Which retro figures did they have out of interest?

The ones from the Mandalorian wave(s)

 

[lejackal]

Thanks for the heads up but looks like they've sold out, this is all I'm seeing

Sorry, those are the ones they have/had - were you after specific ones?

 

[edd_jedi]

Ah sorry I thought you meant the vintage retro re-releases. Still good prices though

 

[Palifan]

That all makes sense now and yes, good prices

 

[monkey_roo]

Think this goes up on Hasbro Pulse today.
Maybe the retro Box does as well...

Hasbro Pulse

 

[lejackal]

Thanks. Still no Yak from the looks of it

Ouch - how is the VC one £20 more that the BS one that is coming out?
I have ordered as I want to have a complete 40th set of stuff (and then plan on cutting back massively on collecting as this seems a good place to leave it) - Also I am hunting a few Transformers - but that's another story...

This?

 

[monkey_roo]

I wish I could afford that Grimlock - £1300..... It looks amazing but a little out of my league I'm afraid

 

[lejackal]

Nonsense, you spend that on shipping some weeks

 

[monkey_roo]

Ummm - fair point - but I'll stick with the £50 G1 figure I just bought for now

 

[Mini99]

Where from?

Only available from Hasbro Pulse.

Got to be said, for 90 quid I could probably get a boxed vintage one

Defiantly an un boxed one.
I only want the Crumb and 8D8 as they are carded, I don't want the rest.

 

[monkey_roo]

Drop the mike - least surprising HasLab project ever - but I'm in...

[Mini99]

All the pre orders now live - 10:00 - at SAF
I've only orderd Thrawn.
Hands up who's ordering the Life Day Chewy…

 

[lejackal]

Well I've ordered my 12 quid Yak Face - anyone want the rest of the box

 

[monkey_roo]

Jeees that Retro Box is expensive - I don't recall the others being 99? Anyway ordered (because I'm a sucker). Actually I rather suspect after the Ashoka TVC wave is done I will only get the Retro figures moving forward - we will see.

It was £74 on Hasbro, where has it at 99?

 

[monkey_roo]

IDT - missed it on Hasbro as I was out - sucks....

 

[lejackal]

I mean I'll be selling all of mine bar Yak probably but I know you'll want him

 

[monkey_roo]

Ha - win some lose some - given how much I spend on toys a few quid here really doesn't touch the sides - but it does once again raise one of the main sucky realities of modern collecting - it's all about the clicks. I know it's the 21C and all that, but it is dull and annoying.

 

[monkey_roo]

Latest Retro collections sets are up for pre-order.

 

[monkey_roo]

Not sure where to post this one but WTF.... https://hasbropulse.com/products/star-wars-the-vintage-collection-chewbacca

I am sure some people will want this figure - no idea who, but for me, the fact it even exists is a perfect example of Hasbro's management of the SW IP going down the toilet.....

I can only see completists wanting this figure.
A total waste of plastic in my opinion.

 

[monkey_roo]

HasbroPulse has this: https://uk.hasbropulse.com/products/star-wars-the-vintage-collection-sabine-wren-and-chopper-c1-10p
I thought it was meant for that silly exclusive members thing, but boring normal customers seem to be able to order

 

[kabuchi7]

I'm not impressed with the latest batch of pre-orders. I usually pre-order all the TVC but not this year, do we seriously need ANOTHER mando and Grogu. The only figure i have is Rex.
