2020 TVC Wave 3 (aka New TVC Wave 13)
« on: February 22, 2020, 05:47 PM »
Not 100% sure, but I believe these waves will be coming after the Summer repack waves (formerly called 2020 Waves 2 and 3).  Good chance the Wave # order will be moved around as we get closer to Fall...

Here is the case pack from Entertainment Earth

2x Redacted
1x Episode 4 Vin Power Droid
3x Redacted
2x Redacted

More details to come later this Spring.  Sure hope whatever is coming at 3x per case is worth it to justify short-packing the Power Droid.

This case assortment doesn't make sense. 1 new figure, then multiples of repacks? I'm sure it will be revised like you said.

The "redacted" will be some combo of repacks and the ones Jayson has already teased.

Since Jedi Luke is not in the wave, there's a good chance the Stormtrooper Luke is in this one.  That leaves two spots for Chirrut or TCW Trooper or Hondo or whatever else they saved to reveal at the Spring/Summer conventions.

I'm sure Jayson will have the waves all figured out before whatever convention is planned to reveal them.

Yeah that’s a really nice looking improvement to the power droid.

Minimal effort and a new figure = fine by me.  Plus I know Scott can finally x that one off the list and rightfully so.

Now I truly push for a true blue Death Star (Squad) Trooper.  Grey suit, tunic with the front zipper design, headset under the helmet.   ;D

I'm a fan of gonk droids. The removable upper half makes it a worthy figure on it's own and and not an overpriced accessory. A definite buy.

added: Hmm. Totally forgot we already had the bottom half produced. I buy color variations of astromechs, so a modified upper half on this still makes it a plus in my book.
 
(And I'd love to see the battlebot droid from Solo and the 4-legged power droid from the movie I can't recall at the moment.)

Well, that was sure faster than I was expecting!  Rumored case contents from Jayson/Yakface:

Power Droid (ANH)
Airborne Trooper (ROTS)
Luke Skywalker (Stormtrooper Disguise)
K-2SO (Rogue One)

Will be interesting to see which one is the 3x per case...

There's no way it isn't the Luke at 3 per, right?

I’m really glad to see K-2SO on this list.  And that Rogue One seems to be getting some more acknowledgment as a solid SW movie.

Sure, but how about Merrick, Draven, Mon Mothma... that big mind reading slug, a Saw improvement, a better Galen Erso...  get the Stormtrooper back into circulation for repacks.

K-2SO was already pretty good.

I'll probably get a bunch of the K-2S0.  One for the Rogue One squad and a few to put with the rest of my Imperials.
This is the way.

Okay. Cool. It's nearly an army building case. Will definitely pick up a few K-2SO's. I can see the actual case breakdown being 2 per, but who knows?

Do we have any idea of the Airborne Trooper and Luke Stormtrooper are new or repacks?
