Hasbro’s second Fanstream of the year revealed several new The Vintage Collection releases (and one Pipeline Reveal):

The Vintage Collection Reveals:

• Momaw Nadon (VC362) – Deluxe size card back
• Ponda Baba (VC70 re-release) with alternate card back
• Imperial Armored Commando (VC366) – Deluxe size card back

The Vintage Collection Pipeline Reveals:

• Landspeeder (retooled)

Pre-orders to launch March 5th at 1 PM Eastern. Hasbro seems to be using the ‘Deluxe’ size card back as an excuse to charge more for newly sculpted figures that would very obviously fit on a normal card back, and it’s criminal that they did it to an Original 96 card back.  

It’s time for another Hasbro Fanstream, kicking off at 11 AM Eastern.
