I think Yak Face’s poem yesterday is teasing that the Skiff is happening and that it’ll be all new.

Wasn't that already announced?  I must have dreamed it.  This is a no-brainer with the Khetanna coming out...

The TIE variant I'm hoping for is the TIE RB (or TIE Brute) from SOLO.  That was a really cool new take on a TIE fighter!

I want one of those too.  :D
This is the way.

Kind of expecting them to announce TVC will be exclusive to Hasbro Pulse and the Disney Store, since Target and Wally are useless.

I told you about it at a meeting.

I see that SW.com announced Triple Force Friday, so now I'm hoping we get a tease of 3.75" TVC The Mandalorian figure(s) at Toy Fair - probably a long shot, but I'd guess we have a better shot at seeing these than the Ep9 stuff.

YF originally teased it as a repaint I thought so new is a nice possible surprise.  Read the comments below the story as there is more revealed by Jaysonnin there.

Per Yakface front page.

You can pre-order 6" Luke Stormtrooper and 4" Vintage Collection Han Stormtrooper on Target.com

The first six retro figs were up for pre-order too but sold out. I love the look of those.

Re: New Skiff (speculated.) Pack-in figures have gone by the way-side, save for yak-face, but it would be nice for a new skiff to include one of the yet-to-be done skiff guards/driver.

Re: Kenner styled figures, once again I'm in the minority. I'm kind of excited about these, mainly because I love displaying my vintage figures, but I haven't over the last several years because of fear of the figures being light-damaged. This line might actually make me dump my 6 inch black series figures.

These were the notes I was able to jot down during the live tweetstorm at the panel:

RETRO COLLECTION
- *ONLY* 6 figures (scuffed cards, supposedly perfect replicas)
-Exclusive Tarkin in Escape from the Death Star Game

VINTAGE COLLECTION
-No new mainline figure reveals
-New packaging on the way
-Sail Barge to begin shipping March 4 via FedEx w/ tracking & signature required
-Sail Barge to be made available internationally
-Limited quantity of Sail Barges to be made available via eBay
-Lando Skiff Guard - WalMart exclusive VC144 (may be a retool of the TVC sandstorm figure with new legs)
-TVC 3-pack of Skiff Guards w/ Vedain, Doallyn & Vizam - WalMart exclusive
-Jabba adventure playset with ReeYees & Han Solo in Carbonite with diorama walls, tauntaun head, magnetic floatation - WALMART EXCLUSIVE
-NEW Skiff vehicle with desert base, clear stand.  New sculpt.  Likely an online exclusive

Thanks for the Intel!

But I think you accidentally typed Walmart a bunch of times......

Some of that info definitely needs some clarification.  Live tweeting can only be so accurate when a presentation is really moving. 

Obviously there's going to be an image dump from Hasbro.  And photos from the showroom will probably start coming out in an hour or so.

The Skiff Guards 3-pack can be pre-ordered from EE and Dorkside right now, so I don't think it's a WalMart exclusive - maybe an exclusive to Walmart in that it won't be showing up at Target?

I'm hoping the Jabba's palace set is also easy to preorder and not haunt WalMarts for.

Why did they give WalMart more exclusives after how badly they handled the Rey and Mimban Stormtrooper AND the Black Series before TVC came back?!?!?!

Don't forget how their Kessel Playset exclusive never made it to stores either.
