Cool! Been wondering about that. Have a feeling I'll be canceling my pre-orderes and ordering a full case.
-
Are those listings from Amazon right, will the next TVC wave not come out for 6 months?
-

Who knows. Amazon originally said Wave 10 (Sith Trooper, Jawa, Shadow Trooper) would be 1-3 months out and then they started shipping the next week.
EE's pre-orders have a March 2020 date. Hasbro Press release just says "Spring 2020".
-
Looking forward to seeing the rest, but boy do these two look nice. Can’t wait. I really hope we see a TVC version of his ship (Razor’s Crest?) next year as well. That would be great.
-
Are we adding all the just announced re-packs to this wave?
AOTC Clonetrooper
Bespin Han
Bespin Luke
C-3PO
General Lando
Noting that none were shown with photo-real head-sculpts.
-

Maybe. Not all of the announced repacks will be in this wave since they announced so many - the five you have listed plus CW Anakin, CW Obi-Wan, Maul, and Wicket were announced at Barcelona today.
Clone Trooper seems to be in this wave, not sure about the rest.

Hasbro has confirmed these repacks are part of their own waves (see the threads for each).
What is in this wave is the new "Imperial Remnant" Stormtrooper (aka a weathered version of the VC140 Rogue One Stormtrooper) as seen in The Mandalorian. Amazon.com link, but it's already pre-sold out (https://amzn.to/32gZTV0).

I think you caught me in mid-edit - there are a ton of links that need to be posted and I'm probably going too quickly since the site has been down since last night. :P
-
I like it! I'm sure EE will get them soon.

So TVC jumped a dollar... do we know if that's tariff pricing? Just a regular increase? Temporary or permanent?
-

Yes, it looks like price increases are coming next summer. TVC MSRP is increasing $1; Black Series 6" MSRP is increasing $1.50-$2. I have no idea if it's tariffs, cost of business, etc.
-
Oh well. Super 7 wants $18 for 5 POA, so this isn't so terrible if it keeps Star Wars going.
-
This Stormtrooper is a bit of a surprise. But clearly Hasbro is trying to get their money's worth out of the tooling. Already we've seen the Stormtrooper from Rogue One, the Shadow Stormtrooper that's currently shipping, and now this Imperial remnant Stormtrooper from The Mandalorian.
-
Re-release this VC140 Stormtrooper away! I'm not going to pick up more than one of the Mandelorian to open. But, I will state again, Hasbro can re-release this sculpt in the following forma and I'd be amazingly happy:
- With holster sculpted like the 3-pack Luke Stormtrooper's holster. (SW Card!)
- Han Stormtrooper with afford mentioned holster.
- Luke Stormtrooper with appropriate TK421 belt.

Case pack for this wave now stands at 2x Mando, 2x Cara Dune, 2x Remnant Stormtrooper, and 2x AOTC Trooper.
-
Is the Clone Trooper just a repack from what we've already got?
-

VC45 Clone Trooper repack with photoreal head deco update.
-
Canceled my individual orders and ordered the case from EE. Makes life much easier.
-
Keep an eye on Walmart as the Mandalorian, Remnant Stormtrooper, Cara Dune and Clone trooper TVC figure wave has started to hit CA, PA, TX, MS stores.
-
I pre-ordered most of this wave on Amazon. And today they were up at the top of my orders. It has me wondering if Amazon is going to start shipping the wave soon.
-
None by me yet, since of course I do live at the ass end of the universe.
-
Brickseek is showing more TVC in stock in my general area. But I am just so fed up with going to retail in general that I'm going to wait for my online orders.

I'd much rather be able to walk into a store and buy these. However, at the same time, I accomplish more during the day avoiding toy runs.
-
I agree....I used to love going on toy runs, but my collecting habits have evolved with technology!
-
I don't have anywhere near enough time to be driving around to stores these days looking for toys. The internet is the best thing that ever happened to collecting IMO.
-
Came across this wave at two local WalMarts this past Friday and Saturday evening. The Friday evening find was only one case. The Saturday evening find was a whopping FIVE cases - needless to say, I was very happy to be able to score eight openers of the Remnant Stormtrooper that I want for my Imperial Troop Transport. I'm still hoping to get a couple more, but if I can avoid paying the online price of $13.99 each and get them for $12.93 instead, that will be ideal.
The Mandalorian and Cara Dune figures are both great as well.
-
This wave just appeared at a Target near Minneapolis.
-
EE orders are processing it appears as well.
-
Found full wave at one Target today and remnants at another. Fun to see something in the wild
-
Found the whole wave at Target during my lunch break today.
Wonder if this Mando will eventually become as valuable as the 6” version. He looks awesome.
-
Found some Remnant Stormtroopers.

