It’s Almost 2020 And Target Has Restocked 2018 Wave One

Here's your Bantha Skull physics lesson for today. We have the perception that time is linear, but that's just a byproduct of our relatively short temporal scale. In reality, time is a continuous curve. If you travel far enough along the time axis, you will eventually end up back at the start. You will end up back at the Big Bang. And by "Big Bang", of course we mean Wookiee Weekend 2018 when TVC was re-relaunched. It is that unstoppable force from which you can never escape in an 80's slasher movie. It is Jason Vorhees plus Michael Myers squared.
Our own Darth Dre found that out this morning as he walked into his local Target. The 2019 Force Friday TVC product had sold through, and he had the promise of a fresh restock from Target's inventory pipeline. Perhaps he would find the Shadow Stormtrooper wave which may have included the scarce VC164 Princess Leia variant. But alas, his collecting antagonist was back from the dead, and he found figures from 2018's first wave (likely the remnants of a case in the store room). How much of this wave was produced?!?
TVC 2.0 coulda been somebody. It coulda been a contender.
