Rumor Report: 6″ TBS holiday Trooper(s)?
Another curious product has been uncovered via the Walmart app. A listing shows a 6″ Black Series Holiday Trooper of some sort and it also has a designation of “5”. Does this mean more than one??? Time will tell I guess, no word as to what type of trooper it may be or even if “Holiday” is another code name.
Rumor Report Update: Mandalorian Build Up Pack is TVC?
Some additional digging has potentially revealed a significant detail on the rumored Mandalorian Build-Up Pack we shared last week. According to Walmart’s system, this is a VINTAGE COLLECTION set, not a Black Series item — unless there are 2 separate items with the same name, that Australian distributor was wrong, or Walmart’s system is wrong. More info to come as we learn more.
Rumor Report: 3 new TVC “Gem” Figure Listings Found via Walmart app
Another bit of TVC news today. Three more new TVC figure listings have turned up in the Walmart system, this time, coded with gem names: “Sapphire”, “Emerald” and “Diamond”. No indication as to whom they might represent. The pricing is a bit weird for these but it may just be preliminary for the early listing. Again , no indication on availability or exclusivity.
Once again, thanks to WalmartGhost for the assistance.
UPDATE: I have also added “VIN RUBY” to the list.
Rumor Report: TVC Incinerator Trooper Found via Walmart App

A couple weeks ago, I once again joined the Galaxy of Toys podcast to discuss the latest news from Hasbro regarding the Black Series and (anemic) Vintage Collection.
Note: the beginning of the podcast features a cold open (recorded after the reveals) and then it jumps “back in time” to the regular show format as recorded on May 17, 2020.
Rumor Report: 6″ TBS Mandalorian Figure Build-Up Pack
A link found on an Australian distributor website, reveals an upcoming 6″ Black Series Mandalorian Build-Up Pack from Hasbro. No word on its contents but it sounds like The Mandalorian figure with several additional accessories similar to the Sith Trooper Armory Pack figure from the Vintage Collection. Hopefully it will include the pram for The Child and maybe his newly acquired jetpack. Nevermind, the Beskar Mando includes the jetpack. 😛 How about whistling birds, flame and blaster attachments or a flight stand like the Target Exclusive Marvel Legends Black Widow?
Thanks to JTPrime for the alert.
Update: Another Black Series Clone Trooper Figure Revealed through EBGames?
Thank you sir, may I have another? EBGames looks to have another unannounced figure in their system. Labeled “SW BL CLONE TROOPER LT” this could in fact be a Phase I Clone Trooper with blue armor flashed from Attack of the Clones. Thanks to @wingorlose on Instagram for the intel and image.
UPDATE: Facebook follower Avi German notes on our Facebook page that Cad Bane was also listed via EBGames. If accurate, the above clone is probably the unidentified trooper from Wave 27 in our Master List that includes Hoth Rebel Trooper, Incinerator Trooper, Han Solo (ROTJ), Leia (ROTJ), Luke Skywalker (ROTJ) and Cad Bane.
