No worries Matt, just trying to keep things organized. ;)

I like how they have rebranded these "world building" sets and no longer are calling them "deluxe". 

$26.49 price.  Are all the extra accessories worth making it cost 2x time a basic figure?  ???

STAR WARS: THE VINTAGE COLLECTION 3.75-INCH BOBA FETT (TATOOINE) WORLD-BUILDING SET
(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $26.49/Available: Summer 2022)
Includes figure and 9 accessories (helmet, 2x Stormtrooper helmet, pistol, rifle, jetpack, rocket, 2x flames).  Available at most major retailers.

Here's some pics.  More on JD's twitter page - https://twitter.com/JediDefender

Thanks for the pics.

First, the bitching -- $27 for this? The other 3 were only $21.

With that out of the way, oh, dang, that face sculpt is incredible.

Hope online ordering is as smooth as the first 3 boxed sets.

That Boba is everything that the Black Series figure should have been. Essentially the same accessories that the SH Figuarts figure has with it.

And I'm ok with that.

Yeah, something tells me we'll get nine different versions of Boba Fett before we'll get nine other figures from The Book of Boba Fett.

While I appreciate getting different versions of the main character (same as The Mandalorian), I'd prefer that we'd get a whole lot more supporting characters instead.

The figure itself looks ******* perfect.

The price... not so much. Twice the cost of a basic figure and more than a 6" Black Series figure for what, two dinged up stormtrooper helmets and some flame effects for a jetpack?! This is not worth more than the other 3... (I'll still buy it.)

Gotta pay off the R&D on that failed HasLab Rancor somehow...  :-X

I keep coming back to the VC162A Armory pack Sith Trooper and the VC177 Din Djarin with the Child, both of which had comparable amounts of accessories and a price point below $18.  This $26+ price tag is a bunch of bull****.  The prices for the other Deluxe figures like the new Ahsoka or the Incinerator Trooper seem like they were picked at random.

Agreed this price seems too high. 

The other deluxe figures were Wal-Mart exclusives, so probably a drunk monkey missing a few fingers was typing in the prices... ???

Amazing figure but total trash in terms of the price and presentation.

Just wait for the slightly altered single card regular release too.  We’ll all be $40+ into two figures before we know it.

Now $18 just gets you a "carbonized" repaint.  ::)

At least the Kenner Retro Collection version is only $11.
