While looking for new info regarding upcoming product for 2021, something interesting developed. As some may know, the production title for the new animated spin-off series, The Bad Batch, was “Cookies”. There have been some products tied to that code name, most prominently an assortment of POP!s from Funko which I tweeted about a week ago. The other day, I ran across a Hasbro product bearing a related code name. In order to protect those who are sensitive to spoilers, you’ll have to click through for the identity of this character.
It appears that the upcoming Target Exclusive 6″ TBS Remnant Stormtrooper has started to hit stores. Instgram follower NostalgicAdam sends word on finding a couple in a store in So Cal. They are street dated for Nov. 29. Price: $19.99 DPCI: 087-16-2844.
As mentioned on Hasbro’s last Fan First Friday, they’ve gone back and tweaked the cardback for the upcoming TVC Boba Fett (ROTJ) figure to more closely match the original Kenner release. The accent color has been adjusted to yellow and the reference photo has been zoom out for a “better” look at the character. The first orange version (left above) will be available initially then replaced as a running change.

A listing has been uncovered for an upcoming Bo-Katan set for Hasbro’s Mission Fleet line and is said to be a part of the $19.99 pricepoint. Also of interest is how the figure is codenamed and associated (but more on that when I can get some additional confirmation as to its potential meaning).
