Last week we reported the first sighting of TVC Wave 16 at Target and this week, it looks like Walmart has followed suit. This report comes from scottw703 on Instagram in Chesapeake, VA courtesy of @KyloCollector.
Meanwhile, preorders for the TVC Incinerator Trooper (and TBS Clone Wars figures) keep getting pushed back into 2021, or outright cancelled, despite taking new in-stock online orders.
Thanks Walmart, your failure is complete.
Chapter 13 of The Mandalorian officially aired last Friday and fulfilled many fan dreams of seeing a live action version of Ahsoka Tano on screen. This episode finds The Mandalorian on his quest to deliver the asset formerly known as “The Child” to the Jedi but not without a run in with another warlord that must be dispatched to save a village. Dave Filoni delivers a great episode in the vein of many samurai tales that influenced Star Wars from its inception.

After picking up my set of 6″ Remnant Stormtroopers from Target this morning, the first thing I did was check the packaging for the potential reveal of the next figure in the line (10). As you can see above, it looks like we’re getting another Mandalorian type figure. Based on some of the details like the jet pack and shoulder armor, it’s hard to determine who it may be exactly as the art doesn’t exactly match character designs for Bo-Katan, Koska Reeves, Axe Woves, nor Cobb Vanth. Who do you think it is intended to represent?
UPDATE: The figure in question is the rumored Bo-Katan. The jet pack artwork on her packaging has been update to reflect her design on The Mandalorian
Target is now sending shipping notifications for new TVC figure preorders including The Mandalorian (Beskar Armor), Moff Gideon and The Armorer.
Thanks to DarthChuckMc for the alert.
Twitter follower Alex Z. reports finding part of the newest (and last for 2020) wave of TVC at his Target store (Green Valley/Horizon Ridge – Henderson, NV). Acquisitions included The Mandalorian (Beskar), Moff Gideon, and The Armorer.
This is the way.
Entertainment Earth is now taking preorders for Funko’s next wave of Star Wars Concept Series POP!s. Characters include Darth Vader, C-3PO, R2-D2 and Yoda. Expected arrival: Feb 2021.
While looking for new info regarding upcoming product for 2021, something interesting developed. As some may know, the production title for the new animated spin-off series, The Bad Batch, was “Cookies”. There have been some products tied to that code name, most prominently an assortment of POP!s from Funko which I tweeted about a week ago. The other day, I ran across a Hasbro product bearing a related code name. In order to protect those who are sensitive to spoilers, you’ll have to click through for the identity of this character.

It appears that the upcoming Target Exclusive 6″ TBS Remnant Stormtrooper has started to hit stores. Instgram follower NostalgicAdam sends word on finding a couple in a store in So Cal. They are street dated for Nov. 29. Price: $19.99 DPCI: 087-16-2844.
As mentioned on Hasbro’s last Fan First Friday, they’ve gone back and tweaked the cardback for the upcoming TVC Boba Fett (ROTJ) figure to more closely match the original Kenner release. The accent color has been adjusted to yellow and the reference photo has been zoom out for a “better” look at the character. The first orange version (left above) will be available initially then replaced as a running change.
