Victoria’s Cantina brings us our first Vintage Collection reveals of the day with the Imperial Gunner from Return of the Jedi and R2-D2 (Sensorscope). These Walmart exclusives will be available for preorder at 1pm ET on March 24 as part of Walmart Collector Con.

In this crucial time in which the #TimeForTonnika​ campaign is underway, false information has been spreading surrounding the Tonnika Sisters and why action figures have not been made of them. In this video, I’m going to give you the facts, dispelling the falsehoods that have been circulating recently.

It’s #TimeForTonnika. For decades, fans have been asking Hasbro to produce 3.75″ action figures of the Tonnika Sisters from the world-famous Cantina sequence in the original Star Wars. In 2017, they placed fourth in Hasbro’s official Fan Choice poll for Star Wars The Vintage Collection. In the past, there have been legal hurdles preventing at least one of these figures from becoming a reality. But that has changed.

Angela Staines, who portrayed one of the sisters, is ready to move forward with Lucasfilm to make her Tonnika Sister figure a reality. Hasbro is aware of this and so is Lucasfilm. The ball is in Lucasfilm’s court. Finally releasing the Tonnika Sisters would be an acknowledgement of the steadfast faith the fans have placed in Lucasfilm and Hasbro over decades of various Star Wars content and toy lines. It would also bring to a close the years of legend and mystery surrounding these two characters.
