Sponsor Entertainment Earth has listed on their Drop Zone page a teaser for an upcoming preorder in February. The language “enlist” and “batch” seems to suggest something The Bad Batch related and will likely be the Vintage Collection Hunter from the already solicited TVC Wave 15 with Cassian Andor (Aldhani Mission) and Cal Kestis (Jedi Survivor). No word on if there will be anything else dropping that day but we will update when/if we learn more. Thanks to bac for the heads up.
Update: I’m reminded of the fact that there was a Black Series Omega from Season 2 pipelined back in October for MCM Comic Con, so she could be possible preorder as well.
Today we’ve acquired two new Deluxe Vintage Collection code names for figures coming in 2023: “Baytown” and “Bethany”. Priced $27.99 each, one may be Krrsantan from The Book of Boba Fett, the other is thought to be from a Disney+ series.
We’ve added these to the updated 2023 Master List for future reference.
The above figures were acquired via Time Warp Toys in St. Louis.
Just in time for the new year, we were able to acquire some of the newest TVC wave, and these figures are outstanding to say the least.
We have a few quick pics to share of Cassian and Vel – check them out, and as an added bonus for loose collectors, the Cassian head can easily be swapped out with his Rogue One figure with ease.
Thanks to an image from Alan A. from the Star Wars The Vintage Collection UK Collectors Group on Facebook, we get a look at the back of the Scout Trooper (VC273) and some of the upcoming figures for Wave 7 (Wave 15): Hunter (The Bad Batch), Admiral Piett, Phase IIClone Trooper and Starkiller
California retailer ToyHideout has posted in-hand images of the recently announced Vintage Collection Endor Bunker, Deluxe Paz Vizsla and the Black Series Scorch Gaming Greats figure. Hopefully we won’t have to wait 4-5 months for these to be filled through preorders.
Two more Target exclusive repaints were revealed today as part of Bring Home the Galaxy as Marvel.com announced two comic-inspired variants for the Vintage Collection Boba Fett.
As part of today’s final Bring Home the Galaxy reveals, Hasbro has announced the rumored/teased Walmart exclusive Vintage Collection ARC Commander Blitz from The Clone Wars. Look for this to go up for preorder tomorrow at 1pm ET.
