A listing on Amazon UK reveals another unannounced Retro Collection item with code name “End“. The recently announced Retro Collection Bounty Hunter 2pk had the code name “Center“. No price is listed but it does show a release date of September 1, 2022 and dimensions of 30mm x 226mm x 229mm (roughly 1″ x 9″ x 11.75”) – so it’s a different format from the two pack. Coincidentally, the Target exclusive Retro Collection “Eraser” Prototype figure also has a Sept. 1 street date.
GameStop’s exclusive 6″ Black Series Jet Trooper and Nightbrother Warrior (Gaming Greats) figures have started hitting stores and should available for purchase when the internal shelf date lifts tomorrow (March 14).
