LET ME BE CLEAR ABOUT THIS: I say in this video that the 3 tiered figures for he HasLab 'Look' far down the process of tooling. That does not mean they are. If you want these figures you need to back the Cantina as there are no guarantees these are coming. Jeez. If fact this new behind he scenes video shows exactly how they made the prototype figures kzread.info/dash/bejne/Y6GL2rBviaqddJM.html (Amazing how great they can make them look).

Hi Tim, great video a always. My understanding for all of the figures in this set is that at the moment, no "tooling" exists yet and would only be made once the figure is a go for production. Until then, they will be 3D printed for the sculpt, cleaned up and any imperfections fixed, and then painted for promotional photography. 3D printing isn't yet suitable for mass production of action figures so thats why we still need the tooling to be made. There's a great video from Valaverse that shows most of the process.

The problem with army building is that it leads to shelf building and eventually finding a larger room for more shelving. It’s the gateway drug of collecting.

I love the gimmick of featuring the VC# that correlates to the episode. Now what are the chances you get to Episode 310 before Hasbro fills that VC#?

Hey Bossk, a couple of questions for next week. First off, I’m loving this new Leia figure so far as I got it last week. I think it could have reuse value for a ROTJ Mon Mothma, what do you think? Secondly, there have been a lot of effects pieces released in 3.75 over the years but we have never seen a stun blast effect in any line. It’s made many appearances in Star Wars especially recently with the bad batch, the acolyte, and even the sequels. Would this be an effect you would like to see and what figures could it come with?

Hi, BB! Love your Vintage Collection videos and positivity! Your takes on fandom and collecting are always enjoyably refreshing. I’m intrigued by the Cantina and wondering about potential future HasLabs from my all-time favorite movie, the original Star Wars: Sandcrawler (too niche?), Death Star Playset (too abstracted?), Tantive IV Vehicle (too big?)... Something unique like a Docking Bay lightsaber duel playset could be exciting; the only moment in the entire saga where we see Luke, Leia, Han, Chewie, Artoo, Threepio, Obi-Wan and Vader together in a single scene, plus a few stormtroopers. While it sounds great on paper, it’d most likely be absurdly massive, even if modular, and dependent on some sort of Falcon. The Cantina does check a lot of boxes, especially with previously unreleased figures. But, my hunch is, we won’t see another HasLab for the original movie anytime soon, if ever. Here’s my QFNW: With so much new and old media to pull from, what are the chances the Cantina is the only real shot collectors have at owning a Star Wars (1977) HasLab? Cheers!

Kuill is a relaly nice figure, i have spoken

Hey BB, quick QFNW… What figure(s) would you MOST like to have in-hand, and on card-back, that you are pretty sure will NEVER be produced? A fully articulated Senator Palpatine in his blue tunic from Episode I, perhaps? 😂

For the 50th Anniversary of ANH, I would love all of Red & Gold Squadron pilots single carded. Biggs, Wedge, Porkins, Red Leader, all of them. An updated Tarkin and Yularen, General DoDonna would be awesome. I would buy 2 of Vader's TIE. Although I have the TLC Yavin Base transport from Legacy, I would definitely buy another in Kenner packaging if they re-released it. That would be a great small vehicle. And that leads me to my QFNW: If you could only pick one, would you choose the Yavin base control room with tactical screens and computer displays, or a Death Star briefing room, like the whole round table with officers? And do you think they could pull off an elaborate playset like the BOBF Throne or if those would need to be a Haslab?

@verticalhilarity528hz4

Күн бұрын

Yavin Base Control Room would be amazing, or even Echo Base Command Center...anything with those super cool glowy tactical screens.

Hey Bossk! Thanks for another great video, love hearing your insights. QFNW: Not counting playsets/vehicles, what in your opinion is the best worldbuilding accessory that came with a figure? I personally love the tactical display included with the 2004 Saga Series General Rieekan, but the Tusken Warrior's massiff is also great. Cheers!

