If you were holding out hope for the long rumored TBS Rebels reissues panning out – here’s the proof (including Zeb) as shown by the GameStop system. Also shown TVC Hondo & Fives – thanks to toyshiz and gthec0ollect0r the pics.
Update: GameStop has changed the names of the figures to generic listing using “SW BL #” to correlate with the previously posted list. I have posted above a guide to which figure is which and included the GameStop sku in case you plan on visiting your store and placing a preorder (where applicable).
Update 2: Zeb has now been updated in GameStop’s system to read as “SW BL 1”
Hot Toys has revealed the full image gallery and specs for their upcoming 1:6 Captain Rex figure from The Clone Wars. This all=new version includes several accessories including helmet attachments, an assortment of swappable hands, jet pack, astonishingly life-like portrait of Temuera Morrison, blasters and pistols, and the 332nd Company helmet honoring Ahsoka Tano.
Amazon has sent out delay notifications to those who preordered the 6″ Black Series Carbonized Darth Vader and the 6″ Black Series 40th Anniversary Han Solo in Carbonite figures. The new anticipated release date is December 2020. No word yet if orders of these figure from Hasbro Pulse will suffer the same delay.
Hasbro’s Star Wars Brand Team held a Google Hangout with groups of several fan sites to answer questions regarding their various lines. Below you will find links the questions and answers that some of the sites submitted.
The long rumored third wave of figures in the 6″ Black Series TESB 40th Anniversary assortment have now popped up in the Walmart app. As you may recall, this wave consists of the Snowtrooper, Luke Skywalker (Dagobah), Chewbacca, Boba Fett and Darth Vader. The listing of these figures suggest that preorders will open in the near future. (These are not Walmart exclusives and pages are not yet active).
Last week I posted word of a handful of potential exclusives coming from Hasbro in late 2020. Today I can publish 10 hints to aid in your speculation.
For this group of 5 exclusives: None are clone characters None are Jedi/or former Jedi characters None are members of The Ghost crew characters None are PT characters None are OT characters None are ST characters One item is TVC One figure is an alien One is a vehicle Two items have never been released by Hasbro before All five are related by their source material
As I mentioned in the previous report, it will be interesting to see how these are distributed due to the cancellation/closure of large venues.
Today officially marked the end of The Clone Wars and it did not disappoint and it exceeded expectations for most. When we were younger, we always wanted to know what happened during The Clone Wars as referenced by Obi-Wan Kenobi in A New Hope and now we have our definitive answer through amazing storytelling, visuals and music. The series came a long way in not only effects but in how fans received the show and in the end, cemented itself as an essential part of the Star Wars mythos.
Thank you Lucasfilm, George, Dave, Kathleen, the entire production crew and cast, and Disney+.
