Vintage Collection Rumors

[Darth_Anton]

I can get behind all of those.

I'd also like to see a nice new Removable limbs C3PO. I'm betting a really nice set can be designed that includes the box that Chewie carries him in back to Han and Leia.

If I'm choosing, OT and PT are at the bottom of the list for Vintage figures I want.

I want dozens and dozens of figures from TLJ, TFA, Rogue One, and Solo before I want nearly any OT or PT figure.

[Mister Skeezler]

Yeah I agree with that. I haven't collected any of the ST figures (though I loved TFA and TLJ), because I'm not sure if there will be a real collection to collect with those. I also really don't like the 5 POA figures, so those were out.

Several years ago I trimmed my displayed collection to OT only, though I still have all the PT stuff). I consider Rogue One and Solo as part of the OT world, so they get displayed. It'll probably be the same with the Mandalorian, and the Cassian Andor and Obi Wan shows. We'll see.

I'm still holding out hope that we'll get SA versions of the Rogue One squad.

That cargo shuttle would be nice too.

[Jesse James]

I’d pay good money for a scale UWing.

I’ve given up hope on them fleshing these films out more than they already have though.

We have a three year film hiatus coming up.  While I'm hoping for some SA Mandalorian goodness (sprinkled with a little Kenobi here and there), we're also getting the Bro adventures of Cassian and K2S0!  I'm hopeful that they will be promising enough for a Rogue One revisit with some quality figures.

I concur whole heartedly on the U Wing. In fact, I was just having a conversation with someone last night about it. 
(Read into that wink.)

Rogue one revisit? I'd love a Vintage K2SO.

[Mister Skeezler]

Definitely need—at a minimum—Chirrut, Baze, K-2SO, Bodhi and Krennic.

Ideally though, U-Wing (I'm totally reading into that wink, Darth Anton), Scarif rebels, Saw Gerrera and his militia, Rebel pilots, Jedha citizens, background characters from the Ring of Kafrene. Mon Mothma would be such a welcome resculpt, and a new Grand Moff Tarkin as well.

It would also be a good opportunity to get a new Y-Wing.

Without Jaxxon, Vintage Collection is laxin'!

It's times like this that I recall a passage from another space franchise that seems applicable here....


James T. Kirk: A guess? You, Spock? That's extraordinary.
Spock: [to McCoy] I don't think he understands.
Leonard McCoy: No, Spock. He means that he feels safer about your guesses than most other people's facts.
Spock: Then you're saying... it is a compliment?
Leonard McCoy: It is.

One of my favorite exchanges.

In case you missed it, here's the latest rumor at Yakface:

This past weekend there were plans to show another TVC vehicle at one of the conventions but it was pulled from reveals at the last minute. As evidence of this fact, BBTS had the “Duckboat” listing as part of their preorder email newsletter announcement this morning (shown above) but it currently directs to a dead link.

Without revealing the full details to protect my source(s), I can say that this is the TVC vehicle from The Mandalorian for 2020 that has been on our list for a few months and it’s “Imperial” in nature. No word yet as to when it will be officially revealed or available for preorder.

Fingers crossed that the vehicle gets revealed at either the Lucca or Barcelona panels this weekend... but knowing what it is, I guess I would not be surprised if they saved the reveal until after folks have had a chance to see the show.

[Jesse James]

Hmmmm you tease. 🤔

I just hope it is the imperial shuttle I keep seeing people wish for in TVC box...  I can only fathom the flipping of **** people would do at the price of that.😆

[McMetal]

Could it be the TIE with collapsible wings? Saw some pretty cool concept art...
