It appears that Target will be receiving an exclusive 6″ Black Series figure for the launch of merchandise on Triple Force Friday. An entry in their system lists a figure “Huck1 Copper” with a price point of $24.99. Based on what we know on code names, this is The Mandalorian and based on the leaked “Graphite” version of the Second Sister Inquisitor, the figure and packaging will probably feature a copper-like finish as well. For those keeping track, this will make another known variant joining Graphite, Pearl, and Red Metallic.
Thanks to TargetGod for the intel.
One more reveal for today as I also found an entry for a new 6″ Black Series figure from The Mandalorian codenamed “Bobby”. No clue as to who this is yet but it should be expected soon as it too is headed to the US as you read this.
Additional searching through shipping data has yielded results confirming a 6″ Black Series Purge/Inquisitor Trooper from Jedi: Fallen Order is currently en route to the U.S as well. No word on potential exclusivity of this figure but once I find out more, I’ll provide an update.
Thanks to a tip from a couple sources, I’ve been able to verify some new info for 3 new 6″ Black Series figures coming in 2020, one from each era of the Skywalker Saga (PT, OT and ST). Click on through to check them out.

U.K. retailer Comics & Cocktails has posted the first “unofficial” official image of the upcoming TVC Luke Skywalker (Yavin) #151 figure. Note the slight tweak to the packaging design. Thanks to BossksBounty for the heads up.
Update: On the reverse side of this card back reveals Rey, Sith Jet Trooper, Zorii Bliss, Knight of Ren, and Xwing Luke.
There have been a couple reports going around over the past few weeks regarding the wave breakdown for the first assortment of TVC figures available for Triple Force Friday. I held off on reporting it as I wasn’t convinced in what was being stated (namely the inclusion of Yavin Ceremony Luke), but I can now “unofficially” report that Wave 1 looks to be as shown in the graphic above.
This new also confirms to a degree that there is NO Luke Skywalker X-wing Pilot packed with the rumored/unofficially announced TVC X-wing.
DamingToys – retailer out of Taiwan has posted the first look at the 6” Black Series Yoda (Force Spirit) which confirms our exclusive report from May.
As always, if Hasbro asks us to remove the image we will but again, this was posted publicly for sale by an online retailer.
UPDATE: DamingToys has removed the product stating they were given the wrong solicitation date and it should be available again on Nov. 1. We have removed the image as well in respect to DamingToys. Watch for an early look at this product soon 🙂
UPDATE 2: I did manage to find shipping manifest info for the 6″ Yoda (Force Spirit) figure and its currently on the way to the Port of Long Beach in California.
More products ranging from action figures to roleplay items are currently headed to the US via China and Vietnam. An update to shipping info shows that Hasbro’s E9 Vintage Collection cases, TVC Luke Skywalker (Yavin Ceremony) cases, Mega Mighties, E9 Micro Force, Scream Sabers, E9 Poe Dameron blasters and Sith Trooper blasters are all en route to various ports in the US.
Research via oversea shipping manifests has once again confirmed the rumored and yet unannounced TVC Luke Skywalker’s Red 5 X-wing Fighter and it currently en route to the U.S. as of Aug 13. As a reminder, MSRP is set at $100.
