Live. Die. Repeat. That is the tag line of another franchise, but it’s sadly applicable to today’s mediocre fanstream of retools, repacks, refreshes, or what ever other corpo jargon you’d like to employ here.

Recent shipping data shows that the Walmart exclusive Black Series R4-6D0 (Greef Karga’s Droid) is now arriving in the U.S.. Note: preorders have yet to be offered for this figure.
Hasbro has confirmed that there will indeed be a Hasbro Pulse Star Wars Fanstream on YouTube next Tuesday, Jan. 23 at 11am ET, revealing new Vintage Collection and Black Series products. Preorders will open starting Wednesday, Jan. 24 at 1pm ET.
Some collectors have started to receive email notifications from Target requesting payment source updates for their Black Series Clone 2pk preorders. When you select a new, or even current payment source, you are met with an approval to charge the new, corrected price ($44.99 each) – not the original price ($24.99 each). I was also going to be charged shipping despite being over the $35 threshold. I suggest if you received the email, contact Target customer service directly to try to get your order sorted out. Act quickly as the order will auto-cancel if not addressed by the date in your email.
Let us know if you have success in having Target honor your original preorder price.
It was only a matter of time but Target finally updated the error price ($24.99) of the exclusive Black Series Lieutenant/332nd Ahsoka’s Clone Trooper 2pk to the proper pricepoint ($44.99). Existing preorders should retain their lower price.
Recent shipping data shows that the Hasbro Pulse/ShopDisney exclusive Black Series Clones of the Republic pack featuring Mace Windu and the 187th Legion Clone Trooper are arriving in the U.S.. Expected fulfillment is set for May 1, 2024, but with how Hasbro has been filling orders months in advance, that date is far from set in stone.
Sponsor Entertainment Earth is now taking preorders for the Black Series Captain Cardinal Helmet (previously exclusive to Target in 2020).
Target is now taking preorders for their exclusive Funko POP! Bo-Katan Kryze figure from The Mandalorian. This version depicts her wielding the darksaber and deflector shield.
