Additional searching has turned up info for a repaint of the upcoming Black Series Boba Fett Electronic Helmet in the famous white coloration to commemorate the 40th Anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back.
Searching via the Walmart app and online has yielded results for that still as of yet unannounced Luke Skywalker Snowspeeder Pilot and Hoth Rebel Soldier coming to the 40th Anniversary Collection of 6″ Black Series carded figures to commemorative The Empire Strikes Back. These links join the other 5 figures revealed over the weekend.

DorksideToys has shared with us a new image of the upcoming SDCC exclusive 40th Anniversary 6” Black Series Boba Fett (Kenner) figure . Note the inclusion of the E-11 Stormtrooper blaster rifle which wasn’t shown at SWCC. A nice decision as it’s more “Vintage Kenner-like” to include the Stormtrooper blaster.

It appears that the 40th Anniversary Darth Vader that is reissued for the standard Black Series release (#43) is more than just a simple repack. The paint operations on the helmet have been updated significantly in order to achieve an even better likeness to the screen-used helmet by adding more silver to the neck seal portion. This makes 3 unique decos for this sculpt (red eyes, dark eyes, and dark eyes/silver neck). Click the image above for a closer look.
