Full Exceptional Collection of Vector Bundles for Toric Varieties

Kawamata showed the derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective toric variety has a full exceptional collection consisting of sheaves. I was wondering if it is know whether every smooth projective toric variety has a full exceptional collection consisting of vector bundles?

For context, King conjectured that a smooth complete toric variety has a full strong exceptional collection consisting of line bundles. This turns out to be false. For example, Hill and Perling constructed example of smooth projective toric variety which does not have a full strong exceptional collection consisting of line bundles. It seems significant work has gone into producing additional counterexamples, as well as, proving the conjecture under additional hypotheses.

I am wondering whether a similar conjecture might be true if we drop the strong hypothesis and allow vector bundles instead of line bundles.
