30AC "Vintage" Wave

[Darth_Ice]

Picked up VIntage line for 9.99 at TOYS today. Only figure I do not care is Leia..they rest are cool.

I hit a bunch of Targets yesterday and came up with a case of vintage.  They're all pretty cool.  And Hasbro might actually make me a believer in Bossk despite my protestations of him being included in this year's vintage line.

Picked up a set with an extra Bossk and Snowtrooper today as well. I like em all except the Leia is so so. IG-88 rocks as well as the Snowtrooper.

The poseability of the IG droid is incredible! The improved height a plus! The only thing I don't understand is the holster on his back-it has a hole in the bottom but fits no gun that he carries? Hmmmmm

I don't know what that thing's for either, but I guess we could throw an extra gun from some other fig in there. Love the butcher knife, though, and its prominent display over the shoulder.

I saw a case of these in the back of the Target I work at today. Didn't get any though since I didn't have enough money. I'm hoping the stores are ordering more, because I only saw one V30AC case surrounded by cases of Transformers and Fantastic 4 crap.

Nope, only one case per store.

I was just curious, when are these "supposed" to hit?  I've heard May 27th, or I've also heard June 2nd.  I was just curious when I should head out looking for these, although I know there have been some reports already of finding them at TRU or at Target (via DCPI).

Sure.

I have no idea. When I called on the 16th, Target told me that was the street date. That's why I was able to talk them into bringing a case out when I got there. But other people keep saying their Targets are telling them other dates and that some are refusing to put them out before June 2nd or 3rd. I have no idea if there's a manufacturer-imposed street date or if Targets just make up their own random dates.

The only date associated with the Vintage figures is the date of the next Target reset...  we all know that it is totally hit-or-miss as to how strict your local store is with things.   

In the next few weeks (on or around 5/27), you'll see the majority of Targets reset for the FF2 and Transformers movies toys.  At this time, the pegs for the Vintage figures (as well as the pegs for the Comic Packs) should appear.

[Nicklab]

There's no set street date from Hasbro.  When they do intend to have a firm street date the cases that ship will have red lettering on them saying NOT TO BE SOLD BEFORE **/**/2007.

When I bought my case on Friday I took note that there was no such writing on the case.  In fact, I didn't even take the figures out of the case when I got them.  I just took the whole box up to the register, checked out and kept the box.  And there's still no writing on it.  Any date that people might be referring to has to involved a reset date at the retailers and not something generated by Hasbro.

Im just glad I got mine this weekend.  I guess time will tell how many of these there will be, and the coins.

[Ook]

Any army builders have an extra POP? I'm not getting the Snowtrooper, but I'd like the coin set.

[Darth_Ice]

Ook, you heade down to LA this weekend? Im looken to hitch a ride down there?
