Welcome to another entry in our The Vintage Collection: The Ninety Six column. Hasbro recently committed to collectors that they will be “focusing” on characters in The Vintage Collection that fall under “The Ninety Six” banner. If you’re new to this, it means that there needs a modern counterpart for every classic Kenner figure. Between 2020 and 2021, Hasbro’s made an admirable effort by focusing on these characters. But there is more work to be done, and we’ll figure out where we are step by step. Today we assess Biker Scout.

We still have new The Vintage Collection figures to check out! Let’s take a look at the $14.99 Scout Trooper Gaming Greats figure from Jedi Fallen Order. What a shame that this is our first Scout Trooper in TVC, and not on the appropriate Return Of The Jedi card. (more….)

• Imperial Probe Droid (75306).

LEGO officially revealed three new sets today:  Darth Vader Helmet (75304), Scout Trooper Helmet (75305), and Imperial Probe Droid (75306). These will all be available for pre-order soon, but in the meantime, Walmart.com has the product pages available (the product page for the Imperial Probe Droid is not yet live).

Update: The Darth Vader Helmet and the Scout Trooper helmet are now available to pre-order.

In 1984, new packaging for Star Wars figures was introduced for the European market. A cost containment initiative, the new packaging sported three languages of the Return Of The Jedi logo for a “one size fits all” approach. Although a “three-logo” design was created for The Power Of The Force line (as evidenced on some ‘boxed’ toys), it wasn’t carried over to the basic figure line’s card design. They continued to use the three Return Of The Jedi logos instead. Although the word “Trilogo” is found nowhere on the packaging, the term is universally adopted by all Star Wars collectors to describe this line of figures.

Today we revisit Biker Scout. The Trilogo card art is much darker than the Kenner version. See the full card art and additional notes by revisiting 1983’s RETURN OF THE JEDI Biker Scout figure HERE.

Tonight’s Visual Guide update features another The Black Series Gaming Greats figure from GameStop. Click below to check out the Scout Trooper. You can also read our full review of this figure right here.

5POA is never OK, but at least Hasbro did something good with the Celebrate The Saga multipacks, a parting gift for collectors as they close the tooling archives on these figures forever. The Galactic Empire set includes a new take on R2-Q5, a figure we haven’t seen Hasbro release is 19 years. And the included TIE Fighter Pilot and Snowtrooper sculpts are better than their current super-articulated counterparts. The rest of the set is “meh.” Are you buying these sets for your collection?

We’re rapidly approaching the final month of RDRs! But before start off May, let’s end April with three of the BEST EXCLUSIVES Hasbro has ever produced.
