Chris Cocks is currently at New York Toy fair and there he was interviewed by Yahoo Finance about the new tariffs imposed by the US administration, targeting, among other countries, also China, which is still the #1 manufacturer of toys worldwide. And while efforts are on the way to move away from China, it will take a long time to fully replace China and especially all the Star Wars action figures are basically still made there, so there is no escaping tariffs for now. And this means: price increases are looming on the horizon. Read more after the jump!

Hasbro’s second Fanstream of the year revealed several new The Vintage Collection releases (and one Pipeline Reveal):
The Vintage Collection Reveals:
- Momaw Nadon (VC362) – Deluxe size card back
- Ponda Baba (VC70 re-release) with alternate card back
- Imperial Armored Commando (VC366) – Deluxe size card back
The Vintage Collection Pipeline Reveals:
- Landspeeder (retooled)
Pre-orders to launch March 5th at 1 PM Eastern. Hasbro seems to be using the ‘Deluxe’ size card back as an excuse to charge more for newly sculpted figures that would very obviously fit on a normal card back, and it’s criminal that they did it to an Original 96 card back.

Major Hollywood trade magazines like The Hollywood Reporter are running the story as well, this time it’s apparently for real! Click through to read it all!!!
