Although the Target exclusive 6″ Black Series Chewbacca (Vandor-1) is starting to hit pegs across the US, but collectors are running into being blocked at checkout due to its official May 1 street date (per our report from April 13.)
Thanks to soybean311 on Twitter for the report.
As many of our fellow collectors have experienced, retailers seem to be on their own schedule (feels like a store-by-store basis) on getting new product onto the pegs for Hasbro’s latest lineup of Star Wars merchandise.
So if you haven’t seen many signs of new stock yet, it might just mean the stores you are hitting just haven’t made it a priority yet. I’ve seen this slow trickle in my neck of the woods, then yesterday found a Target that had finally set aside some time and shelf space to get new items out.
So, don’t give up too early – and share your finds too (or lack thereof) after the jump!
We have acquired the details (UPC/DPCI and release date) for the Target Exclusive 6″ Black Series Chewbacca (Vandor-1) from Hasbro. According to Brickseek and our contact at Target, collectors can expect it in early May for $19.99. We’ve updated our Master List for these details as well.
Thanks to TargetGod for the assist on this information.
Despite what the official Disney Consumer Products press release stated on Monday, I’m not too confident that collectors will be able to score the new 6″ Black Series Chewbacca (Vandor-1) from Solo: A Star Wars Story tomorrow. Unless there is a surprise drop shipment, you might want to adjust your expectations for a time frame closer to May 1.
For those wanting to plan ahead on their Black Series purchases, here are the details for Wave 18 (2018 wave 3).
Correlating UPCS/SKUs for the above can be found on our Master UPC/DPCI/SKU List.
Funko has issued their own press release for their upcoming Solo: A Star Wars Story products available starting this Friday April 13 including a slew of exclusives.

If your local Target store starts putting out Solo launch toys early, don’t be surprised to get a “denied” message at the register… except for one group of items that are being allowed for sale.
A new image of the Target Exclusive POP! Han Solo from Funko has made its way online via social media. Click the image above for a closer look. Below is the pertinent DPCI and UPC info per our reveal last month. Thanks to @DisFunko on Twitter for the heads-up/
UPC: 889698269728/DPCI: 323-01-1699
Note: The numbering for this figure is incorrect (which is a pervasive issue for Funko). #248 is already in use on the Mudtrooper.
