Star Wars Vintage Cardbacks to Return? New DCPI Numbers
Vintage stuff is always cool to see. Even if it is just the card backs that are vintage.
Vintage is trying hard now to make a rebound ever since the loss of 25th Gi Joe and Transformers. We have not had Vintage styled figure in a long time and I hope soon to see a return of all of Hasro's vintage styles fiure and packaging. I MISS IT. DONT LET MOVIES RUIN A GOOD THING!
I only collected the vintage carded figures as well. I really hope that trend continues. To me, the bubble carded packaging currently being used does not seem like these are STAR WARS figures I am looking at.
I'm with all of you on the vintage cards. I love them. I loved them with GI Joe 25th figures.
I do not, however, love vintage style figures. Other than nostalgia, there's really no reason for them. I thought GI Joe did a great job of giving us the vintage look but with modern articulation. I hope that is how they handle SW.
