Great question from Jasmine Martinez! 👌 I'm absolutely all in on Hasbro doing Admiral Trench. He will feature very highly in my top 25 list this year, as he has done for the last previous years. Trench was one of the most significant bad guys in the Clone Wars. Plus he is visually great, let's build up some steam for him! 🙏
Happy Sunday, Bossk! QFNW, with backers now receiving their Ghosts, and your ranking of best TVC figures of 2024, have you thought of doing a Worst to First for TVC vehicles? I've gone back through most of your past videos and I don't recall finding a Worst to First vehicle edition. Great content, as always. Cheers!
Thanks for answering my question! Me and my bf are huge fans and we love watching your videos together as he is an avid collector. I wont give up on admiral trench haha
I think if you have the time a live stream of yourself and JMiko and Tyler or any (or all) of the SWTVC guys would be very enjoyable. Maybe even Victoria join as well. I am a little surprised at how excited I am for MM25. Great video again.
Happy New Year, Tim! I hope your 2025 is a great year. A couple questions for next week. If you could have a Star Wars figure of yourself, what kind of figure would it be? Like a Jedi, smuggler, Storm Trooper, Mandalorian or anything else. Also, which line or lines would you want your figure to be in?
Hasbro continues to leave $$$ on the table by not making the 4 pack army builders on a consistent basis. They admittedly need to be mindful of the retail cost of them, but not having at least one troop builder 4-pack per quarter seems to be a foolish decision.
When will the pipelined return to tatooine figures and/or next TVC wave be revealed and up for purchase. This question also doubles as what will the timing be for the TVC releases this year.
While it's not the same thing, there are blind box droids in Galaxy's Edge. They have at least two different waves at this point. And since they're Build A Droids, all the parts are interchangeable.
While I don’t love the idea I’d definitely buy Astromech Droid Blind Bags. They could do it like Lego does where they have a little QR code on the back that you can scan to tell you what’s inside. More Astromech droids is always a good thing in my books.
@ that’s true but when they switched from the plastic bag to a recyclable cardboard box adding the QR codes was the way they devised to stop people from just tearing open shelves worth of Lego blind boxes to get the one they wanted.
Hi BB, QFNW. Last week you displayed the TVC Emperor's Royal Guard on your video. Why do you think only the TVC card had a different photo of the character as opposed to the Retro Collection and Black Series 40th anniversary figures getting the same photo as the Kenner Royal Guard figure from 1983? Could this be a candidate for re-issue with the traditional cardback photo? Thanks for all you do for the community!
Great episode, Bossk! Question for next week: with the Heir to the Empire 3-pack coming out, do you think Hasbro will be more open to introducing more Legends characters into TVC if it sells well?
When it comes to figures like Endor trooper, especially considering they are army builder repeat buys and head sculpt variations, they need to be all new, w kit bashes endor soldier with incorrect parts cobbled together would be a nightmare. Using existing parts should only happen where it’s accurate to do so. Accuracy matters in TVC
Hey BB, great video, as always! Qfnw: I just bought my first house and I'm in need of a way to relocate my collection. I'm an exclusive opener and don't want to just throw everything in a tub unorganized. What are some options to help keep loose figures and their accessories organized for a big move?
do you think we wont get Arliel Shous the wolf man from the cantina , if they do Brutus from the skeleton crew, will that skeleton crew character cheat us out of getting the wolfman from the cantina
QNFW: How long do you think a collector should collect? I haven't backed a Haslab (yet) however I would like to get one in the future, I am a collector who doesn't collect everything, ships that I like here or there, and figures from series I like. Eventually will come a point where I consider the space I have, and the money invested. I hope to collect for a few more years however not everything lasts forever. Getting rid of things isn't a good feeling in my opinion, and there are things that you can't give up because of personal value, eventually it will have to stop however when is it enough? (Sorry for the serious question).
Amazon AU listed Savage at a lower price on launch (they do mess up sometimes similar happened with Malgus) so i have two coming at the price of one! But on TVC.. Savage in deluxe i want everyone to be clear, if we get Savage as a deluxe we need his replacement arm and that giant AXE! It is a shame though he is shirtless when he first appears but the armoured look is superior.. But a replacement arm.. is that something Hasbro would even do? they really should its the only way he'd be considered deluxe to me.
Hey BB, QFNW: In the past month I've gotten 15 figures from this year at clearance prices ($9-$12), mostly from season 3 of the Mandalorian. Do you think the lukewarm reception for a lot of figures this year will cause Hasbro to back off of new media any?
I had them all....but as I dont have space display them all I have been slowly selling some. All of the ones I no longer have carded I would like a loose version. I think I am probably missing 20 or so now.
Hello BB QFNW in your opinion between these three EU characters, Kyle Katarn, Mara Jade, or Darth Malak, which one do you think is the MOST likely to appear in TVC in the near future?
Hey bossk with Andor S2 coming do you think we will get an Amazon or EE single carded 4pk? And do you think we will get only S2 figs or split the 2 figs from S2 and 2 from S1?
I really do hate the whole blind bag/box fad. With as expensive as toys are becoming, I only want to spend my money if I know 100% what I’m getting beforehand. There’s no fun in spending $15-$20 to be “surprised” by a toy I don’t want.
Don't want swappable heads for Anakin's Spirit. If they do it, it needs to be 2 versions. If Hayden is on the cardback, it's a "Hell No" from me! I will not buy it! The original 96'r needs to be represented! An updated filmout cardback is fine, but it needs to be Sebastian for my $$'s!

