Glad to see Skiff Lando coming out again, one of my favorite figures since way back in the vintage days. Poo on it being a WM exclusive though.

So deleted scene kitbash like the rumor or is it some kind of rerelease that I’m forgetting about?

Yes, it is supposed to be the VC89 sandstorm base figure with 'fixed' legs to correct his height.

I guess I never noticed he had height issues before.

My belief you were omnipotent about Star Wars has been shattered. Bad day.

An easy pass for me.  I don't need a kitbash of something I've already got.  Glad to see this is a WM exclusive and thus will never make it to retail to clog the pegs  :P

Lando Skiff Guard was always one of my favorite figures though.

Like having the vintage carded figure though.

I'm in for two.  Once for the new Skiff and one for my Jabba's Palace Dio.
This is the way.

Link to Walmart.com.

In true Walmart fashion, I guess they were up for pre-order for a very short time that 90% of people missed.  :-X

Has anyone commented on the fact that he has a holster, but no blaster?

I missed it but I’m not sure I care if I ever can get an order in...  I didn’t even know Lando’s height was wrong. 😕

Certain stuff I’m willing to just forgive I guess?  If I can tracknone down fine but I don’t know if I care or not.  I didn’t get this clone they’re putting out that some people apparently beat Hasbro up over because some minor deco stuff on that minor grey deco suit was off...  I always felt that was such a background clone I was just happy we got what we got. 🤷‍♂️

I’ve not gotten Boussh Leia either.  Some stuff they’re rereleasing just doesn’t mean anything to me and owning a cardback isn’t worth $14 or more when I’m spending on so much other junk.

Lando is available for pre-order, when I finished ordering mine and copied the link it said there were 3 left:
