Star Wars The Vintage Collection Rogue One: A Story Antoc Merrick’s X-Wing Fighter Vehicle with Action Figure

Product Information

As a pilot of the Rebel Alliance, Antoc Merrick wore a blue flight suit with a white, gray, blue and yellow helmet. I wanted to create a smaller but more detailed X-wing and make it the blue Rogue One version with Anton Merrick.

General Antoc Merrick worried that General Davits Draven was too pragmatic and thus likely to forget the human variables when making his cold calculations. It could be argued that many of these are “play features”, which are generally frowned upon in adult collectibles, but it’s only when they disrupt the aesthetic and/or create screen inaccuracies. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item.Luke’s squadron was originally supposed to be Blue Squadron, but because the models were being shot on a blue chroma key, the blue wing designations would have resulted in a Brick Tamland moment.

From the highly-detailed emblems and symbols throughout the vehicle's hull to the beautiful color-blocked pattern on the s-foils, Hasbro went above and beyond to decorate this overused tooling to make it feel new again. My gripes with the mold are that the rear landing gears retract too easily, and the cockpit does not close flush.He viewed the offer as hollow and the Empire's TIE forces as unimaginative compared to the Rebel Alliance's starfighter squadrons, which demonstrated greater unit coherence and piloting ability. Hasbro took 2019's TVC Luke Skywalker (X-Wing Pilot) (VC158), gave it a new head, and repainted it in the colors of Antoc Merrick's blue/green pilot uniform. On page 170 of the 2016 reference book Star Wars: Rogue One: The Ultimate Visual Guide, Merrick was erroneously referred to as Davits Draven. Merrick sent multiple reports to Mon Mothma discussing the uses and details of ships both within the rebellion and those they fought against.

While we're not crazy about the packaging, the Rogue One logo doesn't look right on this style of packaging), it's nice to see another "new" vehicle available for purchase. Based on tooling first released in 2011 during the Star Wars [Shadow Of The Dark Side] line, Hasbro made that vehicle specific to the Death Star Trench Run from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. has offered many gems in the Vintage Collection, but I feel this Target exclusive Antoc Merrick’s X-Wing is tied with VC186 - Boba Fett for the most exciting release of the year.In Merrick's absence, or when operational authority was better served from a ground-based dispatch, General Jan Dodonna commanded the fleet.

With all of the helmets produced throughout the years, it's a shame that Hasbro didn't take the time to find a better-fitting helmet for this action figure.Having logged hundreds of hours at the controls of a U-wing, he knew from experience the pilots bore extra responsibility and felt particularly protective of them. This is where you will find any My Little Pony, Monster High, Barbie or Polly Pocket items that we may have in from time to time. Toys feature premium detail and design across product and packaging inspired by the original line, as well as the movie-inspired collector grade deco that fans have come to know and love. Prior to the outbreak of the Galactic Civil War, Merrick served as the flight leader of his homeworld's planetary defense forces, which was known as the Virujansi Rarified Air Cavalry. If you're into Rogue One, you may have been waiting for Hasbro to produce this pilot and vehicle set.
