2025 TVC Landspeeder with VC344A Luke Skywalker
« on: March 20, 2025, 10:06 AM »
Starting up a thread for this one since it sounds like it will be put up for pre-sale next week (3/26).

- Landspeeder (new tool/sculpt) - [pipeline revealed because people spotted it in this poster]




Thoughts on a pack-in?  Will there be one?  Sandtrooper?  Ben (double-dipping the new sculpt that's coming)?  Floppy Hat/Poncho Luke (double-dipping the VC344 sculpt)?

I could definitely see the potential for a double dip on the V344 Luke.  The landspeeder comes with his rifle.  But then I think about the TVC release from around 2011, and there was no pack-in figure.

Poncho Luke is a natural... or maybe a muddy / dirty C-3PO?

It feels like the carded pack-ins w/ repacks or retools have become the norm now though w/ vehicles and beasts. It seems like an easy way for Hasbro to justify raising the cost of the base item and it gets "carded completionist" collectors who wouldn't normally buy a vehicle to purchase one, and the "loose & carded completionists" to buy two. And with the rumored higher pricepoint on the Landspeeder, I think we can fully expect one.

Honestly I'd be good with any of the suggestions so far. If it does end up being a Sandtrooper, I'd want it to be the officer and then they can issue the grunts as a basic figure.

Looking at the latest rumor list from Jayson, he's got $59.99 as the MSRP for the Landspeeder.

He also has it listed as "Landspeeder w/VCXXX (A New Hope)" so I guess it's definitely got a pack-in figure...

Looks like EE is attempting to adjust down to $66.99 - if you add it to the cart, it's showing $66.99 in the cart.
