It appears that the Rogue One selection of characters for Black Series will continue expand into 2022 as JediInsider has posted the rumor of an upcoming Saw Gerrera deluxe figure. Maybe we’ll hear something official next month at Hasbro Pulse Con.

Black Series Cobb Vanth Update
In what seems like another lifetime, Hasbro months ago announced via thier “Pipeline Reveals” that Cobb Vanth would be coming to the Black Series line. We’ve heard in recent weeks that he will be released as a Deluxe figure (similar to ROTJ Boba Fett, Jar Jar and Wrecker) and will now be coming sometime in 2022.

Rumor Report: TBS Deluxe Dark Trooper from the Mandalorian Coming 2022
JediInsider is reporting a rumor of a Deluxe Black Series Dark Trooper from The Mandalorian is coming (finally) sometime in 2022. Deluxe of course means a higher price point than the standard Black Series figure so that should put this figure in the $31-$35 dollar range.
No word as of yet for a Dark Trooper for the Vintage Collection.
Even More Price Increases Coming Soon
Another round of price increases are hitting online retailers as the cost of materials and skyrocketing shipping/transportation costs from China affect the market. For example the Black Series line recently increased about $1.50 per standard (non-exclusive) figure, and now another increase of $2.00 is planned pushing MSRPs to near $25. Exclusives will approach $30 and Deluxe figures around $40. Obviously, these increases won’t be limited to Black Series, Star Wars or even Hasbro.

Rumor Report: New 6″ Black Series Credit Collection Exclusives Coming Soon
Over the weekend, I received information for at least two new 6″ Black Series Credit Collection figures – Moff Gideon and The Armorer – coming at some point this year. As you recall, these figures are simple repaints of existing figures made to emulate their concept art shown at the end of each episode of The Mandalorian and released on Vintage-style cardbacks. No word yet as to which retailer(s) they’ll be offered.
Note: the art above may or may not be used as the basis of the figure’s deco and card art.
