The SWTVC Podcast

The bar has been backed, Wuher has been wooed, it's time for Tonnika, Greedo is neato, and Nabrun has been nabbed, which means it's time for the SWTVC team to put a cap on their coverage of the 4th Star Wars The Vintage Collection HasLab!

Join Evan, John, Tyler, and Lewis as they take a look at the campaign, celebrate the success of yet another TVC campaign, and talk over some things they'd like to see Hasbro perhaps adjust for future efforts.

How many did Evan end up backing? Will John put Arleil Schous on his Top 25 next year? Has Lewis gotten any new figures in the mail this year? How many Enochs does Tyler have? Tune in and find out!

Every saga has a beginning... and can you believe that it's been 25 years since Episode 1 came out? We can't!

It's a belated May the Fourth miracle! The SWTVC Podcast returns!

After taking some much needed post-March Madness rest, Evan and John took some time out of their busy Star Wars Day festivities to chat about the recent Hasbro reveals. Were the promised TVC updates indeed exciting? Was not having a HasLab launch on the holiest of holy days too much of a dark cloud to shake? What have we been up to? Will John ever open his Razor Crest?

Find these answers and more when you listen to this episode, available now wherever you get your podcasts!

So how about the Hasbro Fan Stream, eh?

This week, Evan and John sat down to catch up on all the latest reveals, a couple pieces of news, and get fired up about their feelings on the current state of TVC. Not to worry, even on days that are frustrating, there are still happy beeps to be had!

Be sure to catch Tyler's thoughts on the reveals on this weekend's Bossk's Bounty livestream on YouTube as well!

Oh, and one more thing: there's still a little bit of time to submit your Top 25 for this year's TVC March Madness tournament! You can do so at bit.ly/TVCMMTop25. If these reveals drastically changed your list, you can also edit your list! We cover all that and more in this episode.

Repacks and repaints and reveals galore!

March Madness talk... in September!?

Hard to believe, but we are already at the halfway point between March Madnesses right now, which means John has a hankering for examining data. What are some of the trends for previous March Madnesses? What are some of the things that have shown up multiple years? Which figures have and haven't been made?

We also talk a little about the recently revealed Obi-Wan Kenobi vs Darth Vader "Showdown" 2-pack and some of the doors the tooling for the Obi-Wan could help us open moving forward. It's not like Evan was counting the days until this pack would be revealed... right?

GOT. THE. GHOST.

This week, the SWTVC team sat down to reflect on the smashing success of the Ghost HasLab, discuss what did (and didn't) work over the course of the campaign, and celebrate the fact that TVC is 3 FOR 3 in fully-backed-with-all-tiers-and-more HasLabs!

Does John want a Sandcrawler as the next HasLab? Did Tyler get enough sleep for this episode? Most importantly, are you ready for peace and quiet without constant #GetTheGhost posts? Tune into this episode for answers to these burning questions and more!
