2019 Vintage Collection Skiff Guard 3-Pack
« on: February 16, 2019, 06:33 PM »
See Rob, all-new OT goodness - Vedain!

STAR WARS: THE VINTAGE COLLECTION TATOOINE SKIFF 3.75-INCH 3-PACK
(HASBRO/Approx. Retail Price: $39.99/Available at select retailers: Fall 2019)

Pre-Order now at Entertainment Earth!

Kind of a bummer to have to spend $40 for the one new figure but I'll still bite since the other two guys are dual purpose fodder for Jabba's Palace/Skiff.

This is great. I missed Doallyn at retail so there’s two new figures here for me.  :)

At this point it almost doesn’t bother me to pay an arm and a leg for a new OT figure!!

I am actually kind of okay with Vizam and Doallyn/Starsher being reissues.  I can use my originals for my Jabba's palace scene and the others on the Sail Barge and/or Skiff.  And it's also nice to get Vedain.  He drove the Skiff with Han, Luke, Chewie and Lando.  And after Vedain I think there's only one more skiff guard left to be made from that particular Skiff.

I’m with a Jeff...  I’m happy to get the new dude and toss the other two into my custom fodder since customizing is definitely back on the table with the line slowdowns.

I’m glad Lando finally has this dude to fight with.

So is anyone else tempted to paint their Doallyn/Starsher black to make a Jabba's palace version?

I'm a bit taken aback by the "one new figure" thing. For some reason, I though Hasbro was past that gimmick. At least we get to knock off one more Skiff guard!

I think I would have preferred someone other than Vizam, given his similarity to Vedain, but it's ok. Very cool set.

Looks like my EE pre-order for this set is processing... I'm hoping for a shipping notice soon!

Mine too.  I also ordered a Gammorean Guard in this order, I wonder if I'll get both or just the three pack.
This is the way.

EE ships what it has so if the GG's aren't in they'll ship separate.

I know that....but when I looked at my order at EE it looks like they are both being processed.

Received my shipping notification today.  Looks like it's the skiff guard set and the Gammorean Guard!

Waiting on my order to go through.  EE sent out the skiff guards my buddy and I ordered, so we're anxiously awaiting a new figure and two I can sell to people who seem to not realize they can go buy these in a 3-pack for less than they're paying for one figure on Ebay...  because...  I don't know why, but that's actually happening.