I keep the cardbacks as you can stack them so they don't take up much space. When I was a kid, I always wanted to keep instructions and cardbacks, but my mom wouldn't let me as she always made me throw away anything paper or cardboard.

Hey BB, QFNW: I was thinking about the Ghost, and we don't really have any opposition for it besides regular tie fighters. If you could add another vehicle from Rebels to tvc, would you rather it be an inquisitor's tie fighter with another inquisitor, a tie defender (which we've never had in 3.75" before), or a Mandalorian fighter with a Fenn Rau figure?

Question for next week do you think we will get Baylan Skoll and shin hati this year or next year

Good Q&A once again BB! 👍 QotW: with the Ghost and crew, do you think Hasbro will do any supporting figures? I've not seen anything myself. I'm definitely thinking Fenn Rau (as discussed in this episode), The Grand Inquisitor (Rebels version, totally different head sculpt to the one released), Agent Kallus and the wonderfully sarcastic and droll AP-5 would fill in some of the gaps in this series! Thoughts? 🤔 Thanks for your consideration.

Love how you've set up the Khetanna Tim!

Question for next week do you think we would get a reva youngling or one of the Jedi seen defending the younglings love to hear your thoughts

Hey Bossk, thanks for all you do! With the return to Tatooine theme, do you think we’ll get a re-release or re-tool of Banthas? It’s getting harder and harder to find them at good deals, and there has been so much great Bantha content in Mandalorian and Book of Boba Fett.

Great episode as always love the new vc card per episode number! Q: What must do things should hasbro always do moving forward, i will list a couple just to get the ball rolling. Deluxe figures should never be new figures repaints are acceptable but classing them as world building to include piece of the world is much better. Lightsaber and Lightsaber hilts are required for every Jedi figure.. if possible i'd also love a force hand included for jedi to be swappable. No figure should like Morgan Elsbeth ever come with no items, or just a cup, Worst case senario pack them with common imperial/rebel blasters, but world building screams out! And of course.. four packs as Character only packs, or Army building packs, don't mix and match these!

Thanks for the video and taking the time to make it.

Thank you for answering my question AND setting up an out loud laugh for the next question. Great episode!

I'd like to see the bike scout troopers with binoculars. It'd make better poses, playability, and collectability.

Hey BB! As always its great to hear your thoughts and I love when you show us how you display your collection and thanks for letting us know UK lacks wider shelves. QFNW! Is there anywhere in the internet I can keep up to date with all the upcoming pipelined figures? I'm always after some characters from older lines on secondary market but I fear buying characters that either have been pipelined or high chance to be pipelined in the near future. That's the case of C3PO for me. I really want a shinny one, but I believe Hasbro is going to update it very soon for some reason. Thanks BB! May the Force be with you!

hey Bossk, Not a question, but I figured you may be interested in a recent SandCrawler Scale Model video on Adam Savage's TESTED channel. Looks close to a TVC Haslab size/scale if ever produced. Uploaded a couple of weeks ago (Title: "Epic Star Wars Sandcrawler Scale Model Build"). Close to when the Cantina was announced. Gives an indication how detailed the Vehicle could be with interesting features.

Hey Bossk, great video as always. QFNW: Just looking at how your currently display your TVC collection. Really like how you’ve got it all laid out. With the Haslab being a playset my question is, what is your favourite existing playset in TVC? I’ve got the Nevarro Cantina, Tantive IV and Boba’s (Jabba’s) Throne Room. The Throne Room probably just takes it for me. How about you? Do you have a favourite? And do you have any playsets you would like to see in the future?

Great video as always, Tim! Tier characters, like the three base figures, look great but they are prototypes. The steel tooling molds that are so expensive do not exist yet. Yes, the design and sculpting work is far along. But tooling is the hard steel pieces used to actually manufacture the toys. The steel tooling is what is super expensive these days and why we see so much reuse and repaints. Have a wonderful week!

yep check my pinned comment.

