Past Saturday the time had come! TungHori added three TVC figures of the upcoming Clone Wars wave to his store. Unfortunately I didn't have my laptop on me to let you know and also had no chance to buy these 3. But if I'm honest to myself, I could rather buy them cheaper on card here in Germany...

Visit his store to secure yours while stock lasts:

When TungHori re-listed the blue one it was another buck more to get him.

Sometimes it feels like TungHori is reading or mighty Tung hears my prayers...

New TVC figures listed on https://www.tunghori.com/starwars



Edit: all gone shortly after I shared it. Here are the detailed screenshots of the mobile version. Hope they're re-stocked so that I can add a couple Jawas to my collection...

I keep my fingers crossed that TungHori will restock them all at least once more. Just returned from the post office to ask if my order from December 3 was there. It's probably still at the customs' office and 3 weeks for shipping is still totally fine for me. It usually takes only 10 days from HongKong to Germany and last time I didn't receive a notification to pick up my order at the post office. I keep asking since then because I don't want my package to be sent back ever again especially if it's not my fault. People are quite crazy here a couple days before Christmas eve...everyone is honkin'!

Stay safe everyone!

I bet he does! Philipp thanks for keeping us aware. It might be the only way we get these figures.

So I spent a good amount of time on https://www.tunghori.com/starwars yesterday. I got a few theories, but the result of is that all newly listed figures of the last couple days have now been removed from the shop, again.
To my total surprise there was one more figure to be added and probably wouldn't have sold out in minutes if it wasn't the Razor Crest edition Mandalorian figure...

If it cures your pain a little, I didn't manage to place an order myself. I just sat there being confused and excited at the same time. Finally new figures. Hopefully Lobot and Bib Fortuna will follow. But none of the figures I wanted were available at the same time.
Don't know who the other snipers are out there, but I definitely ran out of ammo a day before Christmas eve.
I'll send mighty TungHori a message and ask if the above mentioned figures will be available next week at the end of the month.

I wonder if...

1) TungHori has become more popular than ever before (although I'm confident that sales numbers decreased by some serious figures when he closed his ebay store). But it seems more and more people got to know his new store. I'm one person to blame here I guess...ooops

2) it might have gotten more difficult to acquire these figures. Maybe TungHori doesn't get as many units as he used to.

3) Hasbro might have shifted their production to Taiwan completely or even to Malaysia. Yesterday I found an image, that might indicate that. I found it on Amazon, but might also just be the label of the Malaysian distributor that was used by Amazon accidentally...





This guy was gone after minutes...I barely had time to take a screenshot and then the product page had been removed already:

We did a podcast on this guy once and talked for over an hour on the various theories we had on how he gets his stuff.

Interesting thoughts Philipp.

I need to listen to your podcast then! Maybe the factories that Hasbro employs since 2012/13 have become so efficient that hardly* any units are rejected.

*trying to say much less factory rejects than there used to be. I mean even Stormtroopers with heavy misprints passed quality control recently as seen in the new army-builder 4-Packs!

Offworld Jawa, Bo-Katan and Captain Grey are back in stock. Even the Razor Crest Mandalorian is going to be re-listed. Keep checking...

So as of the beginning of 2022 TungHori has 150 figures listed. And I wonder what his plans are for this year. Is he still getting enough stock?
And is he going to see other action figure lines to expand his income? I mean you can find his store's URL with /starwars at the end. Could there be /marvel or /gijoe as well?

The only Star Wars 6" Black Series figure he had ever listed so far is The Child from Then Mandalorian. It's still listed for $2.99.
I suppose he doesn't want to mix 3.75" with 6" figures to avoid misunderstandings in scale. Also higher shipping costs might be the reason. In any case I'll ask him and let you know what he replies.

Let's hope for another good year for The Vintage Collection!

I know he sure did come off eBay with a vengeance.

It would be interesting to know how much more of a profit margin he has now that he doesn't have to pay all the eBay fees.
