Yesterday, Hasbro announced an Amazon exclusive TESB Retro Collection Bounty Hunter 2pk containing Dengar and IG-88. It is available for preorder now for $27.99 and is slated for a December release.
As a follow-up to our report from last week, it is rumored that the 3 figures comprising the rest of the Marvel comic-themed fan channel Black Series figures include Princess Leia, Darth Vader (Redeemed) and Sargeant Kreel. Thanks to figurebrian on Instagram for the heads up.
UPDATE: Code names added for each (note, the month names are codes, not their release dates)
It appears that Hasbro may be bringing back another figure that’s commanding high aftermarket prices: Shae Vizla from Star Wars: The Old Republic. It does make sense with the re-issue of the Republic Trooper due sometime this year.
GameStop is starting to process preorders for the exclusive Black Series Jet Trooper (Gaming Greats) figure from Star Wars: Battlefront II. Check your order status and/or email notifications for any movement.

Target stores in the Midwest are starting to receive the exclusive Carbonized Shoretroopers – some in ridiculous quantities. The above images are from stores in Sun Prairie, WI and Chaska, MN. It’s baffling to comprehend why stores would get this much of a single product while most stores are starved for regular mainline products, let alone exclusives. Meanwhile, preorders are set to process for this figure as well as Paz Vizsla and Scout Trooper on Feb. 27.
Thanks to Adam and Jairo for the images.
Preorders are now open for the Amazon Exclusive 6″ Black Series Cad Bane (Bracca) figure from The Bad Batch.
With the recent announcement of Black Krrsantan (code name “January”) and the discovery of code name “September” a few weeks ago for the Black Series line, we think we can safely report the preorder of 4 Lucasfilm Publishing figures this year. This would mirror last year’s fan channel release of 4 comic-based sets for Lucasfilm’s 50th Anniversary campaign. Hopefully the remaining 3 will be better received than Black Krrsantan.
Amazon has revised the estimate delivery date for some of the preorders for the TVC The Bad Batch 4pk to the end of this week. Check your orders and/or email notifications to see if yours has changed.
