SDCC has opened their online portal for registering for the lottery in order to purchase exclusives from Hasbro, Funko, LEGO, etc. Full details can be found at SDCCblog.com. If you are selected, you will be notified by email.
The official site has posted a rundown of exclusives available next month at SDCC. Items range from Hasbro, Funko and Mattel, to Fifth Sun, Regal Robot and more!
Stay tuned for more announcements and reveals as we get closer to San Diego Comic-Con.
It appears that the new droid sidekick, D-O, from The Rise of Skywalker will be getting the 10″ Funko POP! treatment as a new listing with the code name “Limerick” has surfaced in Target’s system. We first reported the code name back in February, and started compiling evidence attributing the name to D-O ever since, tying it to products for the Black Series and interactive/radio controlled droids. The DPCI for the 10″ POP is 323-01-7303 and retails for $29.99
If you are looking to bolster your Death Trooper ranks in preparation for The Mandalorian or missed out on them when first issued on the TVC card back, sponsor DorksideToys has added them back to their site for preorder. Look for them to start arriving toward the end of July.
News has been kind of light regarding products tying to The Mandalorian which set to debut in November of this year. But I’ve come across a bit of info that shows that a vehicle from the series will be offered in the Vintage Collection. I’m not sure if it will be out this year, but if what I’m hearing is accurate, it will be worth the wait.
UPDATE: Pricing I have found for “Huckleberry Hoodboat” puts this item (currently) in the $100+ range for the US.
DarthChuckMC has sent us a reminder of Target’s current markdown procedures which have recently involved those 6” TBS Luke (Death Star Escape), TVC Han Solo (Stormtrooper) and Retro Collection figures.
DorksideToys has shared with us a new image of the upcoming SDCC exclusive 40th Anniversary 6” Black Series Boba Fett (Kenner) figure . Note the inclusion of the E-11 Stormtrooper blaster rifle which wasn’t shown at SWCC. A nice decision as it’s more “Vintage Kenner-like” to include the Stormtrooper blaster.
