BREAKING:  SDCC Exclusive Is So Awesome It Will Make You Angry

We were first alerted to this announcement when it was posted by our friends at Jedi Temple Archives. The pop culture site, iO9 has revealed this year's SDCC Vintage Collection exclusive, and it's awesome. I have no idea who Dr. Aphra is, but I have to have this. io9 reports:

io9 can exclusively reveal that Hasbro is bringing a 3.75"-scale “The Vintage Collection” three-pack featuring Aphra, 0-0-0 the protocol droid, and BT-1 the astromech to San Diego, as one of its Star Wars Comic-Con exclusives this year. The set will also be available at FanExpo Canada later this year, as well as in limited quantities online after Comic-Con at the Hasbro Toy Shop.

UPDATE: Unfortunately, io9 goes on to continue:

...currently there are no plans to release either BT or Triple Zero as standalone figures outside of this set, so if you want plastic representations of some of the best droids the Star Wars galaxy currently has to offer, you’ll have to pony up $50 when the three-pack launches at San Diego Comic-Con next month.
