A Closer Look At The Vintage Collection Nevarro Cantina

1/24/2022

Hasbro released the Vintage Collection Nevarro Cantina in January 2022 for an msrp of $52.99 through the Fan Channel. The set came bundled together with an exclusive single carded 3 3/4" Vintage Collection Imperial Death Trooper.

If you prefer to get your packaging in mint condition make sure to check out Entertainment Earth (sponsored) to see if they still have the Nevarro Cantina in-stock. 

Packaging And Assembly

The packaging design looks fantastic with the Mandalorian logo on the top and the silver border going around the box. The box art on the front and back depicts the cantina shoot-out scene from The Mandalorian tv series as seen in the first season. 

Unforutnately, the included Imperial Death Trooper figure wasn't protected enough inside the box for mint carded collectors, and the top of the card was scratched up (unfortunately this has been the case with every carded figure included with the Vintage Collection playsets so far).

The assembly is very quick, all you have to do is plug three parts together, add the cardboard window backdrop and place the bar in front. This takes less than two minutes. All which is left to do afterwards is to assemble the drink containers where you need to plug a few plastic parts together, but this shouldn't take longer than a minute or two. There are no stickers which need to be applied.

Nevarro Cantina parts

Here is a look at the bar with glasses and bottles on it. The parts are loosely placed onto the bar and can be rearranged to your liking. Some of the glassware is broken so you can use them in a shoot-out diorama scene.

Here is a look at the included Imperial Death Trooper, which now for the first time is available on a non-glossy, non-carbonized Mandalorian cardback. The figure in this specific packaging is exclusive to this set. For an overview of all 3 3/4" Death Trooper figures have a look here: Imperial Death Trooper figures in 3 3/4".

Below is a look at the in 2020 released Imperial Death Trooper figure which was on the same card as the figure in the Nevarro Cantina set, but it was released in a highly glossy and reflective packaging.

Here are some pictures of the fully assembled Vintage Collection Nevarro Cantina all set up with figures in it.

Summary

The Vintage Collection Nevarro Cantina gives you an instant diorama display piece for your shelf without having to build anything. Simply plug a few parts together and you are ready to go. The plastic parts are not the thickest and best painted pieces, but they are just in line with what Kenner/Hasbro have released in the past 40+ years for 3 3/4" figures. The price of $52.99 feels a bit steep, but when you consider that there is an exclusive figure included which by itself would set you back about $15 it feels more reasonably priced.
