It looks like there is another 6″ Black Series Gaming Greats figure headed to GameStop soon. YouTuber UsualMike found a Scout Trooper from Jedi: Fallen Order at his store in Australia, unfortunately he wasn’t able to purchase it but snapped a quick image for proof.
Since this report, I was contacted by a GS employee and was told that this figure will go up for sale on October 9 and will be the last Gaming Great figure this year.
Today, Lucasfilm has officially announced Mando Monday and with it a slew of new (albeit previously rumored/leaked) products from Hasbro, Funko and more. Below you can find the links to the rumored Credit Collection of Black Series figure with decos based on their artwork from The Mandalorian and a card design emulating the Vintage Kenner packaging. Each figure also includes a “Credit” from the series – a pack-in calling back to the days of Power of the Force. Preorders open at 4pm ET for $24.99 each. (Heavy Mando is $34.99).

Shipments for the upcoming 6″ Black Series Darth Nihilus Gaming Greats figure have started arriving in warehouses in Canada for release next month as well as cases of the upcoming Black Series “Bobby” (IG-11) figure for the yet-to-be-announced Credit Collection. I imagine the latter will be revealed next week at Hasbro Pulse Con.
In a surprise reveal (and confirmation of a previous rumor), GameStop is now taking preorders for their exclusive 6″ Black Series Darth Nihilus (Gaming Greats) figure from KOTOR. Expected released date in Oct. 26. Thanks to figurebrian on Instagram for the heads up.
