Tag Archives: The Saga Collection

Since The Legacy Collection, Jedi Temple Archives has made consistent noise about the lack of updated characters from The Original Trilogy Collection and The Saga Collection “Vintage” lines. In response, Hasbro has always felt that the figures in these lines are generally good, and while some could use updating, they hold up well. (more….)

To understand The Vintage Collection’s present is to respect its history. If you’re relatively new to collecting, you’ve quickly figured out that The Vintage Collection is Hasbro’s most popular 3.75″ super-articulated basic figure line ever produced. And many collectors will tell that Hasbro no longer treats it with the tender loving care it deserves. (Opinions vary greatly on that sentiment.) However, lovers of this line became saddened when Hasbro temporarily retired the line in 2013 as it paved the way for The Black Series 6″ line. Collectors waited for a grueling half-decade before we saw the line’s return. You already know the rest of that story. But do you know how we got here the first time? Please join us in discovering The Pathway To The Vintage Collection on the 10th Anniversary of the original line launch!
