There is a rumor circulating on the Black Series Canada Facebook group of an EB Games listing (758481) for a 6″ Black Series Gaming Greats Cal Kestis figure ($44.99). No word yet on what skin/outfit it may utilize but, if true, I’d imagine the ponchoed look and possibly a recolor of BD-1.
UPDATE: Images of this figure have now been revealed via Mephitsu.co.uk
Here is the GameStop SKU and Price: #236078 / $29.99
UPDATE 2: Now available on GameStop.com
Over the weekend, I joined Tim from Bossk’s Bounty and Tyler from SWTVC to discuss the Vintage Collection – where it is and where we think it’s going. Give it a watch and follow both Bossk’s Bounty and SWTVC via their social channels for passion Star Wars content focusing on the 3.75″/Vintage Collection scale.
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.
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.
Originally rumored back in June, Instagram follower @anerdydad has shared the first look at the 6″ Black Series Electrostaff Purge Trooper that is exclusive to Gamestop (US) and EBGames (Canada).
The June 5th rumor of there being a Gaming Greats release of Jango Fett (Bounty Hunter) for the Black Series line has been confirmed thanks to new images released by Hasbro and passed on to us via Instagram follower figurebrian.
Update: available for preorder now at GameStop.
EBGames Canada Update: It looks like they are also taking preorders for a Gaming Greats Jango Fett (from Bounty Hunter?) and the popular Purge Trooper from Jedi Fallen Order – thanks to Gord P. on Instagram for the skus.
The 6″ Black Series “Gaming Greats” subline of figures may have a few more surprises left. According to @t0ytime on Instagram, EBGames in Canada is currently taking preorders for a Darth Nihilus figure from KOTORII. GameStop is the likely distributor of this figure in the U.S.
Preorders for the GameStop Exclusive (US) 6″ Black Series Stormtrooper Commander Gaming Greats figure from The Force Unleashed are now starting to process and charges are being seen on customer’s bank statements. Keep an eye on your order(s) for notifications.
A source who wishes to remain anonymous, sent us a link confirming the upcoming 6″ Black Series Shadow Stormtrooper “Gaming Greats” figure from The Force Unleashed. Still no official word on this figure but hopefully we hear something soon.
