The Legacy Collection / Re: Funeral Pyre Vader w/ Luke

Obviously this is not intended to be a mainline offering. I think it's bound to be either an event exclusive or an online exclusive. Because it's a collector focused item. It's not designed to have broad appeal. And given the state of the collector base right now, I am not completely certain that this is going to make it to market.
My guess is that it's probably not coming out until next year at the earliest. Hasbro spoke specifically about trying to regain some focus in the movie line this year. But I think they're trying to bring back some of the collector base back into the fold this year with the Vintage Collection. If that's successful and collector focused items start to sell better, then perhaps it will be a positive development for the Funeral Pyre Vader.
