Those that preordered the exclusive 6″ Black Series Rey (Starkiller Base) figure from Kmart have a new reason to pause when checking their mailboxes. There are reports people are receiving the exclusive Kylo Ren instead of the Rey figure that was ordered.
@yak_face Kmart gave me Kylo Starkiller instead of Rey after I purchased it online. Arrrgh!!! I'm having the worst luck trying to get one.

About a month ago, an unnamed mystery build-a-droid astromech surfaced online. Various theories exist as to the potential release of this figure, but with the recent ramp up of the Star Wars Day/May Fourth promotions, I theorize that this will be a Disneyland Park Commemorative Figure. A recent blog post states that special “commemorative merchandise” will be available that day, and based on the black/yellow/white colors of the logo, the corresponding colors of the droid and the precedent for Disney releasing Limited Edition astromechs, this seems to fit that theory quite well.
