Fan Channel 2019 VC21 Gamorrean Guard (repack)

[Jeff]

Star Wars: The Vintage Collection Gamorrean Guard Figure
(HASBRO/Approx. Retail Price: $14.99/Available exclusively at Shared Fan: Spring 2019)**



** this is straight from the Hasbro Press Release - I'm not 100% sure yet what "Shared Fan" means...  other than it means he's exclusive and a few $$ more that the basic TVC line.

[CorranHorn]

Perhaps shared means various etailers will be selling him similar to the recent Piett?

[Rob]

Is this different than the last time we got a VOTC Gamorrean Guard?  I only managed to get three if those and am all about adding a few more.

[Nicklab]

Steve Evans spoke about this in the video presentation that Jedi News posted.  He said it was a shared exclusive but didn't really elaborate.  I think he may offer up some more info when they have their panel on Sunday afternoon.

[Phrubruh]

I never got one. What merits the markup in price? I remember the skirt needed trimming to make it look less like a puff ball.

This is Jayson's quote "it means that the guard won’t be available at retail but through sites like entertainment earth dorksidetoys, Amazon etc."

Other than the slight differences that will occur when making an item eight years after the first time, it's pretty much the same.  It will even have the same VC21 number apparently.

Basically they are just doing it to help collectors fill their Sail Barges...  makes you wonder what else they are planning to support the barge in 2019?  #secrets

I wonder about the card backs. Will they be the same set of figure on the back from the original release? What do you all think? Should they be the same or updated?

[Diddly]

I might buy one, but I scored a few Gamorreans from a local collector for cheap in like 2013, so I'm pretty good in terms of army building

[Scockery]

None for me. No barge, no guards.

[Matt_Fury]

I need one more for my Jabba's Palace display (I originally wanted a total of 4 [two holding the staffs to guard the entrance, than one to hold each type of axe], and ended up getting 3).

[Mister Skeezler]

I have a few of these already, but I'll probably get a couple for the barge.

A little anecdotal commentary, yesterday at the Kane County toy show I saw a couple of dealers selling these loose for $25-$30. Each had multiples early in the morning but by noon they were down to a couple each. So the market is there, hopefully the Gams will be easily available