-
Nice! The Remnant Stormtroopers look great in the transport vehicle. I’ve got a bunch on order from EE as I don’t really have time to hunt them all down at retail.
-
Got my case from EE! Mando and Cara are fantastic! We designed. This is why I love the Vintage Collection.
-
Found one Clone from this wave at a local Target. So close, and yet so far.
-
That Clone was only put in the case to let people know they missed the rest of the figures. It's equal parts exciting and disappointing to find him.
-
Just when I sort of started to forget how much I enjoy the 3 3/4” figures, TVC reminds me how much I miss it. I received Mando, Cara, and the Troop transport, and all three are just so nice. Honestly it isn’t often that I pick up a non 6” figure these days (because there isn’t much anymore), but so happy with all of these.
-
This wave is shipping in dribs and drabs. I got the Mandalorian from Amazon the other day. It looks fantastic, and I'm looking forward to doing some serious unboxing when life is returned to something a bit more normal.
I think Hasbro Pulse is processing my order for Cara Dune. But the Remnant Stormtroopers from Amazon? Nothing yet.
-
I got Mando two days ago too, didn't realize he'd shipped. I found the Clone Trooper at Target a few weeks ago, and likewise, Pulse is apparently shipping Cara Dune and Remnant Stormtroopers any day now. So that's nice.
-
Entertainment Earth has these shipping in May. Guess I have a little more time.
-
My case from EE is on its way right now Matt and I waited a long time to order one.
-
I didn't order a case. I just ordered two troopers, two Din Djarins and one Cara Duune.
-
Must send cases before singles I guess
-
Just got the shipping notification for the two stormtroopers I ordered, so the rest of the order shouldn't be too far behind! :D
-
Got Cara Dune in the mail today. Nicely done figure. I hope they have some good reveals with this web fan site thing tomorrow...
-
Got my Stormtrooper, Cara Dune, and Mandalorian figures. These things are beautiful. I can't tell you how much I miss 3.75" figures.
I wish Hasbro could find a way to make a lot more of these figures, even if they had to increase the price and use a different commercial model like going direct.
-
Agreed. I also got my Stormtroopers yesterday. The lack of 3.75" product for TROS and Mandalorian is criminal.
-
Alledgedly, I have a few more Remnant Stormtroopers on the way.
-
Where are you getting them from? I just went to order a few more and Pulse says they're sold out... I don't see them on Amazon, Walmart, or Target....
-
I pre-ordered from HTS a while ago.
-
Okay yeah, the two I ordered from them I got, but I can't order more as of now. Having seen them I'd like to at least order enough to fill up the troop transport...
-
I'll need to watch that episode again....I thought the transports were loaded with Gideon's troopers who were clean.
-
Over the past week my pre-orders for the Mandalorian and Cara Dune arrived, and I agree, these are great figures!
I was also able to get a couple of Remnant Stormtroopers from HTS, and I'm glad I'm an opener because FedEx just crushed that box! HTS is usually pretty good about packing boxes, so I'm laying the blame with FedEx. I also have a few more of these on the way from Amazon, and they're going to go really well with the Imperial Troop Transport that just arrived from Amazon today.
-
I'll need to watch that episode again....I thought the transports were loaded with Gideon's troopers who were clean.
Hadn't even thought of that... that makes more sense. Sure would be nice if that Rogue One trooper was readily available... I'd be buying those pretty regularly.
-
Can preorder still on EE for later this year.
-
Received my Remnant Troopers yesterday. They look awesome! I should be getting Din Djarin and Cara Dune today!
-
My two Mandalorian figures showed up today (Cara Dune tomorrow). Long story short....I love this figure! Great detail and paint. Now I need one where he's in his new Beskar armor!
-
I received my Mandalorian figure and 12 Remnant Stormtroopers on Saturday from Entertainment Earth. I also ordered a Cara Dune figure, but it hasn’t shipped yet. It was interesting as 8 of the Stormtrooper figures came packaged in their own case from Hasbro, specifically labeled for the figure, which gives me the impression Hasbro is releasing a lot of that particular figure.
-
Anyone else having a problem with bending The Mandalorian's arms at the elbows? Any idea on how to fix it? Would a hot water bath help?
-
I set him on the rim of my coffee mug for like thirty seconds and that did the trick.
-
Run his arms under hot tap water. They’ll loosen up.
-
You don't need to introduce moisture to your figures. A hairdryer on high heat for 30-45 sections will also loosen up the plastic joints. The worst thing you can do is try to force it without any heat. I had a Marvel Legends figure snap at the elbow just a week ago because I was being impatient and kept forcing it.
-
Thanks everyone! That did the trick!
-
I ordered this wave from Amazon and got my Cara and Mando figures in March. I was starting to worry that I may have missed the boat on the Remnant Stormtroopers but finally got a shipping notice last night.
Realized today that Amazon shipped me one Remnant Stormtrooper. Got another shipping notice today for two more coming from a different distribution center. One more is still waiting to be shipped. First time Amazon has ever had to break up a SW Figure order for me like that. Not sure if it's a reflection of the rarity of the Remnant Stormtrooper or if it's related to COVID-19 shipping delays/capacity issues.
-
At least you got yours, Jeff! I placed my Amazon order for 4 x Remnant Stormtroopers at the end of November. Earlier this week I got an email from Amazon asking me to confirm my order, which was scheduled optimistically for May 4th, for a later date TBD. That's almost 6 months! And while I did get my TVC Mando a while back, still no sign of this trooper.
-
Earlier this week I got an email from Amazon asking me to confirm my order, which was scheduled optimistically for May 4th, for a later date TBD.
I got that same email last week asking to verify that I was OK extending the shipping date, so maybe there is still hope for your order, Nick!

This would be odd even for figures from the same assortment, but multiple shipments for the same figure? That's really odd. Hope the orders come through for you guys.
