The Story

Few A New Hope moments are as iconic as Luke and Han slipping into Stormtrooper armor to rescue Princess Leia, and VC169 is the Vintage Collection's definitive 3.75-inch treatment of that scene. Released as part of Hasbro's 2020 wave, it sits alongside the equally sought-after Han Solo Stormtrooper disguise figure — a pairing collectors have singled out as highlights of the relaunched line. The retro Kenner-style silver-stripe card, complete with the classic "Kenner" logo on the front, is a love letter to the original 1977–1985 run and designed to hang or display alongside vintage-era cards.

The figure itself is presented on a bright red backer insert inside a clear bubble that remains intact and tight to the card on this vintage example, with the card showing expected collector wear consistent with its age. Luke comes fully kitted in white Stormtrooper armor with a removable helmet and a blaster pistol, and the card back — numbered VC169 — lays out an eight-figure lineup including K-2SO, Power Droid, Clone Commander Wolffe, See-Threepio (C-3PO), Luke Skywalker (Bespin), Han Solo (Bespin), and General Lando Calrissian. The super-articulated 3.75-inch body construction places it firmly in the premium tier of the Vintage Collection, well above the 5-POA figures found in basic assortments.

VC169 appeals equally to A New Hope scene-builders, Vintage Collection completists, and army-builders drawn to the Stormtrooper gear. The card back's wave lineup represents a diverse cross-trilogy assortment, making this a natural centerpiece of any Vintage Collection carded display. Whether kept on card or opened to pose alongside VC170 Han Solo, this release remains one of the wave's most personality-rich entries.

The Stuff You’re Probably Wondering Before You Smash ‘Buy Now’

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

How Fast Do We Ship?

Most in-stock orders placed before 12 PM CST ship the same day. We’re label-printing, box-packing machines — without skimping on quality. Your tracking number will probably show up before you’ve even closed the tab.

How Do We Pack Orders?

Every item gets collector-grade treatment: bubble wrap, proper padding, and zero envelope crimes. We pack like your grail’s riding shotgun with us — damage rate is under 1%.

Are You Actually Collectors Too?

Yep. We’ve been hunting plastic treasures since the ‘90s. We speak fluent collector (MOC, BAF, grail hunting), we’ve camped outside stores for midnight releases, and we run this place like the shop we always wished existed. Professional enablers at your service. 😎

What's Your Return Policy?

30 days to decide if it’s true love. Not happy? Full refund to your original payment method. Damaged? We replace or refund fast. Just keep items in the condition you got them, and we’ll make it right — because the only drama in collecting should be choosing a display pose. One exception: trading card game product is final sale, since a sealed box can’t be verified once it leaves our hands.

Pre-Orders: How They Work

Calling dibs costs you $0 today — we only charge your card when it ships. No awkward “I paid months ago” limbo. Mixing in-stock + pre-orders? In-stock ships now; pre-orders ship together once the last one lands, and shipping’s charged on each leg (pro tip: check ship dates before combining pre-orders). Dates can shift — we’ll keep you posted faster than Spider-Man slings webs. And if we ever can’t deliver (rare), you’re not charged a dime.

Still Stumped? Let’s Talk.

We’re real collectors who actually answer — no bots, no scripts, no hold music. Shoot us a message and we’ll get back faster than you can refresh your tracking number.
