Thanks to a post from Michael C. on Facebook, you can now bookmark this link for the Target Exclusive 6″ Black Series Gamorrean Guard.
If you have any Target stores in your area, you may want to swing by and see if your local establishment is receiving some new aisle displays that contain more TVC figures, and even the somewhat elusive Wampa w/ Luke Skywalker. Good luck and happy hunting!
Canadian residents can now preorder the exclusive 6″ Black Series Gamorrean Guard from EB Games.
As for U.S. residents, don’t expect finding this at Target quite yet. While the hard locked street date is June 1, they have yet to arrive stateside.
Starting this Sunday, Target will be relaunching sales for Star Wars merchandise* where shoppers can get $10 off a qualifying $50 purchase or $25 off a qualifying $100 purchase.
*Excludes clearance and LEGO (of course)
Thanks to TargetGod for the alert.
Reports are coming in that the second wave of “Solo” 3.75″ figures are being found at Target stores across the U.S. Be on the lookout, and share your finds in the forums.
For those rushing to get the new Target Exclusive 6″ Black Series Chewbacca, pay special attention to the rifle as there are errors circulating where the rifle is missing the sliding fore-stock.

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!
