A link found on an Australian distributor website, reveals an upcoming 6″ Black Series Mandalorian Build-Up Pack from Hasbro. No word on its contents but it sounds like The Mandalorian figure with several additional accessories similar to the Sith Trooper Armory Pack figure from the Vintage Collection. Hopefully it will include the pram for The Child and maybe his newly acquired jetpack. Nevermind, the Beskar Mando includes the jetpack. 😛 How about whistling birds, flame and blaster attachments or a flight stand like the Target Exclusive Marvel Legends Black Widow?
Thank you sir, may I have another? EBGames looks to have another unannounced figure in their system. Labeled “SW BL CLONE TROOPER LT” this could in fact be a Phase I Clone Trooper with blue armor flashed from Attack of the Clones. Thanks to @wingorlose on Instagram for the intel and image.
UPDATE: Facebook follower Avi German notes on our Facebook page that Cad Bane was also listed via EBGames. If accurate, the above clone is probably the unidentified trooper from Wave 27 in our Master List that includes Hoth Rebel Trooper, Incinerator Trooper, Han Solo (ROTJ), Leia (ROTJ), Luke Skywalker (ROTJ) and Cad Bane.
EBGames Canada Update: It looks like they are also taking preorders for a Gaming Greats Jango Fett (from Bounty Hunter?) and the popular Purge Trooper from Jedi Fallen Order – thanks to Gord P. on Instagram for the skus.
Sponsor DorksideToys has passed along final carded images for the upcoming Clone Commander Wolffe, Power Droid and Luke Skywalker (Stormtrooper) figures from The Vintage Collection. As you can see, the fit and finish of the bubbles and the trays now reflect what we’ll see when these ship out to collectors and hit stores.
The 6″ Black Series “Gaming Greats” subline of figures may have a few more surprises left. According to @t0ytime on Instagram, EBGames in Canada is currently taking preorders for a Darth Nihilus figure from KOTORII. GameStop is the likely distributor of this figure in the U.S.
Yak’s Top Ten is back for another round, with the focus shifting over to the conclusion of the sequel trilogy – The Rise of Skywalker.

Yesterday, I teased the reveal of a bit of forthcoming Vintage Collection (TVC) news and now that I’ve some time, here it is. Five new TVC listings have turned up in Walmart’s system* . Interestingly, a new code naming theme has been introduced with this wave with the names of oceans. “Atlantic”, “Pacific”, “Indian”, and “Arctic”. The fifth name looks familiar as the “Omega” name (from The Mandalorian) has turned up in our prior Black Series rumor report. It’s a pretty safe bet that they are the same character, the question is, who is it?
Fellow product sleuther, JTPrime has found evidence of an upcoming exclusive Hasbro Clone Trooper pack currently en route to the U.S. Like previous convention exclusives*, they are initially available at shows like SDCC but also available through Hasbro Pulse. It is unclear what scale this is, but I’d bet on this being a Black Series item.
As for Vintage (TVC) product news, stay tuned.
*Obviously, there are no conventions planned in the short term so these will likely go directly to online sales.
