That selfies thing is hilarious. Would be tempted if I could get Palps on the throne for it.

I wonder if you would be able to pop the heads off those the same way you can with other figures. If so, it probably wouldn’t be hard to take your custom head and swap it onto any other 6-inch figure.

My comic shop got in these Lalah Sune figures and I almost got one, but then I realized that the box didn't have any pictures of what the figure looked like from behind, and I decided not to risk it.



a quick google suggests you're probably okay.

well, with the Ahsoka and Grogu I just bought, I'm officially collecting the Vintage Collection now.

Which is the better Rey to get, TFA or TLJ?

TLJ for sure but she’s way out of stock by now so your best bet is rise of skywalker

That is mine, yes. But I wish people would use the fully completed suit photo and not this one where it's just the armor over the mannequin form without the undersuit and forearm armor.

How many of their vehicle previews have ever actually happened? Rey's speeder never came out. Mando's speeder never came out.

The Scout trooper (Baby Yoda puncher) one is actually happening, and I think there's an Anakin with those flying pogo stick things.

They showed off a 1/6 scale Falcon cockpit that they said would be coming (and later at a convention a full 1/6 Falcon) but it never made it to production.

The cockpit was massive.

The whole Falcon was only meant as a con showpiece.

There are people on the Replica Prop Forum who have (at least attempted to) recreate the Falcon cockpit 1:1 in their houses.

The cockpit was the thing they were saying they would sell (it would be giant but I've seen prop replica things that took up more space) but the 1/6 Falcon was a big dick waiving display piece for a convention.





Oh that's right they also said they were making a 1/6 TIE Fighter as well.

Man I was just curious the other day looking up some of the first run Vintage Collection toys I have and wow, some have really taken off. I got this cool Yoda from Canada with the ESB picture instead of the Attack of the Clones and it's gone for ~$800 on ebay recently. Crazy stuff

I went to a con last year and bought two big bins of loose circa 2005-2011ish 3.75” figures for $110 off a guy who just wanted them gone. After keeping the couple dozen I wanted, I sold the rest on eBay that summer and made around ~$2800 after fees and shipping.

TVC collectors are crazy. Hard to blame them though, that line has easily the best selection of characters.

I wonder how much my huge collection of 3 3/4s would have been worth if I hadn't given away and donated most of it. I had a ton of characters, troopers and exclusives from between Revenge of the Sith and when the Clone Wars cartoon movie came out.

That’s the real sweet spot for the line too. No new movies to draw from, only deep cuts and copious amounts of troopers.

Lots of vehicles and poo poo too. I had the big Millennium Falcon and the AT-AT at the end at least with tons of other ones I remember having along the way. I think the bulk of what I had left in the end went to a child relative of one of my friends so hopefully they had fun with it all.

Feels good to be more or less “caught up,” preorders aside. Though there are still a couple of figures I want. Notably the Dewback and Tauntaun. I kind of want the Snowspeeder, but mostly for the exclusive Dak Ralter figure.

Also holding out for an updated Jango Fett because gently caress the old one is bad.
