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.
Remaining August Preorder Round-Up:
August 20
TVC X-wing Fighter w/VC420 Luke Skywalker (Kenner Colors) – Hasbro Pulse – $139.99
TBS Ahsoka Tano & ARC Trooper Jesse 2pk – Hasbro Pulse – $55.99

For those who are interested in the Black Series Halloween Edition figures, Walmart has 2 of the 3 in stock and ready for shipment ($27.97 each).
Mon Calamari (The Creature from the Black Lagoon)
Tusken Raider (The Invisible Man)
Here is your reminder that the SDCC Exclusive Black Series AT-RT with ARF Trooper ($79.99) and the Vintage Collection Anakin Skywalker & Asajj Ventress Set ($51.99) release tomorrow, August 10, @ 1pm ET (Premium Members) / August 11 @ 1pm ET (General Public) at Hasbro Pulse.
UPDATE: Now available for Pulse Premium Members only.
The next release for Droid Factory Build-A-Droid Series 2 is now available with the release of R0-M1 and RJ-83 Droid Factory Figure Set from Star Wars Young Jedi Adventures.
UPDATE: SOLD OUT
In case that wasn’t enough, or Black Series isn’t your bag, plenty of Vintage Collection items are also arriving in the U.S.. If history is any indicator, the late summer and early fall will be murder on wallets and shelf space once again.
Since Hasbro cannot be bothered to provide realistic shipping dates, I’ll say that that all of these figures are now arriving in the U.S.. (Release date is supposed to be November.) Plan accordingly.
UPDATE: The Halloween Edition Black Series figures are all here also.
