Title: 2020 TVC Wave 4 (aka New TVC Wave 14)
Post by: Jeff on February 22, 2020, 05:46 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...

This wave is tentatively scheduled for September 2020.

Here is the case pack from Entertainment Earth (https://www.entertainmentearth.com/product/HSE7763B?id=JE-405087801).

2x Redacted
2x Redacted
2x Redacted
2x Episode 6 Luke Skywalker Jedi

Real helpful info, I know... more details to come later this Spring.

Although I will wait to see what the exact contents will be, this would not be a horrible gamble to pre-oder blindly.

Rumored case contents from Jayson/Yakface (https://yakfaceforums.com/main/2020/02/23/rumor-report-tvc-mystery-figures/):

Hondo Ohnaka (SWGE)
Clone Trooper Fives (TCW)
Chirrut Imwe (Rogue One)
Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight)

Is that Luke any different than the 3-pack one?

C知on, Rob. After all, it IS on a new individual cardback now!  ::)

/sarcasm

All that aside, it looks like a promising lineup in terms of characters.  But Hasbro seems to want to just drill down on the new Luke head sculpts a little bit too eagerly.  And it would have been nice if that same passion carried over to the Battle of Crait version, because that likeness needed some help.

Hondo Ohnaka (SWGE)
Clone Trooper Fives (TCW)
Chirrut Imwe (Rogue One)
Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight)

Dig it. Like the Rogue one love, but I'm genuinely surprised by the lack of Mandalorian.

I知 more surprised by the complete absence of any new figures from The Rise Of Skywalker.

Agreed.  It's extremely disappointing that we've basically gotten Zori Bliss, one Knight of Ren, a few troops with minimal screen time, and re-hashes of Rey and Poe.

I wonder if that might be predictable on some level. They always have a parking lot of ideas that they can move forward for new waves... right? Maybe they didn't add much from ROS to the parking lot, or not invest too much time or money on ROS characters if there was some question about renewal of the license.

You know, I actually meant to add that thought, but got distracted.

I managed to get all 8 figs from these two waves Jayson broke early before Amazon pulled the six links. Hopefully they stay pre-ordered despite that.

New troop with possibly the most screen time, First Order Jet Trooper not in 3 3/4" form.

Give me Dravin, Merrick, and Mothma before re-sculpts, but I wouldn't complain with more Rogue One goodness overall.

I'd also love that giant mind-reading slug and it's kind of weird that there was never a Tarkin figure specifically for this movie.

According to Yakface, between now and the end of 2021, we're getting 30 TVC items. Includes figures and ships. Crossing fingers for more Rogue One love.

Correction: Over 30.

I don't even care if it's Phantom Menace at this point, I just want them to make character that we don't already have in some form or another.

And someone will be there to complain about Hasbro's choices on each and everyone of them! 

And someone will be there to complain about Hasbro's choices on each and everyone of them!  Too many resculpts; they cost too much; the scale isn't right; I can't find them in stores, it's still not enough; Hasbro loves 6" collectors better, etc etc.  God bless the collectors. :P

I'm sure it'll be back... I have a Smuggler's Run Falcon pre-order, so that's the only thing I didn't bother with on Pulse today.

Now Amazon claims my Fives is coming 10/11. That can't make sense can it? Should mean they'll officially show the fig this week.

Really????

I ordered a set of figures from this wave in July and I still haven't heard a thing from Dorkside.  Are they processing cases before sets?

Ugh. Target canceled my Hondo order. It was backordered once and I got an email telling me to confirm if I still wanted it, which I did. It was backordered a second time but I missed that email, and after not hearing from me, they canceled the order 7 days later.

I already have the figure from the Smugglers' Run Falcon, so maybe this is sign I need to cut down on buying duplicates.

But one solitary notification of pending cancelation? That's a bad process.

Did it just happen? If so, run to the store and they probably still have it in Guest Services.  I did that with my Rogue One Tank (Similar issue, one notice and I missed it), but got there before they took it off their hold shelf.  They were actually about to put it out on the sales floor and even marked the price down, so I was able to purchase it for less than what I originally ordered!

It hadn't shipped yet.

The email said I can go to my orders page and re-order, but since it's out of stock, that wasn't possible.

C'est la vie.
