Rebelscum reader Aaron Slagle writes in with a report on some interesting variations he's found on The Vintage Collection cardbacks.

"My local Walmart set out more of the Vintage Collection Phantom Menace figures. None of them had the Darth Maul sweepstakes form or sticker on the package. I have discovered the following packaging variations:

1) Life-size Darth maul sweepstakes sticker & entry form

2) Life-size Darth Maul sweepstakes sticker & entry form with barcode sticker over UPC

3) No Darth Maul sticker, no entry form, no barcode sticker.

I've attached photos of the variations. Note that all 12 figures in a case had the same variation.

Have you found these in your area? I was under the assumption that all figures in this wave had the sweepstakes forms. Evidently these were ones that were packaged early and didn't get the forms."

What if Hasbro were to offer a new line of larger scale figures that put a focus on screen accuracy? The Probe Droid is curious if you'd walk away from the 3 3/4" line in favour of something new that catered more to adult collectors.
I'd be willing to start from scratch.
I'd be into it only if they were super articulated.
I'd only be into it if sculpt and silhouette were the main focus.
I might get a few, but I don't think I'm ready to start something new.
I'm only interested in 3 3/4" figures.
I don't collect the Hasbro stuff.
