It's almost here!! The line that longtime collectors have been waiting for is hitting shelves this August, and we now have a detailed look at the first wave of action figure that will make up The Vintage Collection. Plus, add in a few vehicles and role-play toys, and you've got an idea of what's in store for you this year!

Basic Figures
This is what the line is all about, folks! The flashback to the classic Kenner line of yesteryear, mixed with a modern design style that includes more ariculation, deco, and accessories. there's no fancy gimmicks with these figures...just great-looking figures packaged on what many believe to the be the best cardback ever done.

In honor of the 30th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back, the first wave out the door is of course focuse on characters from that movie, including the following:

  • VC01: Dengar
  • VC02: Twin-Pod Cloud Car Pilot
  • VC03: Leia (Hoth Outfit)
  • VC04: Han Solo (Echo Base Outfit)
  • VC05: Luke Skywalker (Bespin Fatigues)
  • VC06: AT-AT Commander
  • VC07: See-Threepio (C-3PO)
  • VC08: Dak Ralter
  • VC09: Darth Vader (3-Piece Helmet)
  • VC10: Boba Fett (Greatest Hits)
  • VC11: 4-LOM (Greatest Hits















    Vehicles
    The Big AT-AT! The Cloud Car with hidden features! A more-accurate Snowspeeder! While these iconic vehicles will be packaged in the new "blue skies" design, there will be a Toys "R" Us exclusive version of the AT-AT that recreates the classic Kenner box. Supposedly, there are two other vehicles getting a similar exclusive treatment, but those have not yet been revealed. (But seriousl, don't you think it will be the Cloud Car and the Snowspeeder? what else could it be?)

  • Imperial AT-AT
  • Bespin Cloud Car
  • Luke Skywalker's Snowspeeder








    Role Play
    The mysterious bounty hunter that captured fandom's imagination for over three decades now has a kid-friendly electronic helmet and blaster rifle. Fun for kids of all ages!