Hey Bossk QFNW: What do you think about the Hasbro making the Tonnika Sisters being Haslab exclusive and basically pay walled behind a very expensive play set ? I am asking because for years collectors were asking these figures and voted in every possible poll to have them in TVC. Now for me and for many people this is a very expensive set that I can not afford at the moment. I think that these kind of decisions are weakening the community. Because next time when people are are going to vote for a figure they will be thinking “Will this be also a exclusive and paywalled”. I am sure that this set made a lot of OT collectors happy but also made a lot of other collectors sad, that wants this set but just can not afford. I believe we should bot encourage Hasbro to paywall figures that vast majority of collectors want. Maybe to make every one happy Hasbro can make a Haslab just for these figures in a more reasonable price. This would also be great for both carded and loose collectors. Thank you for your hard work for community…

14:15 my thoughts exactly on the retro collection. They keep making it so there are obviously buyers for it. Also I do think it’s odd seeing new media in the retro, like I know it’s the style not specifically the characters but still to me odd.

Thank you for answering my question dude. I'd love to see an ESB boba fully kitted out.

Great chat, many interesting questions! Definitely 3PO needs an urgent update. Shiner but a bit dirty, taller and without all those pieces falling apart every time you move it around. Personally I expect a new Landspeeder and a Dewack in this Return to Tatooine / ANH era. And I pray for a new Tarkin. My question for next week. Why Hasbro put so less effort and love for the 40th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back? We just received the Carbon Freezing Chamber, Slave I (I mean Sprayfighter 😅) and some repacked figures. No Snowtroopers, no more Bespin sets, no Hoth sets or vehicles, no Dagobah, etc... Do you think that is any plan to return to TESB? Thanks and cheers!

I'd love to see a Mon Mothma from Andor figure.

we need a Ferrix worker in their red padded outfit and gloves

Found ezra and Karen with zeb this week. Can't believe I had Vader before you!

I just don't have the space for stuff like the Cantina set. *sigh. Possibly the only the like this I'd ever spring for is if Haslabs did an Executor bridge set or Death Star overbridge.

Thanks for answering my question Bossk!

We need Luthen Rael! Dedra Meero would be great but we seriously need Luthen.

Hey bossk first thank you for all you do for the community your my favorite channel. Question for next week. Let's say that the cantina or any other haslab projects in the future what happens say if they are a hundred short of 8 thousand backers or anything like that would hasbro still not make the project? Is there a certain amount that hasbro would say ok we are only this amount short we can still do the project. Again love your channel keep up the great work Dennis

A new X-Wing sounds great! Some features besides a steady set of wings (re-use Poe Dameron’s X wing) could be a more movie accurate paint job (Dagobah crash scene), yellow ladder the pilots always use, a fuel port for refueling (Yavin base scenes), and more detail and paint in the cockpit, especially the targeting computer that the pilots use in the trench run (A New Hope)!

Hi Bossk, greetings from Guatemala 🇬🇹. Great channel! Because of budget and space, I decided a few years ago to only buy the VC figures that were released in the original run of vintage figures. My intention is to display the carded VC figure with its loose vintage counterpart next to it. Do you think Hasbro will ever finish releasing the original 96 carded figures plus Blue Snag & Sy Snoodles Max Rebo band?

Fantastic episode as always mate.

Question for next week.What do you think about Hasbro?Making a line of 5P.A figures and having the retro collection both taking from the vintage collections budget

Hey Tim. As an owner of the Lego Cantina and now as a backer of the vintage collection cantina…who did it better? Which one nailed it best?

omg new x-wing would be an amazing idea! I am an x-wing pilot collector first and foremost so that would be a ream.

What's up BB. Question for next week. Lego released new photo's of Star Wars Ahsoka Tano's Duel on Peridea 75385, a new Ahsoka, new face for Mogan and a Peridea Ezra. Do you think we'll see a new version of TVC Peridea Ezra because of this new set. Love the Channel. 3.75" 4life!!

Hey Bossk QWNK do you think Star Wars is for everyone ? 😅

Collector since 1978. I buy all of the new media Retro Collection figures. I don't bother with the OT reruns as I've owned most of them in the past. My brother in law and one of my friends (same age) are all in on Retro.

