Odd Vintage Collection Listings At Dorkside Toys

Update: As pointed out by resident know-it-all, CJ, the description (in 50% font) says:

Archived Listing for Informational Purposes Only - ITEM NOT FOR SALE

Update 2: Throwing more cold water on what is now officially a NON story (albeit a bizarre one), Chaz The Guru posted this email correspondence with Dorkside's customer support:



Move along.


If you scroll to the bottom of Dorkside Toys' 3.75" Star Wars page, you will notice some odd entries. All of The Vintage Collection wave one is listed. But it's not wave 1 from last year's Wookiee Wednesday. It's wave one from 2010! You cannot add the items to your cart. You will get an "out of stock" message. Furthermore, if you click through on any given listing, it says "Not Available."

Two of the wave one figures will be available via the "fan channel" re-releases (specifically Hoth Leia and Echo Base Han), but DST is clearly listing the entire wave. The 2010 Rocket Firing Fett starburst is also shown on some of the cards. One last thing to note is that each of the listings is designated "ARCHIVED".

While the simplest answer is that this is a mistake, one has to wonder if an "archive" line is being planned for the Vintage Collection.
