A new images showing 12 Mystery Minis for Solo: A Star Wars Story give us the first glimpse of a couple new characters. Based on some reference that I have, I believe that the 1/36 character is Dryden Vos (middle row, far right) played by Paul Bettany. As for the figure on the lower right, he/she is a mystery for now.
Brickseek triggers again! Some of the Force Link 2.0 figures that we listed last month have been found while sleuthing through the online public database. Figure data includes UPCs and Walmart SKUs for Val, Rio Durant, L3-37, Mudtrooper, Luke Skywalker (ROTJ) and Royal Guard (ROTJ). Pertinent info as been added to our expanding Master List for quick reference as well.
After some digging on that taboo resource, Brickseek, I managed to find the UPCs and Walmart SKUs for the new figures in wave 2 and 3 of the 2018 Vintage Collection (which we’ve had in our Master List for weeks). You can see the info in the graphic above or check it out in our list with the full case breakdown of the waves. I’ve also taken the liberty of adding each of the figures to our Amazon Associates page. You can’t order them yet but you can add them to your personal lists for future ordering reference when available.
Swung into my local Denny’s this morning to check out their new menu and managed to score the full set of 12 Exclusive Topps Trading Cards for Solo: A Star Wars Story. Click on through to check out a few images including the two puzzles they form when you get all 12.
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.
As part of Denny’s marketing event, attendees reveal some of Topps’ exclusive trading cards for Solo: A Star Wars Story and with in the 12, we get a first look at the mudtroooper as well as a new name: Argus “Six Eyes” Panox. Thanks to Corey for the image.
New images added featuring Val, Moloch, Han Solo and Therm Scissorpunch!

I was invited to attend Denny’s exclusive marketing campaign reveal for Solo: A Star Wars Story at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles, CA. and while I couldn’t attend in person (due to the holiday weekend), we do have someone covering the event for us. Look for the official campaign to kick off tomorrow and watch for more details soon.
