If you follow us on social media, you may have caught this hint from us from about a month ago. It looks like we will be receiving a 6″ Black Series set featuring the Scout Trooper and Speeder Bike from The Mandalorian. Also included in this set is the satchel and The Child plus, what appears to be the small power generator that the two scouts used as target practice. This set should be around $49.99 and may be exclusive to Target.
We’ve read and received reports that the Walmart Exclusive 6″ Black Series Mandalorian Super Commando from The Clone Wars has started hitting stores. The image above was from a store in North Lauderdale, FL and this tweet we posted was from San Antonio, TX.
GameStop has updated their site with a landing page for the upcoming 6″ Black Series Scout Trooper (Gaming Greats) figure from Jedi: Fallen Order. It is not available for order just yet but should be very soon. I also found the preorder SKU (218025) if you are looking to preorder in-store. Expected arrival date of October 28.
Yakface.com may receive product discounts as part of our advertising agreement with DorksideToys.
DorksideToys has opened up preorders for some of the new 6″ Black Series figures from Wave 27 including Cad Bane, Han Solo, Princess Leia, and Luke Skywalker
It looks like there is another 6″ Black Series Gaming Greats figure headed to GameStop soon. YouTuber UsualMike found a Scout Trooper from Jedi: Fallen Order at his store in Australia, unfortunately he wasn’t able to purchase it but snapped a quick image for proof.
Since this report, I was contacted by a GS employee and was told that this figure will go up for sale on October 9 and will be the last Gaming Great figure this year.
Whew! That was a lot to take in for the first day, but I’d say overall that was one of the better Star Wars livestream events put on by the Hasbro team in some time. Even though there weren’t a lot of surprises, they did manage to show a decent amount of product for the brand that also covered many different parts of the Saga.
Well, that escalated quickly. After getting our first look at these figures yesterday, Collectors_place from Instagram posted finding Wave 27 at Target. When it rains it pours, hopefully Hasbro will announce these today at Hasbro Pulse Con.
One final update tonight is the reveal of the Imperial Stormtrooper (Holiday Edition) courtesy of StarWarsPoodoo. This festive trooper is wearing an ugly Christmas sweater featuring an AT-AT and include a porg and vibro-axe.
StarWarsPoodoo also provides us a first look at the standard released of Cad Bane from The Black Series Wave 27. This is the same figure from the upcoming exclusive set sans TODO-360.
