Target is now taking preorders for their exclusive Funko POP! “The Child” (Concerned) figure.
Thanks to Edge of Evolution for the heads up.
Thanks to a direct report from baacara on Instagram, there is confirmation that wave 2 of the 6″ Black Series 40th Anniversary assortment of figures from The Empire Strikes Back has now started to hit Target. This wave consists of Lando Calrissian , Luke Skywalker (Snowspeeder Gear), Dagobah R2-D2, Hoth Rebel Soldier, and Imperial TIE Fighter Pilot. These were all found in Vista, CA.
Target stores have started implementing new 40th Anniversary endcap mixed with various items from Hasbro, LEGO, and Funko. Items include 6″ Black Series, POP!s, lunchboxes, drinkware, apparel, pins and more!
Target’s erroneous register block of wave 1 of the 6″ Black Series 40th Anniversary Collection has been corrected internally and is now set for an April 27 street date. As of yesterday, they were still being denied for sale with a street date of August 1. A local collector (AgentWaWa) attempted to purchase them this morning and was notified of the updated street date. Hang in there if you’ve seen these at retail and have been unable to purchase them, release is imminent.
On a related note, Target preorders are also starting to process.
A follow up report from @staleconversations on Instagram lets us know that the PhotoReal/Repaint wave of Vintage Collection has turned up at Target in Virginia. Sadly, he suggests that C-3PO may be the best of the bunch due to questionable application of deco on the human figures. Click on through to check out additional images of this wave.

Check your local Targets for restocks of the highly sought after (and scalped) exclusive 6″ Black Series Carbonized Mandalorian. My local store (Maple Grove, MN) replenished with 3 cases over night. Helmet nod to a couple collectors I got the chance to speak with this morning as well.
For those holding out on clearance for the Target Exclusive TVC Cave of Evil 3pk, keep an eye out at your local stores as some locations have them marked down as low as $11.98. I picked up a few this morning at my local Fridley, MN store. Your mileage may vary of course.
Funko has official revealed a slew of new POP! figures from The Mandalorian. The sculpt for each figure continue to improve with each subsequent wave and the character selection is spot on as well. Click on through to check them out.
