Update: Surprise! Two More Black Series Reveals

If you missed these in our Celebration panel coverage, you probably weren’t the only one as they weren’t included in Hasbro’s actual panel. StarWars.com slipped two Black Series reveals in their coverage, the first being a Gaming Greats version of Maul (Old Master) from Battlefront II which will be exclusive to GameStop. The second is a Dok-Ondar from Galaxy’s Edge that will be exclusive to ShopDisney. No word yet on when these go up for preorder.

Update: Preorders open for Darth Maul this Tuesday at 1pm ET at GameStop. Dok-Ondar preorders are available at May 4 at 1pm ET through ShopDisney

Gamestop 50% Off Clearance

Multiples of the above figures have been sitting on clearance at the Gamestop in Arnold, MO during the past few trips I’ve made there.

If you have a Gamestop in your neck of the woods, it might be worth your while to swing by and check out their clearance section – all clearance items are currently marked off 50% off the clearance sticker price.

Personal Note: In my finds, very new TBS are not included, nor are most TVC. But there were decent selections of various 6 inch figures and lots of oddball gift type items, stacks of Funko POPs, etc. An employee grumbled when talking to me tonight, and said they had just received 6 more huge boxes of clearance items from their warehouse that he had nowhere to display, and they needed to move a lot more by Christmas. It might be bit concerning by just how much unsold collectibles product Gamestop could be sitting on right now.

Update: GameStop Prepping Multiple Gaming Greats Preorders

GameStop has started to send out notfications for Black Series “Fixer”, KX Security Droid and B1 Battle Droid Gaming Greats figures. Watch your inbox for order updates and check your doorsteps starting next week.

UPDATE: Notifications are also being received for the Riot Scout Trooper and 13th Battalion Clone Trooper
