Today was a huge day for many collectors in search of the new 6″ Black Series Clone Wars figures at Target. We received and read dozens of reports of them being found up and down the coasts and through the midwest. Don’t pay scalper prices. Don’t believe stores that say they are discontinued or are not getting them. Network with your fellow collectors in order to help each other to complete your set.
Also, we’d like to thank those who sent kind words via social media and emails on how our reporting and information (particularly the DPCIs and availablility) helped you on your hunt for these figures.
One of the first acquisitions of the new 6″ Black Series Clone Wars figures has happened via Instagram follower EnchantedJedi. He was able to score Clone Pilot Hawk from a Target in Roswell, New Mexico. If you have collector friends in the area, now’s the time.
In this crucial time in which the #TimeForTonnika campaign is underway, false information has been spreading surrounding the Tonnika Sisters and why action figures have not been made of them. In this video, I’m going to give you the facts, dispelling the falsehoods that have been circulating recently.
As we theorized back in April, I was able to confirm that the 4 Target Exclusive Black Series figures from The Clone Wars (Obi-Wan, Anakin, ARC Trooper Echo and Clone Pilot Hawk) are indeed a part of the Father’s Day promo and will be located in a special section in stores set to launch* on May 23. Other Star Wars items include clothing and POP!s.
*YMMY whether your store sets before or after that planned date.
On this episode we talk about The Bad Batch on Disney+(no spoilers), Hasbro’s Fan First May the Fourth livestream event and the #TimeForTonnika petition started by Victoria’s Cantina. Please make sure to click here and sign the petition on change.org to let Hasbro, Disney & Lucasfilm know that we really need Tonnika Sisters made for The Vintage Collection.
Online retailer Zavvi has preorders available for the Target Exclusive Clone Wars figures. I plead ignorance on their reliabliity or shipping practices but if you’re desperate for an alternative they may be for you.
