Some interesting new rumors have developed tonight via a new list that was published but Jedi Insider. With that info in hand I took a crack finding info for these figures and low and behold I found corroboration for some of those plus others. In all, there are 15 new Black Series figure listings from The Clone Wars, Rogue One, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi and The Mandalorian for your review.

Instagram follower Jeremy B sends us this image confirming our May report of an upcoming exclusive 6” Black Series Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) figure. A friend of his purchased it from a recent Disney storage sale.
Walmart was originally thought to be the retailer of this yet to be announced exclusive, but based on new info that may not be the case.
9/13: Some additional poking about has also led us to the fact that the new 6″ Black Series Luke Skywalker from Return of the Jedi (which we discovered back in May) will probably be a deluxe release and with a higher price point (similar to General Grievous) than the standard Black Series figure. Still no word on exclusivity or what extras Luke may include.
Update 9/16: Unfortunately, I cross-referenced this figure with another yet to be revealed deluxe figure. ROTJ Luke will feature a standard box size and price point release. Sorry about the mix up. 🙁
