Robot Kingdom has listed a new Force Link 2.0 A-Wing stated to be an exclusive at Walmart. No word whether this is just a battle-damaged version of the twice issued blue Resistance A-wing or the red version as seen in The Last Jedi. Hopefully it is the latter with a unique pilot.
Update: this May or may not be exclusive to Walmart in the US.

I managed to score the Target Exclusive 6″ Black Series Chewbacca (Vandor-1) this morning and I thought I’d give my initial “hot take” on this latest iteration of the famed Wookiee.
Although the Target exclusive 6″ Black Series Chewbacca (Vandor-1) is starting to hit pegs across the US, but collectors are running into being blocked at checkout due to its official May 1 street date (per our report from April 13.)
An overseas auction for the upcoming Walmart Exclusive Vintage Collection Rey (Island Journey) #VC122 figure has surfaced on eBay (as well as the exclusive 6″ Black Series Chewbacca and 6″ Mimban Stormtrooper). So, we’ve added the pertinent UPC and SKU info to our expanding Master List for easy reference.
UPDATE: UK collectors can preorder this figure now from In Demand Toys