Kuill, you can never have too many Ugnaughts for world building. Even if you're not into non-OT he could still be a HVAC guy on Bespin.

Hey Bossk Great Video as always. I agree with you about the Retro Collection figures. I don't understand why they are making versions of them from the New Media. Complete the Original 96! I think that there will Always be a demand for those. As far as the Andor figures for TVC, I think many of the Rogue One figures will be re-released in Andor Card backs.

9:20 I would not trust that my fear would be coming home and It’s on the floor in pieces..

Another great video as always, Bossk! QFNW: With the Blurrg confirmed in the pipeline for the Vintage Collection, it got me thinking that we haven’t seen very many creatures and megafauna in TVC as of late. So what other creatures from the Star Wars galaxy would you like to see Hasbro take a shot at for TVC? For me, I think the one I’d like to see the most (especially with the 20th anniversary of Revenge of the Sith next year) would be Boga; with a ton of articulation and maybe even a figure of Obi-Wan included with her. I also wouldn’t mind seeing a new Dewback (particularly with the whole “return to Tatooine” theme that Hasbro has going on currently) or even the Geonosian Arena beasts. Cheers and looking forward to seeing what comments and questions you’ll be answering next Sunday!

QFNW: We need a new AT-AT Driver in TVC and the closest thing we've gotten to a super-articulated Driver is the Legacy figure from 2009. Unfortunately, that figure is not great and giving OT troopers removable helmets with Clone heads underneath is something that I hope NEVER makes a comeback in any Star Wars line. So, do you believe that figure can be retooled with a new, non-removable helmet to be a passable TVC release or would it be better for Hasbro to just start over from scratch and give us a completely new AT-AT Driver with fully updated articulation?

Great video as always. Fingers crossed by this time next week we are well past the 8k and close to the 17k. Be that said if we were close say 16k so you think Hasbro would add a few days like they did with the striker to get fully funded? I really want Arleil (who’s more bat not a wolf) Also sorry about adding the OT characters to my choices and having you pick none OT take Amanaman out and throw in Dr. Mandible or hell the power ranger scooter gang😂.

Hello there, BB. Thank you for keeping me extremely well-entertained on KZread. QFNW. After much research that I did, I have ultimately learned there is currently just one unannounced Star Wars figure left before Hasbro has made new versions of every figure Kenner made between 1977 and 1985. And that figure is Sim Aloo, the Imperial Dignitary. What percent chance do you think there is that the circle will be complete? Thank you in advance.

Could we get TVC figures from Revenge of the Sith or Empire Strikes Back?

I'd like a Haslab of a Bespin playset. Not diorama, but actual Kenner esq playset since we've never gotten a proper one.

Hey BB love the Channel and content, Question for next week and it's about the Retro Collection you mentioned last week that the Retro Collection should concentrate on the Original Trilogy and the Original 96... do you feel that the Retro Collection should just do a release of the Original 96 and then do some other character we never got in the original line do you feel that this is an opportunity missed or do you think Hasbro can corse correct and get the Retro Collection right???? Keep up the great work 👍

Hey bossk question for next weeks episode, do you think we could get clone figures in their kamino training armor like in a four pack or just a solo car in the future

Hey bossk love the content keep it up, Q for next week what Cone helmet do you think should be next, either a Legion clone?

Hello there, love your channel, question for next week. Kind of an old subject but, what was your first thoughts when hasbro cancelled the 3.75 line? Especially when they did it right before rise of Skywalker. Considering you're a 3.75 fan I was curious.

QFNW: What are the chances we get Fan Favorite figure again? #backthebar

what do you think of hasbro making a 2-pack of malak and the sith apprentice version of bastila? they could use a plastic overlay for the robe so then the jedi version with a different overlay could be released on its own card, thus re-using the tooling for almost the whole figure. i couldnt save her in my playthrough of kotor

I believe Hasbro really muddied the waters and started mass confusion with the future of Haslab figures by offering the extra Ghost figures to the general public (different cardback), but the same figure nontheless.

