Recent shipping data shows that there is some sort of convention exclusive figure/pack arriving in the U.S.. It is currently unknown what “Con Ex 4” includes but it does confirm the existence of one of our rumored items on our Master List. While this may be an exclusive for a future event like SDCC, it could also simply be something for Hasbro Pulse, similar to the Black Series Super Battle Droid & C-3PO/Battle Droid 2pk as that set had the code name of “Conv Excl 1”. Maybe this is something that will be announced Friday at the May 3rd Fanstream?
Stay tuned for additional updates as we learn more.
Doing some digging this morning, I was able to find a new Vintage Collection code name “Declan” which corresponds to an as-of-yet unannounced playset or vehicle. The dimension of this item (in terms of packaging) seems to be close to previous playsets like the Tantive IV and Carbon Freezing Chamber. If it is a vehicle, the size would most closely correlate to the Imperial Troop Transport. I’ll continue to search the streets for more info and update when possible.
Update: Price is set at $59.99 so I’m going to assume this is a playset
We’ve added a few more Black Series code names recently to our Master List. It is unknown who these characters but “SPRINT” and “MARATHON” are likely Target exclusives. We will update when we learn more about these and the other codes.
Another Vintage Collection vehicle code name has been found and this one may tie to the rumored N-1 Starfighter from The Book of Boba Fett/The Mandalorian. “Bridgeport” looks to be due late 2023 with a price in the $140 range.
Now that the small vehicle “expression” is returning the the Vintage Collection, it looks like we can expect more releases of that type and price point in 2023. Today we’ve added “Charlie” to the list of code names, and like the ROTJ Speeder Bike “Caitlin”, it too is priced at $44.99.
Following up on yesterday’s TVC news, I’ve added ten additional TVC code names to our list of upcoming product for 2023. All of these look to be basic figures with the standard mainline pricepoint. This brings our count up to nearly 40 TVC items that we have yet to correlate with pipelined or unannounced products.
As a follow-up to our exclusive report from January, it appears that the Black Series figure code named “Rouge” has started to arrive in the U.S. according to recent shipping info. The identity of the figure is unknown as of yet but the DPCI and TCIN info is shown above along with the price. It is suspected that this item is a Target exclusive as the info doesn’t show in any other U.S. retailers’ systems (yet). Stay tuned as we try to uncover more.
We have updated our Master List today with the addition of 5 new Vintage Collection code names – each one carrying a Maine city theme. These are tentatively part of one wave and with everything we know so far these will probably be released in 2023.
We have updated our Master List today with the addition of 7 new Black Series code names – each one carrying a Texas city theme. These are tentatively part of one wave and with everything we know so far these will probably be released in 2023.
