A fellow DCSWCCer found an Endor Capture TVC Luke Jedi figure with the nameplate graphic corrected at TRU. The original release was missing the metal effect around the nameplate and was all white. This has now been corrected.

Pictures and Hasbro’s presentation from 2011 Toy Fair have hit the net. There appears to be three new offerings for the Luke Jedi focus collectors. The first is the third cardback release of the TVC Luke Jedi figure, this one with the “Revenge of the Jedi” cardback. This same figure will be included in a SDCC exclusive 12-pack.

Collecting Podcasts
I started listening to two Star Wars collecting podcasts recently and really enjoy them. I had previously listened to other Star Wars related podcasts but neither of them kept my interest. These two are new and have definitely kept me listening.
The first is ‘This Week in Star Wars‘ done by fellow DCSWCCer Matt Fox. He trolls the web so you don’t have too. Its a short and concise podcast about all things Star Wars.
The second is the ‘Chive Cast, The Star Wars Collectors Archive Podcast, geared towards vintage collecting. Skye and Steve host the show and have talked about numerous topics related to vintage collecting.
