Vintage Collection Y-Wing (TRU)

[garrison99]

After trading all my SW vehicles I finally got the itch to get a couple. So I went to TRU today and picked up the new Vintage Collection Y-wing. Havent opened it yet, but she looks really nice. If I get some time this week I will post pics of it.

Anybody else pick this baby up yet?

I avoid stores to prevent triggering my OCD and getting into toys again.

i havent seen it yet. i need a y wing and b wing. i got my eye on the big slave one. i love that ship.

I didn't realize there was a new one out!

I was at TRU yesterday, and they didn't have the vintage y-wing. I would have snagged one for sure. I'm jealous. And I haven't even tried our kmart looking for the b-wing. I can't believe k-mart still has enough buying power to warrant an exclusive. Our kmart makes Big Lots look like Target.

There's a Bwing out too!? WTF?

Thanks Nacho!

lots of cool vintage stuff coming soon. Can't wait. They've learned to tap into my bottomless well-o-nostalgia.

Is anything re-designed on this one? Other than the paint job? The box isn't that descriptive.

 

[nacho]

Not sure. I heard something that it might have the improved cockpit of some other fighters, but beyond that, I think it's just a reissue. But alas, I'm no expert at modern SW toys.

 

[Midget]

The cockpit in the last one was pretty good. The exterior could have used a little better paint.

Cockpit is all new, plus it is ROTJ colors. Plus, it is a freakin' y-wing...one the best ships ever!!!!

I really want to snag that, Along with the B-wing. If Hasbro really wants to get me in bed with them, give me a Tie Interceptor in the classic box!

I was actually referencing the B-Wing, but that's good to know about the Y

Thanks Garrison, this is why we need you around. I'd love to get a B-wing, any idea on price?

 

[Midget]

I already have two B-wings… I want another though. I can't wait to get a house and hang those in formation. Such an interesting shape.

My b-wing is not showing up until friday. It sucks not having any kmarts in Texas! From what I have read and seen it looks sweet.

 

[Midget]

I need to start checking the target next to me.

Kmart dude for the bwing!!! Target is getting the TaunTaun and Landspeeder next month

 

[Midget]

Kmart… kmart… the blows to the head are really starting to get to me.

Damnit man...the b-wing looks really sweet, after reading an online review is what sold me on buying one. The only knock against it is weathering from what I read.

Linky?

Excellent.

That thing is just begging for a wash. At least the cockpit.
