TBS Rumor Report Update: 4 Lucasfilm (Comic-Based) Black Series Figures

As a follow-up to our report from last week, it is rumored that the 3 figures comprising the rest of the Marvel comic-themed fan channel Black Series figures include Princess Leia, Darth Vader (Redeemed) and Sargeant Kreel. Thanks to figurebrian on Instagram for the heads up.

UPDATE: Code names added for each (note, the month names are codes, not their release dates)

TBS Rumor Report: 4 Lucasfilm (Comic-Based) Black Series Figures

With the recent announcement of Black Krrsantan (code name “January”) and the discovery of code name “September” a few weeks ago for the Black Series line, we think we can safely report the preorder of 4 Lucasfilm Publishing figures this year. This would mirror last year’s fan channel release of 4 comic-based sets for Lucasfilm’s 50th Anniversary campaign. Hopefully the remaining 3 will be better received than Black Krrsantan.

Rumor Report: Hasbro’s Fan First Tuesday: What To Expect on May 4th?

I’ve been doing some research and conferring with sources over the past few days to get some sort of grasp on what may (and may not) be revealed and available for preorder tomorrow. That being said, take what I say with a grain of salt to tamp down lofty expectations.

Hasbro Star Wars Brand March Match-Up: TBS vs. TVC

March is a big month for sports and it looks like Hasbro will continue to play their game – pitting their champs against one another for collectors’ attention (and money). To recap, March started out with a home run with the launch of preorders for the new 6″ Black Series Wrecker figure and on Monday of this week, we saw them kick a field goal with the preorders for the reworked TVC Endor Leia, Paploo, and AT-ST Driver. It was a relatively easy score — keeping the season ticket holders happy — despite the continued use of that dilapidated Walmart stadium. Next week soon I hear we’ll get a pre(order)-game for four new (previously rumored) 6″ Black Series “LFL50” figures: “BASKETBALL”, “FOOTBALL“, “SOCCER” and “BASEBALL” ahead of more new products at the Fan Fest Home Opener on April 9.
