I was alerted to the climbing value of this figure by John Miko of the TVC Facebook Group. This figure seemed to hover in the twenty dollar range for a while after its release, but now it has shot into triple digit territory. Once a figure crosses the $100 plateau, it becomes inaccessible for a lot of collectors.

The VC107 - Weequay figure is too important to be out of reach for the average collector. For many of us, he's the primary Skiff Guard. He's the one who shoves Luke off the plank (at least temporarily). It's also an 096 figure. This figure really should have been re-released at the same time as the new Tatooine Skiff in 2019, but it's never too late.

Jabba's Palace related figures have never come down from the bounce they received as a result of the Barge's successful HasLab campaign. If anything, they're still going up in value. That makes this a natural re-release candidate.
