The first barge orders have started to arrive to collectors. Frank L. posted a few shots on Facebook but one of note has already sparked some discussion. There is no styrofoam corners in inside the box to prevent the Barge’s gorgeous box from damage. I suspect a few horror stories will be shared as a result of this.

Rumor Report: TVC Luke Skywalker (Yavin Ceremony)
Looks like Hasbro’s dipping back into the orange line 3.75″ Black Series again as a new listing has popped up on Walmart.com via Brickseek for a Luke Skywalker (Yavin Ceremony) figure for the Vintage Collection. No word yet on exclusivity. On a related note, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a 6″ version of this figure before too long.
New Vintage Collection Glam Shots
Hasbro.com has also posted new glam shots of the specialty/fan channel wave of Vintage Collection figures featuring new Photoreal versions of Han Solo (Echo Base), Princess Leia Organa (Hoth), Luke Skywalker (Endor) and Darth Vader. Click on through for a closer look.
Yak’s Top Ten: Playsets
Yak’s Top Ten returns, with the theme switching over to something that until recently didn’t seem to be in Hasbro’s game plan… PLAYSETS! But of course, something has changed at Hasbro on this front (for the better).
What playsets do you want to see made in The Vintage Collection from? 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 indicate if you’re referring to TVC or TBS with each list.
3.75” TVC Mimban Stormtrooper Finally Hits Retail
We’ve read and received several reports that the long-delayed Walmart Exclusive 3.75” TVC Mimban Stormtrooper has finally started to hit stores. The image above was from a store in Atlanta, GA. via darthdj666.
Update: if you’re looking to use Brickseek as a method of tracking these down, be sure to use the regular assortment code for the Vintage Collection (239252624) as the Mimban Stormtrooper quantities are tied to that number rather than its unique product SKU.
