As a follow up to our report back in March, it appears that the thought-to-be Amazon exclusive Black Series “Haiku” item from The Mandalorian (Season 2) is arriving in the U.S.. No word on when this will go live but it should be with in a few weeks, if not days.
If you missed our tease a couple days ago about this figure you’re in luck as Hasbro (via StarWars.com) has officially revealed their 6″ Black Series George Lucas figure as part of the Lucasfilm 50th Anniversary celebration.
Watch for preorders to open via our sponsors Entertainment Earth, DorksideToys, OldRepublicCollectibles and over in our affiliate store on Amazon.
GameStop is now taking preorders for the exclusive 6″ Black Series RC-1138 “Boss” (Gaming Greats) figure.
On the packaging for today’s freshly revealed TBS Republic Commando “Boss” figure, you can just make out the next figure (08) in the Gaming Greats series. The side art panel shows a gloved, armored trooper of some type wielding a melee weapon of some sort. Feel free to leave your guesses in the comments.
Following up on our rumor from a couple weeks ago, Hasbro has officially announced the next GameStop Exclusive Gaming Greats figure as RC-1138 “Boss” from Star Wars: Republic Commando. Watch for preorders to open soon.

ShopDisney now has in stock their shared POTF2 Black Series exclusives featuring Han Solo, Luke Skywalker and Greedo – priced at $24.99 each.
It looks like we will be getting another 6″ Black Series Gaming Greats figure in relatively short order as info for Gaming Greats figure 07 has been found in GameStop’s system. No word on the identity of the character or expected release date but as things are going, I suspect sometime in early 2022.
A few months ago, a listing for an exclusive Black Series figure surfaced at Target with the code name “Libra“. Since then, we’ve seen various Black Series figures released on commemorative cardback for the Lucasfilm 50th Anniversary. A bit of new information surfaced and it is possible that this figure is Boba Fett. It is known which Fett sculpt will be used but with the recent release of the new ROTJ figure that may be the most appropriate considering the what was releases for POTF2. It is also unknown if this will be on the orange or green card back. I suspect green to go with the recent Princess Leia Organa (Yavin 4) announcement.
Could this be what is being offered next week for Target’s Fall Geek-On on September 24?
