Thank goodness.  I've been waiting years for Darth Vader to get the 3.75" treatment.

Love the Mando lineup there.  Those would all be good choices.

Housekeeping - after today, we can bump Rex to "confirmed".  I was sad to see he's just a repack - would have been nice to see him get a new head with removable helmet, but oh well.  :-\

Confirmed:
2021 VC1xx Darth Vader (Rogue One)
2021 VC182 Captain Rex (The Clone Wars)

Rumored:
2021 VC1xx Moff Gideon (The Mandalorian)
2021 VC1xx The Mandalorian [Beskar Armor]  (The Mandalorian)
2021 VC1xx The Armorer (The Mandalorian)


Pretty sure the last three TVC from this wave will get revealed one by one as upcoming "Mando Monday" reveals in October/November.

Isn’t there still a SA Captain Rex they never released that dates years back? I feel like JTA is always harping about that...

Yeah, there was a Phase I Rex they showed a long time back for the 2012/2013 Droid Factory line.  Lots of people out there who still wish that figure would get released.

For whatever reason, Hasbro changed plans and gave us the Phase II non-removable helmet Rex in the 3.75" Black Series line in 2014/2015 instead of this Phase 1 figure/sculpt.

That’s the one! Thanks Jeff.  :)

Is the new figure a repack of that Black Series version?

YES!  These look awesome.  I think based on the timeline it took for Hasbro to roll these out, we're looking at this time next year for a look at season 2 characters who are yet to be revealed.

Wow, these both look outstanding. I’ll admit that due to the slow drip of news about the TVC line I sometimes almost put it on the backburner. Then we get some nice all new reveals like this and all the love of why I started collecting in the first place comes rushing back. Hope this is just the beginning!

It reminds me once again how cool an entire Mandalorian-focused line would be. Imagine all these main/supporting characters alongside figures of oddball aliens and bounty hunters we’ve seen along the way. A couple beasts, vehicles, and we are rolling.
