Take this for what it’s worth but we received info from a retailer that states (via corporate email) that the figures for The Force Awakens are not planned to be released in waves but in one mass shipment for September 4. In essence, everything we see on Force Friday will probably be all that gets replenished until after the film’s debut.
UPDATE:
The Star Wars Black Series Stormtrooper exclusive is sold out today, but will be back tomorrow at #HasbroSDCC while supplies last!

A new Yakfinities Customizing Challenge has just begun – the Pegwarmer Roundup!
