The Vintage Collection / Re: 2024 TVC Wave 1 (New TVC Wave 33)
« on: April 12, 2024, 06:43 PM »
If I had to hazard a guess, I would say they can't make any more for now because they are using the mold to make the Mural 2-pack version right now, and/or they figured 2 runs of the figure already would be enough.

This would be my guess as well.  I have also heard that the production numbers on the secondary TVC assort (F6878) are lower than the regular assortment (E7763).  No way to verify that though since Hasbro never comments on those #s.

Reminder that F6878 is now a "fan channel" assortment and the other E7763 is the mainline assortment.  It could be that "fan channel" assortment has a lower production number since they don't have to make enough for Walmart/Target?

It's a little odd if they are going to ask us to back this upcoming Haslab before we even have the last one in hand.

They've been doing that quite a bit with recent projects - examples:
- GI Joe Classified 6" HISS Tank (Aug 2022) ran before the GI Joe 3.75" Skystriker shipped (Jan 2023)
- GI Joe Classified 6" Dragonfly (Jul 2023) ran before the HISS Tank shipped (Dec 2023)
- Galactus (Aug 2021) ran just about when the Sentinel was being shipped (Sep 2021)
- TFers Deathsaurus (Nov 2022) ran just before the TFers Victory Saber shipped (Dec 2022)

I guess they figure with each of the major brands having 2-3 HasLabs under the belt, folks will be more trusting that things will get delivered.

The Vintage Collection / Re: 4” Epic Hero Series Figure Line
« on: April 11, 2024, 09:23 AM »
Looks like there is an N-1 with Mando and Grogu.

At $35, it costs ~1/4 what the TVC version did.  That will assuredly bring complaints from some people who spent $130 on the TVC version. Here is the Yakface pic for those who have not seen it. Yakface story



Kill me.

At least it's only $35 - and maybe you'll catch a nice sale. :-\

Love the Kanan, but I really hope we get the rest of the Rebels mains in Season 1 attire. (I thought that's what this Ezra was originally supposed to be.)

I pre-ordered this Ezra, but may end up cancelling.  I just can't decide if I really want it.

If they were giving us "Ahsoka" Ezra, I would have wanted the bearded 'lost' Ezra.  If this was supposed to be based on the holo-Ezra, then why isn't it more "holo-y" like other holo figures they've done?  My Ghost will already have the HasLab S4 Ezra and this guy kind of doesn't fit with the Ahsoka stuff really.  Not sure where I'd put him if I keep my pre-order.  It's like he's live-action version of S4 Ezra which isn't even really a thing.

Agree though that S1 Ezra, S1 Hera, S1 Sabine all need to stay on my wishlist.

TV-9D9 / Tales of the Empire (Disney+)
« on: April 4, 2024, 01:22 PM »
New season of "Star Wars: Tales of" series - Star Wars: Tales of the Empire.  Coming to D+ on May the 4th.

https://www.starwars.com/news/tales-of-the-empire-trailer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SIST9t72kY

Journey into the fearsome Galactic Empire through the eyes of two warriors on divergent paths — Nightsister Morgan Elsbeth and former Jedi Barriss Offee. Like the first season following Ahsoka Tano and Count Dooku, Tales of the Empire focuses on previously untold events in the lives of the featured characters. The trailer teases that we’ll learn how a young Morgan Elsbeth navigates the expanding Imperial world towards a path of vengeance, while former Jedi Barriss Offee does what she must to survive a rapidly changing galaxy. The choices they make will define their destinies.

I didn't watch the WonderCon replay - were there any hints or discussion on the supposed upcoming HasLab offering?

No, Hasbro only had an hour for all the lines combined. It was pretty much just 10 minutes for Priya to go through the 4 items shown.

23
Amazon sold Krrsantan, Paz, and Sabine, but stopped carrying the DLX with Jango (and now Zeb).

Krrsantan and Sabine have held value pretty well at Amazon (maybe dipping down to $23-25ish range) but Paz has been more like the Dark Trooper with plenty of drops to $12-14 range.

is Zeb not going to be on Amazon?

Like Dlx Jango, he is just Fan Channel (EE, Pulse, etc) with no Amazon planned for now.

Not sure how his scale will be compared to the others

Hasbro had posted some new group shots to the Hasbro Pulse instagram.  Not always easy to get a full sense of size from pics like this due to posing/lighting, but you can see the HasLab version looks pretty beefy compared to Ezra in this first pic.




It won’t be too much longer before we see an Ahsoka Bar Zeb on more deluxe packaging for another $26.

Maybe the true purpose of that X-Wing Pilot 4-pack is to introduce a new 'large guy' pilot buck that they can then use with parts from this Zeb to make a Mandoverse Pilot Zeb? 

29
So that’s pretty lame that he fits on a regular card with the Ghost but then has to be a $25-ish deluxe set at retail.

During one of the HasLab fanstreams they said Zeb would normally be a deluxe based on his paint apps/size but was on a card for the purposes of completing the mural cardback set.  I'm guessing that was to prepare us for this version being a deluxe instead of carded.
