Tomorrow at 12PM ET, Hasbro Pulse will be livestreaming new product reveals and preorder info for new Black Series and Vintage Collection products. If you’ve been following our rumor reports over the past couple months, there won’t be too many surprises, if any.
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!
Armed with a dozen codes, I swung by my local Target and scanned a few using the convenient price scanners in the aisle. I got a hit on the bar code for the rumored Deluxe (D4) 6″ Black Series Dagobah Luke with Yoda set.
We’ve known for some time that the Dagobah Luke in this set is the one that will be in the third wave of 6″ 40th Anniversary Collection Black Series figures but a little bogwing told me that the Yoda in this set is different than prior releases.
No official word (or otherwise) on the release date for this set but the price in the U.S. is listed at $44.99. The DPCI has been added to our expanding Master UPC/DPCI/SKU List for quick reference.
Note: This is not a Target exclusive
It looks like Walmart is starting to set their endcaps with new displays featuring the TBS Boba Fett Helmet, TBS 40th Anniversary figures and the Retro Collection TESB Wave. They are not register locked. Thanks to RM from southern Ohio for the images.
In case you missed our posts earlier today via social media, I posted some quick in-hand box and loose shots of the 6″ Black Series “The Child” from The Mandalorian.
The little guy features 7 POA (ball-socket neck, shoulders, wrists and ankles) and includes a plastic case to house his TINY accessories that include the Razor Crest control knob, bone broth bowl, and sorgan frog. Click on through to check out the images and watch for higher-res detailed shots soon.
