Blast From The Past: Just A Mistake Or Was This Figure Planned For TVC?

Here’s a blast from the past. If this was reported seven years ago, then I totally missed it. Remember when Star Wars toys came with awesome product catalogs? During The Vintage Collection/The Clone Wars [Shadow Of The Dark Side] line Hasbro made a beautiful one. It was inserted into vehicles and Battle Packs and stuff like that. Click the image below and look carefully at the figures shown. Do you notice an oddity? Was that one figure intended for The Vintage Collection at one point? Was it just a mistake and accidentally printed in the catalog? Either way, we still need it updated on a modern Kenner inspired vintage card back, so Hasbro please take note!

In case you’re new to collecting, the answer is Zuckuss. He was originally available in the Legacy Collection basic figure line and then re-released in the Star Wars [Shadow Of The Dark Side] Saga Legends line. Yet this bounty hunter is pictured as part of The Vintage Collection. In 2010, collectors whined why he wasn’t included in TVC packaging. It’s just interesting that I have only noticed this for the first time in 2017.
