Well this is sure to make some collectors unhappy. Entertainment Earth will be offering a limited supply of Target exclusives for sale at San Diego Comic-Con. Oddly, Target has yet to fulfill any of their preorders for Black Series Antoch Merrick and Galen Erso.
Target exclusive Retro Collection Chewbacca (Prototype Editon) has started to surface in stores. This group was found in Richmond, VA – image via sandman804 on IG.
A possible new Target exclusive has surfaced for the Vintage Collection code named “Victoria”. This figure is priced at $22.99 – $2 more than the exclusive TVC Boba Fett (Morak). It is unknown what character it may be or its expected release date. DPCI: 087-26-0110 / TCIN: 87046824
Today marks the final reveal for Obi-Wan Wednesdays and with not much surprise we get our speculatedBlack Series Teeka (Jawa). This is a Target exclusive and will be available for preorder tomorrow at 1pm ET.
A couple weeks ago, I posted 17 new code names corresponding to figures in the Vintage Collection. What I failed to notice at the time was that even though they all share the $14.99 pricepoint, there is a new DPCI (087-26-9848)* at Target for these as well. Normally when there is a DPCI change it correlates to a new product line/assortment but I have a sneaking suspicion these figures may all fall into the rumored plastic-free packaging design (PFP). I guess we’ll all have to wait for the official announcement to know for certain.
