A report from the Black Series 6″ Collectors Facebook Group shows that the Revan wave of Black Series figures has started popping up outside of the GameStop stores. Bijan N. found the Snowtrooper and Princess Leia figures at Shopko in Redding, CA. Since they weren’t in the system, he got them for a great deal at $7.49 each.
This wave has also turned up recently at Walmart (Frederick, MD) thanks to a report from Kenny M.
Gizmodo has also revealed a new take on the 6″ Black Series format. Reminiscent of Hasbro’s “Unleashed” line of static figures from a few years ago, the Centerpiece assortment features dynamically posed figures with a display base featuring light effects and sounds. Look for these at retail later this fall for $50 each.
