Rumor Report: 6″ Six Eyes Coming Soon?

Now that we have a name to go with the face, we can share a rumor of a new 6″ Black Series Argus “Six Eyes” Panox coming for Solo: A Star Wars Story. Not much is known (yet) in terms of availability but you can bet heavily that you’ll see it on shelves this year.

Note: In mythology, a being “Argus Panoptes” was said to have had a hundred eyes. Nice that the mythological names are carrying through to the characters from Solo too.

Rumor Report: New Force Link 2.0 with Exclusive The Last Jedi Figure(s)

In my searches for new, unannounced products* today I managed to find a listing for an item that includes 5 Force Link 2.0 figures. It is unknown if it is another playset or a simple figure multipack but it includes at least one exclusive figure – Holographic Maz Kanata, plus Rey (Island Journey), Kylo Ren, a First Order Stormtrooper and Poe. I will share more details such as price and availability when possible.

*All rumors are unofficial and subject to cancellation by the manufacturer. No proprietary (non-public) information was used in the assemblage of this report.

Rumor Report: Even More Mighty Muggs On The Way

Hasbro is really banking on the success of the Mighty Muggs line. As we reported last month with the rumor of 8 more on the way, you can now double that as I have found listings for 8 more. Click on through for the list that includes characters from Rogue One, Solo, A New Hope, Return of the Jedi and The Phantom Menace.

Rumor Report: “Solo” Vehicle Class B Assortment

As we continue to assemble our upcoming checklist for the product launch on April 13  for Solo: A Star Wars Story, we’ve heard of two more vehicles coming as part of the Class B assortment. One is a repack from The Last Jedi – the A-Wing Fighter with Tallie, the other is rumored to be Han’s Landspeeder (with Han) as seen in the leaked production photos as well as the LEGO set (75209). Considering the number of repacks and non-Solo film related figures/vehicles coming out that day, the merchandising tie-ins seem to be quite low – maybe lower than Rogue One.

Rumor Report: Force Link Snoke To Be Individually Released?

For those that didn’t shell out the cash for the BB-8 Mega Playset, (or by one loose off of eBay) your 3.75″ Force Link figure collection has a glaring hole. Even though there is an all-new super articulated Supreme Leader Snoke coming in the first wave of the Vintage Collection in April, rumor is he will also be available as an individually carded figure in the Force Link/Star Wars Universe line. Look for him to possibly ship along side the Princess Leia Hoth and Maz Kanata (with jetpack) carded figures in the spring.

Rumor Report: What We Know For Solo

With The Last Jedi in the rear view mirror for many, we can continue our focus to products for Solo: A Star Wars. As a refresher, we revealed through several articles (below in reverse chronological order going back to October) new products from Hasbro and Mattel.

Stay tuned for a more accurate breakdown of the first wave (wave 16?) of 6″ Black Series figures that will include characters from Solo: A Star Wars Story very soon.

Also, a friendly tip: 99% of the products with UPCs that we have shared over the months, can be found directly on Amazon.com and Walmart.com with a little app-fu and the barcode scanner built into their respective apps. You’re welcome :).

Rumor Report Update: New Forces of Destiny Product Coming Soon

We’ve received some inside info that Hasbro has some new merchandising coming soon for the Forces of Destiny Adventure Figure line. Word is that there are Creatures and Droids assortments coming for around $10 as well as a potential vehicle for $60 $30. More details to come as we get them.

Update: I incorrectly listed the vehicle price as $60, the MSRP is actually a more palatable $29.99.
