Star Wars Vintage Collection

[B-Lister]

I tellya what'd get me back into buying.

new characters sculpted in vintage style!

who wouldn't want a cool Episode 3 version of Anakin with the extending lightsaber, done up with those straight arms and legs?, It'd be sweet!

[MEGOMAN]

I saw the pic and there was no mistaking that Boba was vintage-style...
the real question I was trying to ask was:"Are there ANY MORE going
to be released in that vintage style?"

In this thread waves were mentioned...including the "non-vintage" movies
in a wave.

I am very confused.

This rocket firing Fett will only be the FIFTH vintage style to be re-released
in the almost 15 years that the new stuff has been coming out.
(The first 4 being in a 4 pack of Luke Han Chewie and Vader)

The Fett is cool and all...but I'll be kinda bummed if that's IT
for the re-releases of vintage figures in the upcoming months.

Yes there will be plenty of figures done on vintage cards. Here's what is slated to be done.......

You're saying there's going to be over THIRTY vintage-styled
figures released... including characters that are from the newer trilogy?

OR are they merely new-styled figures on vintage-styled cards?

This is like the never ending never answered question!

They'll be modern sculpts on vintage style cards. This line is a continuation of the VOTC line from a few years ago.

Thanks....I wqas "pretty" sure that'd be the deal, but I was thrown
by MEGOMAN's post there. On THAT note, I'm pretty bummed there'll be no
more vintage styled figures... I hope Fett is priced right...I think the rocket is cool...but I'm just more interested in his vintage sculpt.

What do the backs look like?

[SeattleEd]

Was this the Northgate? Or Alderwood? Bellevue? Southcenter?

This means they are going to be hitting Portland now. Keeping my eyes peeled for them this week. Tax free too.

Good deal.

Hasbro distribution of shipments from China is located in Seattle so we get a lot of things ahead of schedule before they are shipped via trucks and trains to other states

[MEGOMAN]

Good to know, thank you!
