Rumor Report: New TVC Codes and a Reveal

Leave a comment

New info for the Vintage Collection has been a little light but I did manage to find codes for a few figures from our exclusive rumor report back in April as well as info for a another unannounced addition to the line – Princess Leia (Yavin Ceremony)*. This figure should be an update to the Walmart Exclusive version now with PhotoReal and joins the also unannounced Luke Skywalker (Yavin Ceremony) figure we exclusively revealed back in March. All relevant UPCs and Walmart SKUs have been added to our Master List.

*Walmart lists this as E6 Ceremony which I believe is an error due to their record of other mislabeling TVC figures, especially from TVC Wave 5.

TVC: Army Building in 2019

Leave a comment

With the reemergence of The Vintage Collection, Hasbro has been knocking quite a few Imperial army builder figures out of the park.   Retail availability is another story of course due to the Wave 1 logjam, but there’s no denying that many of the recent Imperial trooper figures are extremely impressive.

That being said, what are your army-building goals moving forward?  How many of the TVC Rogue One Stormtrooper figures do you want for your collection?  Will Hasbro come even close to meeting demand for that figure?  Do you want to see figures like the Patrol Trooper and Mud Trooper scaled down in 3.75″ scale?
