I missed this entry on Sir Steve’s Guide last night. They managed to snap a photo of a print out of tomorrow’s Power Point presentation. It seems to all but confirm that long standing rumor that the Vintage Collection will wrap up this year. As long as I get a Vintage Collection Ree Yees before 2012 closes out, I won’t freak out. Click through to check out what they caught.
I thought nothing could possibly wake me from my non-front page posting slumber. But some literally big news from Volkerc at StarWarsFiguren.com did just that. Click over to check out pics of the upcoming TRU Exclusive Vintage Collection AT-AT with Episode IV box and design. Oh, and the box just so happens to have pics of the all new speeder bike!
You’ll have to scroll down a tad to get to the images.
Hasbro indicated that more Target Vintage Collection 3-Packs would be coming our way. Sandroopers provides some visual evidence. Click through to check it out. Thanks to Darth Dre for the tip to this news story in our forums.
The just released Grand Moff Tarkin is the second key Vintage Collection figure that is too much of a misfire to be forgiven (following the Hoth Luke). I say shame on Hasbro whenever I immediately have to start modifying my figures the second they come out of the package because of items that never should have passed quality control. Having said that, you probably want to modify your Grand Moff Tarkin the second you remove it from the package, and fortunately, Yakface shows you how.

Rebelscum indicates that there is another rumored Vintage Collection vehicle coming to Toys R Us. This one could hurt your bottom line. Click through to get the details.
Somehow I managed to miss this interesting tidbit on my multiple daily stops over to Rebelscum. Click through to check out which two vehicles are expected to be hitting Toys R Us stores in Vintage Collection packaging this fall. One of them might just be the top most requested OT resculpt (note the article does not mention whether or not this will be a straight re-issue or a resculpt, but here’s hoping).
If you ordered Wave 3 from Big Bad Toy Store (more commonly known as Wave 5 or the Tarkin Wave), check your e-mail inbox. Notices are being received that the product has arrived and is being processed for shipping.
Check out some in game footage from the upcoming Star Wars video game titled Star Wars: 1313.
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.
