The Targets around here haven’t seen a lick past the Phantom Menace wave and it’s been nothing since the Deleted Scene wave for Walmart. It appears brick and mortar is about to fall even further behind. The Tarkin wave is up for sale on Ebay.
We’ve just seen the assortment for what Hasbro is calling Wave 4. But in a familiar trend, we seem to have skipped over a few numbers in the collection.
Hot damn! Not going to make it to San Diego comic con? No worries. Big Bad Toy Store has you covered. You can pre-order the “Lost Line” cards by clicking here.
They also have the assortment available by the case which I assume is the standard Vintage Collection cards. Here is the link for the case pre-order.
Update: Reading is fundamental. The case assortment clearly shows that the case is half regular VC cards and half “blue” cards. It looks like these will be making it to regular retail. Also, this assortment appears to be jumping over the case with Nien Nunb, Emperor’s Royal Guard and the WM Discover the Force exclusive figure re-releases on VC cards.
Sandtoopers has another scoop with the Target exclusive Darth Maul Returns battlepack form the Clone Wars line. It contains a first ever Night Sister figure. Click over to check it out.
Sandtroopers scores another set of preview images. The “Lost Line” SDCC figures will also becoming in the regular “retail” Vintage Collection. Here’s a look at how three of those figures will look on Vintage Collection cards. Fans of true vintage card variants will be delighted on one of them! Click through to check out VC110 Shock Trooper, VC112 Sandtrooper and VC113 Darth Vader (Emperor’s Wrath).
Our own moderator, Randy_S, bought the Darth Malgus and the Imperial Navy Commander at his local Target. So it looks like Target does plan to keep selling Star Wars figures after all.
We resume our photo archiving duties with Aayla Secura. We’ve been teased with this figure since Celebration V. Click through to check out the Twi’lek Jedi at last.

Pretty cool. Sandtroopers has preview pics of the up coming San Diego Comic Con “Lost Line” exclusive. These figures will all be part of the standard Vintage Collection, but they will be available on these exclusive card backs in a set at SDCC. This is one of the early Kenner designs that was ultimately rejected. Head over to check out what might have been.
Hasbro Toy Shop has the Malgus wave available for pre-order Click through to get yours. Just remember Malgus is being carried forward into at least one future assortment (the Grand Moff Tarkin wave), so if you don’t want to get stuck with 7 Phantom Menace carry forwards, this might not be for you. The only figure in this assortment that does not have a confirmed future release (yet) is the Imperial Navy Commander.
Update: Out of stock
We’re closing in on a completed prisoner skiff with Kithaba. Once the upcoming Weequay Hunter is released, we’re only awaiting Vedain and Velken Tezeri. Until the ensemble is complete, click through to check out Kithaba.

The third wave of 2012 brings us another first. It contains the first realistic figure based on a character from the Cartoon Network Clone Wars Series. With that we have added the Clone Wars version of Anakin Skywalker to our archive. Check him out.
