Hasbro has revealed their SDCC exclusive: The Vintage Collection Krrsantan, as seen in The Book of Boba Fett. Featuring 14 accessories, this can be secured at SDCC by visiting the Hasbro Booth (#3213) and picking up a one-time use code to pre-order the figure. As always, a limited amount will be available at Hasbro Pulse after the show. Look for this set to retail for $39.99.

If you missed out on buying the Target exclusive Droids See-Threepio online, start checking your local targets. JTA reader Jeff reports that he found these at his local Auburn, AL Target. Let us know in the comments if you find these in your area.

Another day, another Fan Celebration reveal. Three new The Black Series exclusives will go on sale tomorrow at 1 PM Eastern. The Clone Wars Clone Trooper (212th Battalion) will be a Walgreens exclusive. The Bad Batch Clone Captain Rex and Crosshair (Imperial) will both be Walmart exclusives. Thanks to the team at Jedi Business for sharing the news.

Either Walmart is doing things right this time and keeping pre-orders open long enough for everyone to get an order in, or we are in for a lot of cancelations! Seriously though, this is how it should be done. Even their non-Star Wars pre-orders are still available for those interested.

Every now and then I ask myself if collecting something, anything really, is still fun or if something has become too much work. In a perfect and ideal world a company such as Hasbro would make sure that anyone who wants to buy something gets the chance to do so – by either simply walking into a store and finding things on shelves and pegs, or by going online and buying from Amazon, Entertainment Earth, Dorkside Toys or any other etailer. But reality is different. The “exclusive” figure or set has become a staple of collecting, exclusives are no longer the exception, but have become the norm. And scarcity seems to be a concept companies like Hasbro or Funko (and not just them) seem to like a lot. Why? Click through for some thoughts about collecting!

You have to wonder if The Last Jedi was such a “masterpiece” as some claim it is why the merchandising of it is in the toilet. (That’s not a dig at the film. I didn’t hate it as YouTube does.) While I think both extreme unbridled praise as well as volatile criticism of the film are a tad ridiculous, I can’t deny how poorly the merchandising performed (and in all honesty, this is where the real money comes into play). How many of us actually found the final wave of 3.75″ The Black Series [Phase III] exclusives? I have seen more reports of no one finding them than finding them. And if we did see retailer exclusives, how many of them clogged up shelf space until discounted and eventually removed? JTA reader Scot G. found some key “The Last Jedi” exclusives at his local Tuesday Morning store along with other unsellable stuff. Hopefully, the next film will be a marketing juggernaut.

Collectors of an enlarged scale of action figures are probably going to start seeing red. Literally. Imagine a matrix of myopic proportions making its way to your collection exclusively. The question is, will you be able to tell them apart?

Following the success of the popular SWCO Thrawn exclusive cover, SDCC attendees will get a chance at an exclusive cover version of Inferno Squad. I’m sad I will be missing out on this one!
