Well, the Endor Bunker is released and comes with a cool interpretation of Nik Sant. The verdict is still out on this playset, but it’s better than we thought. (more….)

We finally have “most of” Figrin D’an And The Modal Nodes in The Vintage Collection. We won’t complain much here, but we don’t understand why they did omit a major player in the band. Is this worth the $90 it commands? (more….)

It’s that time again folks! I enjoy participating in @SWTVC’s March Madness bracket each year. You helped make these brackets by making top 25 lists of figures you wanted to see in TVC. Between Facebook, Instagram, and several other sites, almost 1000 lists were compiled, the figures ranked, and the bracket seeded. It’s time to see if you can predict how this season of voting will go (or just pick your own winner)! Click here to download the 2023 March Madness bracket. Fill it out and post it in the comments of this article. Most importantly, be sure to follow @SWTVC or join the Star Wars The Vintage Collection group on Facebook as the actual voting will take place in polls there.Â

As we continue living through the unending hellish nightmare of Diseasney Star Wars, I do my best to look for whatever glimmer of hope, ray of light, or saving grace that will keep me engaged. Sadly, it doesn’t work nearly as much as it should or could. But the other day, I unintentionally channeled the Grinch in the scene where he cracked a maniacal smile, and his heart swelled. (more….)

It’s the 40th Anniversary of Return Of The Jedi, and instead of an updated Barada, the Klatooinian we get is the repacked Klatooinian Raider released three years earlier. But we’re not bitter. (more….)

Wow! The Vintage Collection Luke Skywalker (Imperial Light Cruiser) figure is pretty dang nice. You may want to buy it to replace your Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) figure. With many new parts and a pure black costume, could this be the surprise figure of 2023? (more….)

Do you know how bad that headline is? I can’t believe I am conceding that, but it’s true. And it’s all Hasbro’s fault. OK, that’s a bit much and hyperbolic. But they aren’t without blame. Take a walk with me down memory lane, and see if you agree with my assessment that the Hasbro Star Wars brand is walking in a minefield with no escape plan. The lack of respect for the 40th Anniversary of the most toyetic Star Wars film should be clanging in your ears and burning your eyes that things are in complete chaos and disarray in Rhode Island and that perhaps they’re the wrong gatekeepers for Star Wars action figures.

It’s not much more than a repaint (with some new tooling), but the Artillery Stormtrooper is one of the highlights, so far, in 2023. See why you’ll want this one. (more….)

Kids Warehouse via Walmart.com has the TVC Nevarro Cantina marked down to $29.89. You will have to pay shipping, but still a decent markdown price if you’ve been waiting for this overpriced set to drop. Thanks to Mark for the head’s up!

In a Star Wars fansite Q&A last week the topic of the “Boba Fett Tax” was brought up a few times by several outlets. Designer Chris justified the higher price point for Boba Fett by saying that the Boba action figure has more parts and thus requires more assembly, meaning more manual labor, and that the figure also has more paint apps. All of which contributes to the higher price point. So this is the perfect time to fact check this. Does a Boba Fett action figure really have more parts that need to be assembled and more paint apps than a figure costing $13 less? Click through for more!
