Topic: Star Wars Vintage Collection 2010

[Clonehead]

We have heard for a little while now that a new line of figures called the "Vintage Collection" will be introduced this year and the good folks at jedinews.co.uk have been given the first pics of 4 new figures from this line that is said to be hitting shelves in August. What better way to celebrate the 30th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back than the release of these new sculpt figures.

Thank you, Jedinews, for these shots.

Bespin Luke


Hoth Leia


Dengar


General Veers


All of these look great to me but as I was real close to picking up a comic pack Dengar to round out my collection of ESB bounty hunters, I will definitely be waiting for the new Dengar fig. And that Veers, now that's what I am talking about! I may have to pick up multiples of him, for me and Tamer.LOL

I am eargery awaiting more Vintage re-releases,   I love the retro look seeing those cards on the pegs brings back good memories.  I would love to see all the old card designs reissued. However I woul;d like to see more "new Old figs" before rehashes, IE bespin Luke,   Yes the first vintage re-relase stunk but  more "new" old figs   before duplicates,  Hopefully they will put it on the alternate pic card

definatly liking that dengar

I'm hoping to cut back on spending for the majority of this year. I've gone nuts these past few weeks ordering tons of Legacy & Clone Wars figures online.
If this is the way things are gonna be, I'll be able to cut back dramatically. I'm only interested in Dengar & Veers. So if Hasbro can churn out a wave with 2 figures I like & 2 that I dislike, it should save me a wad of cash this year!

Thanks for the fp news story Clint so I could find this quick like. Wow. Just wow. They finally got a good face sculpt of Luke! That Veers looks sweet although I think the Saga 2 face sculpt was more realistic, but I do like it too. Wow, I like all of these! Anyone notice we don't see any armored forms? Yet? I bet we will see a few more. I hope all of em are TESB!

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!  Man, I've been waiting for a new Bespin Luke since that VSTC atrocity a couple years back.   This one looks to be a marked improvement.

All four  look really cool!

[Cimter]

I want the four but I am a little disappointed with Hasbro why couldn't they have done this when they released the original Bespin Luke and General Veers, wasn't it only a couple of years ago we got these 2, so I am a little miffed at that part of the news.

However what makes up for it is we are getting a new Dengar and Hoth Leia so I am happy.

Instead of the Bespin Luke and General Veers - they could have done Bespin Han Solo and Captain Piett.

YES! Finally a good looking Dengar! Ive NEEDED one since i started collecting!

[clonepilot9004]

Thats not veers, its definitely a generic AT-AT Commander. The rank badge is a commander badge and the face sculpt is not of Veers (The SAGA version was very well sculpted). 

[Phatty]

The sad thing is that they'll probably be double the price of a regular figure, and the only one I have even the slightest interest in is Veers.  And that's only so he can command my new BAT-AT when it hits.

[Commander_Kurgan]

They all look great and have a lot of customizing potential.
I hope that they won't be too expensive, though.

[Luke Sprywalker]

All of these look great to me. It looks like Luke will have ball jointed hips!

[McMetal]

Meh, I would have been more interested to see the new style cardbacks than the actual figs.

These 4 strike me as typical TLC swag...great articulation and detailing, but the sculpts are an abomination. Nice Popeye arms on the Veers. None of them look remotely like the characters from the films, IMO.

Where are all the pics of new Clone Wars merch for 2010?

[Tamer]

I too would have like to have seen the cardbacks, but we know toyfair will be when the real info. hits. I did notice it was an at-at commander and not labeled as Veers. I too wonder about the flair on the forearms giving him a popeye look. I am sure he will look good carded and remember Devin can fix anything Hasbro messes up as far as articulation services! As for the faces, I thought the same thing about Leia, but I have seen so many screwed up Lukes that this seemed to be an improvement over previous versions.
