Poking around at Target’s price checking stations, I managed to uncover two new potential Black Series exclusives that follow the “exercise” code names started by “Lunge” which we reported a couple months ago.
“Squat” is currently priced similarly to the recent Target exclusive Clone Wars figures at $26.49, while “Jog” is $10 more and suggests it being a deluxe item.
The UPCs I have for these don’t match anything I’ve previously uncovered (yet) so these are definitely new items. This info has been added to our 2021 Master List for future reference.
Thanks to some in-hand packaging shots from a Facebook member, we now have the VC numbers for Wave 7 of the Vintage Collection. They breakdown as follow:
It’s nice to have that 176 gap officially filled after the error of issuing the two Walmart Exclusive TVC figures – Din Djarin and The Child and the Incinerator Stormtrooper the VC177 designation. Now the question is: Who is VC200?
The Disney Store exclusive series of Star Wars Toybox figures continues on with a new set revealed recently – Ahsoka Tank and Captain Rex. These should be available online and in-store in the coming weeks here in the US.
Hasbro has sent word that they will be offering another “batch” of the Amazon Exclusive TVC Bad Batch Sets in early 2022. Why not just open more preorders now instead of parsing them out 6-7 months from now?
Long rumored to be joining Lando Calrissian “Antarctica”, IG-11 “Huron” and Teebo “Ontario”, Amazon AU has updated the listing for “Erie” as well confirming The Emperor coming to the Vintage Collection. The pages and listings are no longer visible publicly but remain visible to those who added them to a list for future purchase when available.
According to a few Amazon AU listings, it looks like we can expect the release of a few of the announced “pipeline” Black Series figures on or around November 1, 2021. Figures include Boba Fett (Tython), Migs Mayfeld (Morak) and the Stormtrooper (Jedha Patrol).
I received some information yesterday from a few different sources corroborating some of the existing code names we have for Black Series with some rumored figures we’ve shared as well. Click on through for the details and when we may expect them.
Those who preordered the exclusive TVC Paploo and AT-ST Driver figures from Walmart can start checking their statuses as orders have begun processing and shipping notifications are hitting inboxes.
Collectors have been anxiously awaiting some sort of update on the official release/preorder of the Walgreens Exclusive 6″ Black Series 212th Battalion Clone Trooper announced last week. So here’s a “non-update” update: as of today, Walgreens still doesn’t have this in their system – neither online nor in-store.
If we use the last Walgreens exclusive as a guide, the 6″ Phase I Clone Trooper Lieutenant never went up for preorder either. It was leaked on August 18, 2020, officially announced on August 21, and then went online for purchase (not preorder) a month later on September 18. I wouldn’t be surprised if something similar happened for the new 212th Clone Trooper.
