It does seem like an odd lineup of reissues - they almost have nothing in common with one another, except two were both in ROTJ. One thing that I have been getting a sense of is that even the re-releases might be breadcrumbs leading to other potential releases, like characters with a common theme or possible playsets or world building pieces.
Shae Viszla has gone up in price dramatically over time. And it's a lot like the deal with reissuing the Clone Wars Ahsoka from 2012. Hasbro has seen the explosion in prices for a lot of the figures from TVC 1.0 on the secondary market, and they intend to get a piece of that action. That and the aforementioned Dark Saber link seem like a good enough reason to revisit this figure.
The same could be said of Nein Nunb. That figure was actually kind of scarce. He was in that online exclusive case assortment:
"Vintage" Collection Wave 17 (2012 Wave 7)
2012 VC71 Ep1 Mawhonic {repack}
2012 VC72 Ep1 Naboo Pilot {repack}
2012 VC73 Ep1 Aurra Sing {repack}
2012 VC74 Ep1 Gungan Warrior {repack}
2012 VC102 Ahsoka Tano Realistic TCW
2012 VC103 Obi-Wan Realistic TCW
2012 VC104 Lumat
2012 VC105 Emperor's Royal Guard
2012 VC106 Nien Nunb
2012 VC107 Weequay
2012 VC113 Republic Trooper The Old Republic
2012 VC114 Prune Face
...most of the figures from this case fetch a substantial price on the secondary market since they didn't hit mass retail. There are exceptions, like the ones that were also in the Discover The Force line - there were 4 of those. Aside from those the following have been reissued or are on the way:
2012 VC102 Ahsoka Tano Realistic TCW
2012 VC103 Obi-Wan Realistic TCW
2012 VC105 Emperor's Royal Guard
2012 VC106 Nien Nunb
2012 VC113 Republic Trooper The Old Republic
I fully expect that the Weequay and Pruneface will probably be reissued within the next year or so if the secondary market prices keep going up. Lumat, too. As for Nien Nunb? The vintage Kenner figure was one of my personal favorites. And I was happy to see the character return in the Sequel Trilogy. I'll happily get another couple of these since the TFA version kind of stinks.
Bespin Leia seems like one of the few OT main character figures from TVC 1.0 that's worth reissuing. And it fits with the release of Lando and Lobot over the past few months. If Hasbro intends for this figure to complement another Original 96 release? I'd like it to be a TESB specific Chewbacca and/or a C-3PO with cargo net (and maybe the bin that Chewie puts the parts in). An updated Ugnaught would be another decent Cloud City themed figure to slot into the line.
Logray? A bit of a head scratcher, definitely. But Ewoks seem to have found a place in the hearts of nostalgic OT fans with the benefit of decades of time. Could it be a sign of more Ewoks that could be part of the Original 96 campaign? Three of the ROTJ Ewoks made in the Kenner days have not been made in The Vintage Collection - Chief Chirpa, Romba and Warok. I'm hoping that Hasbro will try to time one or all of them for releases in 2023 for the ROTJ 40th. An Ewok village playset wouldn't hurt, either.
I get the desire for a Revan figure. He's the central character in one of the biggest Star Wars video games of all time. The 30th Anniversary Collection figure was adequate in 2007, and Hasbro was right to pull that figure from a TVC release. It needs updating. Whether or not that translates to the figure being a mainline release or a Gaming Greats release is another story entirely. I've seen lots of discussions on a similar topic regarding Cal Kestis from Jedi - Fallen Order.
