Rumor Report: New 6″ Black Series Credit Collection Exclusives Coming Soon

Over the weekend, I received information for at least two new 6″ Black Series Credit Collection figures – Moff Gideon and The Armorer – coming at some point this year. As you recall, these figures are simple repaints of existing figures made to emulate their concept art shown at the end of each episode of The Mandalorian and released on Vintage-style cardbacks. No word yet as to which retailer(s) they’ll be offered.

Note: the art above may or may not be used as the basis of the figure’s deco and card art.

Update: Hot Toys Reveals 1:6 Luke Skywalker (The Mandalorian) Figure

Hot Toys has revealed the full details on their new 1:6 scale Luke Skywalker figure from The Mandalorian. There are 2 versions available standard and deluxe with the latter including a destroyed Dark Trooper torso. Both versions of Luke feature positionable eyes, include Grogu, a hologram of Moff Gideon’s Light Cruiser and a wide variety of swappable accessories. Look for preorders for these to launch soon at Sideshow Collectibles.

UPDATE: Both versions now available or preorder.

TVC: Recent Acquisitions

I think most of us would agree that hunting for TVC at retail is almost always a complete waste of time and has been for quite a while. There are of course ways to somewhat easily acquire new figures online however, or even through online marketplaces like Mercari (which I am now addicted to).

Today, I had an unexpected surprise by scoring a trio of TVC Shadow Stormtroopers at a local collector shop basically for standard retail… sure the figure is just a repaint, but it’s better than staring at empty pegs. It actually made my day to upgrade my Shadow Stormtroopers finally, and the cardback looks awesome too.

That being said, what are your most recent acquisitions?
