A follow up report from @staleconversations on Instagram lets us know that the PhotoReal/Repaint wave of Vintage Collection has turned up at Target in Virginia. Sadly, he suggests that C-3PO may be the best of the bunch due to questionable application of deco on the human figures. Click on through to check out additional images of this wave.

Hasbro has released a card mock up today for K-2SO from the Vintage Collection as part of their new Fan First Friday promotion. Each Friday, they will be revealing details, fun facts and videos about products (not limited to Star Wars), artists and even new preorders when applicable. They also officially acknowledged the TVC Wolffe and Power Droid card mock ups revealed recently. Click the image above for a closer look.
The first repaint wave (26) of TVC figures for 2020 is currently enroute to Canada according to shipping data and should be available at retail soon. Cases consist of 2 of each of the above figures.
DorksideToys by way of @Flyguytoys has shared the cardback design for the upcoming TVC Power Droid. Note this is just Hasbro mockup of the bubble as the tray and size have yet to be finalized. You can still preorder yours now at sponsor DorksideToys.
DorksideToys has shared with us the first look at the packaging (mockup) for the upcoming TVC Clone Commander Wolffe. As you can see the bubble tray is not present in this rendering and the weapons and helmet are not packed out separately,
Preorder yours now at DorksideToys.
As a follow to our report from a week ago, it looks like those who were lucky enough to get their orders processed and filled from DeepDiscount.com can be on the lookout for your $42 TVC Poe Xwings soon. Instagram follower AJ Red 7 reports getting his today thanks to our post informing him of the deal.
For collectors that still may need this, it looks like DeepDiscount.com has the TVC Poe Dameron X-wing for only $39.10 (61% off). I’ve not ordered from them before so I can’t speak to their reliability but that is a steal none the less. Free shipping too on orders over $25.00.
As a follow-up to our report yesterday, Hasbro Pulse via Instagram has officially announced that Tuesday, March 31 they will hold a Fan Appreciation day with new reveals on select fan sites* for figures coming in 2020. Stay tuned for detail and follow Hasbro Pulse on Instagram,

With a good portion of the country on stay/shelter in place directives to combat the spread of COVID-19, I wouldn’t be surprised if Star Wars collectors were treated to new product preorders next week. I noticed that a few retailer pages have become active again for TVC figures like Wolffe and K-2SO. The same thing happened just this past Friday afternoon when Hasbro dropped preorders for the new 6″ GIJOE Destro Classified Series figure (which I quickly snapped up from sponsor DorksideToys.) Could Wolffe and K-2SO (and others) be part of the preorders?
In this time of major upheaval in the routines of our lives, we thank you for your continued support of our site and our sponsors.
Prizes include 6″ TBS Sith Trooper, 6″ TBS Boba Fett, TVC Luke Skywalker Jedi Destiny set and the Vintage Collection Jabba’s Sail Barge! See this link for full details.
