A video captured by @_figgie_smalls at FanExpo Canada looks to have caught an unannounced Black Series set on display. The pack, code named “Giant”, includes a STAP w/Mercenary Guard Droid variant as well a(nother) Mandalorian with swappable head from his battle on Nal Hutta. This is likely an Amazon exclusive and retails for $84.99 U.S.. More details to come later…

Preorders are now open for Premium Members for the Black Series Clones of the Republic set featuring Ahsoka Tano & ARC Trooper Jesse. Preorders open for the general public at 2pm ET (quantity permitting).
In case you haven’t had your fill of TVC X-wings, it looks like more shipments of the TVC Antoc Merrick X-wing with Merrick (from 2021) are arriving in the U.S.. No word how these will be offered as this was previously a Target exclusive, so I imagine it will get new life as a fan channel release.
