Some collectors in Canada who preorder the reissued 6″ Clone Captain Rex (#59) have recelive notifications that it has been cancelled by the vendor (i.e. Hasbro). No official word yet on the preorder status here in the U.S.
UPDATE: Gamestop Canada may have cancelled this because there was not ETA for this figure. U.S. retailer Entertainment Earth reopened preorders today but have pushed the release date back from March 2022 to December 2022.

Amazon – Wookiee
GameStop – First Order Stormtrooper
Best Buy – Protocol Droid
