We’re almost all caught up on all things Vintage Collection.  Today we review the third of Kmart’s Special Action Figure sets, the Ewok Catapult.

I bet you never saw this one coming.  After yesterday’s review of the Imperial Scanning Crew, here’s today’s review of the less impressive Death Star Scanning screw.

Now that Toy Fair is in our rear view, we can get back to the reviews. The better half of the K-Mart Scanning Crew sets, the Imperial Scanning Crew, is our next subject.

This gallery is big.  Maybe not 6000 SUX big, but it’s big.  Check out the Toys R Us exclusive Vintage Collection Republic Gunship.

You know you need to kill your last few minutes of work before the weekend, so check out 34 pics of the Toys R Us exclusive Vintage Collection X-Wing.

It was a late night / early morning, but 48 images of the Vintage Collection Slave I are here.  While I did not write the review on the following page, I echo the sentiments (save for being able to lock the canopy in the up position).  At times, I felt like Tom Hanks in Big playing with the Skyscraper Transformer.

I’d better have all the parts.  That’s all I can say.

Update:  I have all the parts.

Did you ever wonder what a ranking list of the best figures from The Vintage Collection would look like? Wonder no more. We have been invited by Jedi Temple Archives to be part of the panel for their “A Digested Look at The Vintage Collection” special report alongside many other fan sites to rank what figures from this collection are the absolute cream of the crop. We also are joined by three special guests from the Hasbro Star Wars team which makes this an unprecedented event. See what figures made the final ranking and compare the panel’s picks and how they differ next to the Hasbro team’s choices. The Special Report also gives warm tribute to The Vintage Collection in a general retrospective manner. There are even some special “gifts” for readers to take away from it.

Our friends at Jedi Temple Archives have teased something as coming soon (8 AM tomorrow morning).  Based on the font selected, I’d have to guess it’s Vintage Collection related which is how I’ve categorized this,

The Vintage Collection Slave I is now listed on Amazon for $70.36 down from $99.99.  If you didn’t order before, now is the time.  If you’re like me and pre-ordered, you need to check your order status.  In a first for me on Amazon, my pre-order price did not automatically adjust in accordance with their pre-order price guarantee.  But after a polite two minute chat with Amazon customer service, I received a price adjustment.

Update: Now it’s down to a normal American price of $69.99.

Volkerc continues to break news left and right.  I honestly forgot this was coming in the Vintage Collection.  This is getting expensive.

In case you missed it over there to the right, we recently played catch up on the on-line wave for the Vintage Colleciton.  Nothing you have seen at all the other site, but if you wanted to see our take on these figures, click the thumbnails below:

Yup Volkerc.  Again.  Click through to check out pics of the two Imperial Scanning crew 2 packs coming to a K-Mart store nowhere near you (if you live in a civilized area).

The Vintage Collection Slave I is also available for pre-order.

Amazon.com has the exclusive Vintage Collection Tie Interceptor available for an August 15th pre-order.
