Picked up Gears and Warpath last weekend, so they’re getting out there now. They ship with carry-forwards of Bumblebee and Swerve, if you missed them earlier.

I remember when Mattel did something similar in 2003 in the MOTU line. It failed miserably.

Really hoping these are single-packed later. That a Jedi Luke would be amazing on the old Jabba’s Palace card.

Excellent. Ordered two of Luke and one R2. The other two I’m undecided on.

Picked one of these up today. Kinda wondering where I can put it now. It was too hard to pass on at $20.

Found this for $12 on Amazon just now.  :)

Picked up an old Ben Kenobi at Ross for $3.99. Also saw two 4" Black Series Jyn Ersos and I'm kind of wondering how long they'll sit there.

Was any more said about these at Toy Fair? Just wondering if they were still coming.

Uh oh. Hope it's still coming in March. Or I'm stuck trying to get them from Hasbro Pulse.  :-\

Somehow I doubt Hasbro will ever produce these in numbers that genuinely impact vintage prices. Unless of course they did something really awesome and offered Yak Face...

Hasbro and Takara have been selling reissues of Transformers for 20 years now and they really haven't lowered prices on the vintage stuff, though it could be argued they got out ahead of the stuff rising in value. Characters that haven't been reissued still maintain some secondary market heat (Wheeljack, Mirage, Sunstreaker to name a few) so maybe there's an argument here. I doubt this line of Kenner retro stuff will last too long, but I hope to be surprised.

Cool. I’ll totally get this then. $20 for a board game and vintage Tarkin is a deal.

My order of two Scarif Troopers came just fine. The card stock on this reincarnated TVC is really very thin.

This is great. I missed Doallyn at retail so there’s two new figures here for me.  :)
