While watching Robo’s review of the new 6″ Black Series Snowspeeder, I noticed an unfortunate error on the graphics behind the cockpit. They have been printed on backwards on both side of the canopy. *Sadface*
Update: correct “ZZ” versions do exist. Which do you have?

It appears there is another “Convention Exclusive” preparing to make landfall soon. JTPrime has posted in the ToyArk forums, the discovery of an item named “E76520000 SW CONVENTION EXCLUSIVE HEROS ENDOR 3 Pcs”. (3 pcs is probably the case pack, not the number of figures in the set.) No word yet whether it is Black Series or TVC, but we should find out soon enough.
