Target is finally processing and shipping preorders for the long-awaited Black Series Boba Fett (Droids) figure. If you recall, this figure went up for preorder on Sept. 24, 2021 and it is now just hitting stores in the U.S.
Instagram follower Roger M. reports finding a case of the long-awaited TVC Star Wars Droids Boba Fett figure at a store in the Dayton, OH area.
Target has started sending out preorder notifications for the upcoming excclusive TVC Droids C-3PO. It looks like they will start shipping around the week of Dec. 13-20. The other two (R2 and Fett) should not be too far behind.
In-hand shots of the upcoming Target exclusive “TVC” Star Wars Droids Boba Fett confirm that these figures (Fett, C-3PO and R2-D2) are not numbered in sequence with the Vintage Collection line and do not carry the TVC logo either.
Thanks to Alan Ngai Lun Li from the Star Wars The Vintage Collection Group on Facebook for sharing the images,

Confirming our rumor from a couple days ago, Target will be offering 3 Vintage Collection figures for Boba Fett, R2-D2 and C-3PO each in their Droids deco – and each one comes carded in special packaging with a collector coin! Links below – preorder tomorrow at 9am ET.
It appears that the Target exclusive Boba Fett that we rumored about the other day is in fact from the Star Wars Droids animated series (and not a POTF2 version) to commemorate the Lucasfilm 50th Anniversary. Target link below – preorder tomorrow 9am ET.
Thanks to Boba Fett Fan Club for the heads-up.
Today, I received info on 3 new code names and from what I’m told they correlate to 3 upcoming Target Exclusive Lucasfilm 50th Anniversary Vintage Collection figures to commemorate the Star Wars Droids animated series. The 3 code names are as follows:
“Aquarius” – Boba Fett
“Pisces” – C-3PO
“Taurus” – R2-D2
It can be assumed that these will be redecos of existing molds and be carded on the TVC style card back with animated art from the cartoon used as the “film out” (like the Walmart Exclusive TVC Clone Wars figures). These figures retail for $15.99 each but it is unknown when they will be available for preorder or in-stores.
UPC, DPCI, TCIN info has been added to our Master List for these Droids figures
To clarify, these figures ARE NOT the “Periwinkle”, “Violet” and “Mauve” TVC figures we erroreously hinted at yesterday. These purple tinted codes tie to 3 different figures altogether. : )
