For those rushing to get the new Target Exclusive 6″ Black Series Chewbacca, pay special attention to the rifle as there are errors circulating where the rifle is missing the sliding fore-stock.
Thanks to Instagram follower porkins_pics for the heads-up.
I managed to score the Target Exclusive 6″ Black Series Chewbacca (Vandor-1) this morning and I thought I’d give my initial “hot take” on this latest iteration of the famed Wookiee.

Twitter follower Shatterstar_03 send word that he found the Exclusive 6″ Black Series Clone Commander Wolffe at EBGames in Toronto Canada. These should start hitting GameStop, B&N and Disney Store relatively soon.
Your mileage may vary, but if you aren’t seeing Hasbro’s new The Vintage Collection line at your local Walmart store, you may want to check the clearance aisle.
Topps has released a new trading card for their countdown to Solo: A Star Wars Story campaign, and I noticed that Beckett crew member, Val, is dressed as a mudtrooper on Mimban. Could this be how we are getting the much clamored for “mudtrooper” in the 6″ Black Series line we posted a couple weeks ago? I would not be surprised.
You may recall our report from a couple weeks ago where are some new 6” Black Series figures were found via a Brickseek. We now know what wave(s) to expect them in thanks to a tip from reader Benjamin I. Wave 19 looks to include Val (Mimban), the Imperial Patrol Trooper and L3-37 and Wave 20 should include Dengar, Lando (Skiff Guard Disguise) and Princess Leia (Hoth). Carry-forwards/repacks for these two cases are unknown at this time, but we will update as soon as we know.
Here is a preemptive warning to those expecting a Behind the Workbench booklet for the Jabba’s Sail Barge. Due to the oversized envelope and the average size mailboxes people have, letter carriers are forced to fold/bend/crease the booklets to fit, yielding less than ideal conditions for this limited edition document. I would think a simple “DO NOT BEND” stamp could have alleviated some of the potential damage.
