Is the one on the far left the "clean" version he's selling?

No the shadows and varried spray apps kind of hide it

Let's just say I am lucky my wife accepts my collecting.
You can always sell the games or give them as gifts. I bought a second just for a Remnant Stormtrooper opener. Still cheaper than getting one on eBay.
I got a second game today and the Remnant Stormtrooper is definitely less dirty looking than the first I got. Seems like they didn’t put as much paint on and the back of the hands are white like the regular stormtrooper.

All 3 i got from Tunghori are slightly different than the carded one I have, as well as each other.
That would make a cool vintage style 3 pack. Well Technically Din isn’t considering a villain in the series.
I guess BBTS was a little too optimistic about shipping the Retro Mando wave? I ordered a case from EE with an est. arrival of May and a case from BBTS with an est. arrival of January. I just noticed that BBTS has quietly moved their goal post to May over the last couple of days, so looks like spring at best for everyone?

I havea feeling thesewill show up early.
Don’t put too much faith in BBTS’s estimated arrivals. They are late a lot of the time and they’ve said January from the day they announced them. It should have said May from the start.
Agreed, I just ordered from 2 different companies because it seems every time I order from one (DorkSide, BBTS, Amazon, EE, etc.), the other ones ship first. I'm just hoping to improve my chances of getting them early! 
That said, I bet Pulse get these before anyone.

I want to give a shout out to Tiredknight. He did a solid by hooking me up with one last Retro Fett. He had faith enough in me, as a fellow scummer/Rebelscum memeber, to send him out before asking for payment. I don't recommend this normally but I think it really shows his character.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Just happy to be helpful.
Did I miss the announcement of this?
I don't recall seeing it in any press release.
It looks cute.

Slave Leia retro!
Buh?
I was really hoping we might see some card art for he Mando wave yesterday, but still nothing. I'm beginning to wonder if this is yet another wave that Hasbro underproduced?
ROTJ card as well

Isn't that a power of the force card?
Looks great so far, just maybe priced a bit more than I'd feel comfortable paying.
It works though. Feels the right cardback for this one.
They aren't cheap but I feel they are still a good value. I'm sure in time they will be collectibles all the same.

I’m sorry I missed something. Has a retro Leia on POTF card really been announced?
There are a couple of customs up for pre-order. One is by Stan Solo and one by Smith Lord Creations/The Fans Strike Back

This may put me in the minority, but I’ve never really wanted a Kenner-style Leia. It looks off to me. Just off. 
.
But I certainly at least can understand it. As a rule, I guess I would want any and all figures if I could get them.

I believe it may be one in the same.
Your absolutely right. No need to yell, we're all in the same room
Looks like I'm getting one of each!

Gotta be honest...some of these seem more like Fisher Price than Kenner
There's also this third option to 3D print from Desert Octopus...who decided to go with the skirt in a way more-fitting of the era the Kenner line was madeYour absolutely right. No need to yell, we're all in the same room

I'd be interested in seeing Hasbro tackle Leia in this outfit for the Retro Collection, but I doubt that'll happen. I certainly appreciate all the various customs that have come out over the years, but once they're molded and mass produced for sale, they become bootlegs.
Duh...
Ehhhhhh, boy.
I was only referring to the legs...the skirt being built onto the legs, similar to the robes of Anakin/Palpatine/etc
There's no way Kenner in 1983 would have put a skirt that 10 year old boys could peep under like the other two
From the waist up, yeah, she's definitely curvier than Kenner would have done. I think from the 3 of those, though, one could Frankenstein something pretty Kennerish