The vintage jumpsuited rebel commando was a very strong figure. Yes we need one. Potf2 got one back in the days.
Hi BB, thanks for answering my question this week - keep up the good work 👍
Great Video BB! Thanks for answering my question.
I miss the McQuarrie figures.
I think if you have the time a live stream of yourself and JMiko and Tyler or any (or all) of the SWTVC guys would be very enjoyable. Maybe even Victoria join as well. I am a little surprised at how excited I am for MM25. Great video again.

Endor Rebel Trooper and Scarif Rogue One troopers ( unfortunately there is only the 5POA of that guy )
Blind bags usually have some sort of identifier anyway
While it's not the same thing, there are blind box droids in Galaxy's Edge. They have at least two different waves at this point. And since they're Build A Droids, all the parts are interchangeable.
Thank you Bossk

Then it's not a Blind Bag if you can find out what's inside.
@ that’s true but when they switched from the plastic bag to a recyclable cardboard box adding the QR codes was the way they devised to stop people from just tearing open shelves worth of Lego blind boxes to get the one they wanted.

Jedi Master Syfo Dyas . We must have him .. one of my Top wants
Yes, live stream with Only One please.

I would love an Admiral Trench as well but I know Hasbro would probably never do it lol

The size of the Ghost makes me want an Imperial Star Destroyer. I know. I know. Way too big, but still.
Hello there, BB. Excellent video as always. QFNW. Does little Bossk also like The Lego Star Wars collection? Thank you in advance.
Amazon AU listed Savage at a lower price on launch (they do mess up sometimes similar happened with Malgus) so i have two coming at the price of one!
But on TVC.. Savage in deluxe i want everyone to be clear, if we get Savage as a deluxe we need his replacement arm and that giant AXE!

What’s next for retro past the sandtrooper.
Galactic marines when???? Commander Bacará when???? 😭🙏
Tim, you mentioned selling the Nikto Jedi figure. I had assumed you had all of the Vintage Collection. How many figures are you missing?
I had them all....but as I dont have space display them all I have been slowly selling some. All of the ones I no longer have carded I would like a loose version. I think I am probably missing 20 or so now.
Hello, I have one question to ask.
Is it possible we will get a actual Full sized Scale of the Rebel U-wing fighter from rogue, one a Star Wars story?
Hello BB QFNW in your opinion between these three EU characters, Kyle Katarn, Mara Jade, or Darth Malak, which one do you think is the MOST likely to appear in TVC in the near future?
I think we'll get Pelli Motto in 2026, the movie year
QUESTION: I’m sure you get this a lot, but what reason does Hasbro have for not already reissuing a TVC General Grievous if SO many people want it?
Hey bossk with Andor S2 coming do you think we will get an Amazon or EE single carded 4pk? And do you think we will get only S2 figs or split the 2 figs from S2 and 2 from S1?
I also like the Sebastian Shaw as Anakin (ghost) not Hayden Christensen that is not realistic i find it a weird idea also for a Sci-Fi movie.
I really do hate the whole blind bag/box fad. With as expensive as toys are becoming, I only want to spend my money if I know 100% what I’m getting beforehand. There’s no fun in spending $15-$20 to be “surprised” by a toy I don’t want.
Lego went to card board boxes
Don't want swappable heads for Anakin's Spirit.
If they do it, it needs to be 2 versions.
If Hayden is on the cardback, it's a "Hell No" from me!
I will not buy it!
The original 96'r needs to be represented!
An updated filmout cardback is fine, but it needs to be Sebastian for my $$'s!
