Hat tip to Hasbro and their team for advertising the nostalgia and world-building scope of the Vintage Collection on Amazon. The layout gives very strong mini-catalog vibes from a long time ago, in a collecting era far, far away.
They are also showcasing the Black Series to promote its premium design & poseability as well as the collectible nature of its packaging, all while offering “something for every fan”.
It was only a matter of time but Target has moved their Vintage Collection prices in line with MSRP and are now ringing out at $19.99 (previously $16.99). Congrats to those who were able to score this wave before the increase.
Hasbro presented their first fanstream of the year with new reveals for the Vintage Collection, Retro Collection and Black Series line. Click on through to check out the info.
Update: Adding press release images for TBS Fan Channel wave. No other imagery is available yet.
Reports are coming in regarding new Vintage Collection figures hitting Target stores in the central U.S. including Kansas, Texas and Minnesota. Most Targets are resetting aisles this week so your best chance at finding them is now. As a bonus, Target is still charging g $16.99 for TVC. Good luck on your searches. (087-26-2374)
I was beginning to think it wasn’t coming as a little bug in my ear told me that this week’s intended product drop was canceled and rescheduled for next week (Wednesday). Hasbro has confirmed that with the announcement of Monday’s Star Wars Fanstream. Chances are we’ll see a few rumors come to fruition with more on the way later this month.
Update: Also after 6 grueling months, we are finally getting the pay off on the Cantina characters teased back at SDCC 2025. Let’s hope it doesn’t disappoint.
Target has set a new TVC assortment tag and DPCI (087-26-2374) which (at least in my area) maintains the $16.99 pricepoint. This DPCI should be associated with the figures in the wave with The Stranger, Padme, Shaak Ti, Maul (Shadow Lord), and Darth Vader (Emperor’s Wrath).

Tim over at @bossksbounty on Instagram has posted in-hand shots of the May 2026 Fan Channel wave of Vintage Collection figures. Check out his page and look for a review of each soon on his YouTube channel.
It appears that the slow burn reveal of the upcoming Vintage Collection Cantina Patron Set will mercifully pay off sometime in January 2026. To refresh everyone’s memory this set was originally teased as part of Hasbro Pulse San Diego Comic-Con Star Wars Panel and speculation has been rampant ever since. MrStevie on IG gave us the nugget of info above over the weekend. That being said, we still have a month to go for the preorder and then months of waiting for them to ship out. I hope it’s worth the wait.
