		the vintage collection returns ...   
		after three years absence, the vintage series return 
		as the vintage collection series in 2010 in time to celebrate the 30th 
		anniversary of the empire strike back.  unlike the previous 
		vintage series, the vintage collection are not limited to newly sculpted figures 
		but also repackaged of the previously released figures from the regular 
		line. the figures do get some  improvements, such as new heads or 
		parts, while others are just 
		wholesale repaint with added soft goods.  while this help make the line more expansive 
		and reduce the cost, the figures are not as high in qualities as the figures from 
		three years ago.  also the figures in the vintage collection are 
		not necessary figures that were released in the original kenner line but 
		include many figures that never did appear in the old kenner series. 
		this 
		allow hasbro to release figures from the prequel along with other characters from the original trilogy 
		that never got proper kenner card.  hasbro also release special 
		chase figures with silver foil cards as part of the "galactic hunt". 
		  
		 
		  
		The first wave consisted of 11 figures from the 
		empire strike back including denga and 4-lom the two bounty hunters that 
		were missing from the previous vintage collection.  some new 
		notable figures that were never part of original kenner line including 
		never before seen dac ralter and han solo in echo base outfit along with 
		a remake of cloud car pilot. 
		  
		 
		  
		the second wave features figures from revenge of 
		the sith, the last movie from the prequel trilogy, which  
		celebrating the 5th anniversary in 2010.  this collection contains 
		reissue figures from several years ago along with  some brand new 
		figures such as magnaguard and darth sidious.  a lone sandtrooper from 
		star wars: a new hope is also strangely part of this wave. 
		  
		 
		  
		the third wave includes figures from return of the jedi 
		all of the cards with exception of wege antilles are from the original kenner 
		line from 1980's .  the forth wave will contains 
		figures from attack of the clone prequel movie.  there is a 
		good opportunity here to get a new figure with better details and 
		articulations but sadly many are repaints of figures from the last few 
		year. 
		  
		 
		the fifth wave is the first mixed wave and  have 
		figures from various movies.  the notable figures are new luke and 
		han and finally yoda that was removed from wave 2 is in this wave.  
		all the others are repaint or repackaged figures from previous saga 
		legend line.
