Oh Yes They Are Different!

3/15/2019 The Vintage Collection Hasbro

Sammy Delco just purchased the lastest Star Wars The Vintage Collection figures in China and gave us a closer look at the head sculpts. Initially Hasbro announced during New York Comic Con 2018 that those figures would be straight re-releases, with the exception of changes to the legal statements on the back of the packaging. Well, it looks like Hasbro took the opportunity and implemented the photo real face printing technology on the figures which is a definite upgrade, and well worth upgrading to, from the previous releases.

Keep in mind that those figures will be made available through Hasbro's Fan Channel, which means you will need to order them online or through a specialty shop which can order those directly, they will not be sold at regular retail stores in the United States. 

There is quite a bit that has changed on the front of the packaging, but the placement of the accessories inside the bubbles is a bit of a surprise.  When you compare the head sculpts to the previous versions it looks day and night. 

Thank you to Sammy Delco for letting us use the images and congrats on getting your hands on those earlier than anybody else! Now check out some of the Fan Channel exclusive Vintage Collection figures on Entertainment Earth or browse The Vintage Collection on J.B.!
