbacca, Rogue One Stormtrooper and R2-D2 (as we stated back in April).
The Many Expressions of Luke Skywalker
We all know that Luke Skywalker experienced great conflict in The Last Jedi, but I don’t think we were expecting Hasbro’s photo-real tech to emulate such a range of emotions on the new Luke Skywalker figure (VC 146).
For those that have gotten their hands on this figure, what are your impressions? I have two of them now… one looks really good and I love it; but the other one… not so much.
Let us know your thoughts after the jump!
UPDATE – New expressions added!
Affiliate Link: TVC Darth Revan Now Listed on Amazon
Amazon has finally activated the product link for the upcoming TVC Darth Revan (VC150). There is no updated image and it is currently out of stock but you can still order it and maybe it will fill at some point or maybe orders will get cancelled. It’s a crap shoot anymore with Amazon.
TVC Wave 7 Arriving From Hasbro Pulse

TVC Imperial Death Trooper Reinforcements at DorksideToys
If you are looking to bolster your Death Trooper ranks in preparation for The Mandalorian or missed out on them when first issued on the TVC card back, sponsor DorksideToys has added them back to their site for preorder. Look for them to start arriving toward the end of July.
Rumor Report: TVC Vehicle from The Mandalorian
News has been kind of light regarding products tying to The Mandalorian which set to debut in November of this year. But I’ve come across a bit of info that shows that a vehicle from the series will be offered in the Vintage Collection. I’m not sure if it will be out this year, but if what I’m hearing is accurate, it will be worth the wait.
UPDATE: Pricing I have found for “Huckleberry Hoodboat” puts this item (currently) in the $100+ range for the US.
Target Markdowns Refresher
DarthChuckMC has sent us a reminder of Target’s current markdown procedures which have recently involved those 6” TBS Luke (Death Star Escape), TVC Han Solo (Stormtrooper) and Retro Collection figures.
Update: TVC Archive Edition Reaches Another Stretch Goal
We’ve reached our $125k stretch goal milestone and are moving on to a stretch goal that’s close to our hearts. At $150,000 all book backers will receive a recreation of the reverse-side of Kenner’s 1984 Star Wars is Forever mail-away poster (shown above) using Hasbro’s The Vintage Collection action figures and vehicles. The poster will be arranged and photographed by its original creator, Kim Simmons. Kim was the principal Star Wars photographer for Kenner between 1981 – 2000 and if you own any classic Kenner items, it’s a sure bet his photography is featured on it.
Incredibly, Kim has confirmed he still has some of the original elements he used in the 1984 poster and they’ll be included in his TVC recreation! The 18×22-inch poster comes folded in a mailer envelope, like the original.
To back the Vintage Collection Archive Edition book, hit up Blue Milk’s Kickstarter page.
Update: new details added for the $175,000 stretch goal
