The End of The Vintage Collection?

According to some reliable sources over at the SWNZ Message Boards, Hasbro representatives at the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con have announced that the Star Wars Vintage Collection will be taking an extended leave of absence.


I, for one, will be mourning the loss of this line. Hasbro really seemed to be making an effort with the Vintage Collection, providing us with a number of new and interesting sculpts and releasing a number of less-often seen characters as 3 3/4" figures. While the Movie Heroes line will continue, this tends to focus largely on repacks of standard characters.

It looks like the Vintage Collection figures listed on my last Huntlist will be the last 3 3/4" figures I'll be hunting for for some time.
