Mando Mondays
« on: September 22, 2020, 03:09:43 AM »
It seems like the 6" Mandalorian Figures are being repacked in vintage cardbacks and the 3.75" Mandalorian Figures are getting a "carbonized" look.

My initial thoughts are how many ways can we repackage and repaint the same thing to sell it again? Gotta admit though that Heavy Mandalorian looks great on the vintage style cardback.

I just like the coins. Lol. The carbonized TVC figures are a nightmare come true. I was really hoping they wouldn't go down that route, but they sure did. They could have repacked the Mando wave without the glitter and it would sell better, because I like most people never saw them in stores. It seems like for every new figure we get a dozen repacks. Are their profit margins so razor thin, they have to reuse everything?

I have to say this same thought crossed my mind as I saw these figures. I think we can pretty much assume anything with a regular release will see a vintage release later. I am just gonna wait on the vintage carback offering from now on.
