It's that time of year as the SWTVC March Madness is in effect! Voting is open now, and the link to vote is here:  https://linktr.ee/swtvc From there you can click on the March Madness tab and select the 25 figured you want. The only rule is they have to be all newly tooled figuues. This isn't a normal way to start the year off on my blog; but with it being earlier to get the list in, and taking New Year's weekend off, let's go! I'll go from 25 (lowest preference) to 1st (highest preference).  25. Throne Room Rey (Episode 8). I can't stand the movie, but wouldn't object to Rey being done from this scene. I mean, she's the most popular character Lucasfilm (from a movie perspective if you believe Lucasfilm rumors) has and is appearing in a new movie, right? Right?!  24.

I also did a 25 Best VC Figures for 2025 which was successful, and a neat way to interact with collectors this year. When it came to picking 10 figures this year, I had a difficult time. Last year, I struggled putting a list together. This year, no worries! If you've read my blog, you should figure out who my top figures are. But before I get started, I like to get the bad news out of the way first. While there were many good things for the VC, there are a few more that didn't help advance the line. At the end, I'll give my hopes for 2026. So this will be a long post, grab some coffee or hot chocolate, kick up your feet, and I hope you enjoy...