Definitely could've done with more never released kenner figures in the retro line. Got to go to a local comic con and toy fair in my home town today got see the late 80s bat mobile and MC queen from cars and some starwars characters stormtrooper clone trooper with the biker scout style helmet with red markings and sabine wren and a sith style Inc picked up 3 old starwars carded figures episode 1 Adi Gallia i and sneak peak jango fett and 30th anniversary concept vader £30 all 3

I’d be massively surprised if the figures are tooled. It’s the reason it’s crowdfunded. Tooling money is the big spend they wait on till they are sure of something. I think they are just very expensive prototypes to be camera worthy. The cantina itself looks finished in their updated video with modular shelves but that definitely isn’t tooled

Hasbro should even make a deluxe Darth Vader with Endor funeral pyre.

I agree!

The "tooling" for figures is not made just because they made a prototype to show off at the backing stage. Just in the same way the tooling for the cantina itself or for any previous haslab has already been done. Obviously. The versions you see advertised - and this goes for ALL Haslabs - are prototypes. We've already seen how the actual Ghost toy is going to differ slightly from the finished product because it was just a prototype, not the final version. Watch hasbro's recent video and you'll see at least partly how the prototype figures were created. They're not pre-tooled before they back, that would make no sense from Hasbro's perspective.

Hey BB, QFNW: With the incoming Haslab Cantina fans will have plenty of options of what iteration of figures they want to display within it (Original Kenner, Power of the Force, etc.) My question comes from the perspective of someone wanting to display Retro figures within it. I know you are not a big Retro fan, but what would be the dream wave of reissues / any new Kenner style figures? We already have all the mains re-released and this could be almost exclusively Cantina. Reissues of Hammerhead, Walrusman, Greedo, and Snaggletooth are fairly easy to imagine. In terms of a never before made Kenner figure you could do everyone from Wuhur, the good Doctor Evazan, to any of our favorite Bith Band. Could even sneak in a Kenner style sandtrooper or Garindan. Ideally this would be a wave, but Hasbro seems to be stuck on doing the boxes so we would be limited to 6 figures.

OK, I guess I’m one that watches and didn’t subscribe so I did!

Retro is awesome, new figures in that style are even more awesome. Growing the “Kenner” style is only slightly below TVC for me. In many ways Retro hits those carded vibes better than TVC does, except for the faux wear-and-tear markings. 5 POA Kenner is the source for all of this hobby.

If C-3PO is vac-metalized and has no prequel gimmicks, I will gladly buy it. If it's more of the same, absolutely not. And no, I will not be supporting the cantina. Mostly because I know that people will be wanting some of the included figures to be in the main line and hasblo will lose more customers that way. At this point, I actually celebrate their mistakes.

Im an otc guy but this cantina is so heard to display and we wont get all teirs and thats not happening. This will be the worst selling haslab

I'd say the modular nature of it makes it the easiest Haslab to display.

Hi Bossk. Always look forward to your Sunday videos! QFNW... I'm trying to keep this short... Is it safe to say that Hasbro really has no control over what figures and vehicles are produced? My assumption is that Lucasfilm decides what they want as far as toys go, and that Hasbro has little input into what they actually produce. No question that there are meetings and Hasbro, I'm sure, has plenty of input from fans, customers, and investors for what they want and inform Lucasfilm, but ultimately it will come down to what Lucasfilm wants, correct? We all know they (Lucasfilm/Disney) would be pushing toys from all the non George Lucas Star Wars that is being produced, but do you think those shows & movies are popular enough to keep doing that? I don't know what the sales are like for Hasbro, but I believe producing figures like (referencing @karlwillson22 from last week's question) the Mandalorian Judge is forced on them when they might actually want to produced more well known, well liked OT and PT figures? Does Hasbro get a bad rap? Not for their plastic! The plastic they use sucks!! Looking forward to next week's show!
