Vintage Collection March Madness 2023:  Submit Your Top 25

Our friends from the @SWTVC Instagram page are in the beginning stages of their annual March Madness Vintage Collection bracket poll. This event is growing every year, and you definitely want to make sure your voice is heard on this. They are asking that you submit (up to) your top 25 most wanted Vintage Collection figures. My personal list will appear at the bottom of this article after the guidelines. Submit yours in the comments. You can submit less than 25 if you want to.

Guidelines from @SWTVC:

1. Rank your choices in order, with your most-wanted figure at #1.

2. Be as specific as possible. For characters that wear multiple outfits, include details such as the movie, TV season, and/or planet where they appear.

3. Focus on newly tooled figures. They can be never-before-made characters or updates to existing figures, but be mindful of what already exists, and please do not include repack requests.

4. One character per slot. Other than two-packs of small characters, please do not put multiple characters on a single line. If you want the Bad Batch or the Ghost crew, for example, list the characters individually. The ONLY exceptions here are the Tonnika sisters, who we will be combining into one choice for the bracket as we did the past two years.

You have from now until 11:59 pm PT on Tuesday, January 31 to create and submit your lists. You can do so on this post, or in the comments below, or create your own Instagram post and tag @SWTVC and #SWTVCMarchMadness. Please only submit in one location to avoid duplication.

Be sure to spread the word! The more people who participate, the better the results will be. Last year we received over 400 lists covering over 1,200 different figures, and we’d love to get even more this time.

Please note: this is just for fun, to see where fans’ priorities are with The Vintage Collection. This is not officially involved with Hasbro in any way.

My personal top 25:

I'm not messing around anymore. I'm done with new media. I'd rather add to existing, well populated subsets than get three figures from a brand new source that may or may not interact with one another.
