6″ TBS Range Trooper (Holiday Edition) Revealed
Thanks to an image from Instagram follower @starwarspoodoo we have our first look at the upcoming 6″ Black Series Range Trooper (Holiday Edition) figure. There have been a few rumored TBS figures for the holidays but I don’t think many are prepared for this. Based on the social media responses I’ve received after posting this, they are overwhelmingly positive. I believe this is the Target Exclusive version priced at $24.99 and includes the Santa-esque Range Trooper, a Rudolph the red nosed reindeer inspired D-O and some icy weaponry.
It’s unknown if we will see this officially revealed tomorrow.

Upcoming Black Series Figures Arriving In Canada Warehouses
Shipments for the upcoming 6″ Black Series Darth Nihilus Gaming Greats figure have started arriving in warehouses in Canada for release next month as well as cases of the upcoming Black Series “Bobby” (IG-11) figure for the yet-to-be-announced Credit Collection. I imagine the latter will be revealed next week at Hasbro Pulse Con.
Walgreens 6″ TBS Clone Trooper Lieutenant Sold Out/Removed Online
You may have missed our social media notifications via Instagram, Twitter and Patreon early this morning (especially those on the West Coast) you may have also missed the online release of the Walgreens exclusive 6″ Black Series Clone Trooper Lieutenant. It was available for a couple of hours but it started disappearing from carts and then the page was removed from Walgreens.com altogether. Luckily there have been a a lot of retail sightings as well so hopefully this won’t prove to be as difficult as their last Black Series release.

Rumor Confirmed: 6″ TBS Incinerator Trooper In-Hand Shots
Instagram follower @clone_cooper_customs has provided us the first in-hand look at the upcoming 6″ Black Series Incinerator Trooper from The Mandalorian. As you can see, it closely matches the trooper’s design from the series and includes a nice flame effect tucked back behind the figure’s left arm.
Update: this release also confirms that the Incinerator Trooper is (03) in the series followed by The Armorer (04) as shown in the circled area on the back of the box.
Rumor Report Update: 6″ TBS Mandalorian Build Up Pack Info From Target
Back in June, there was word that a deluxe “build up” pack was headed to the Black Series line for The Mandalorian. Later that month, additional info came to light which was thought to clarify that listing as being for the Vintage Collection. I received a new UPC over the weekend to research and found this morning that it is listed at Target as “STAR WARS MANDO BUILD UP PACK” and confirms the original report of it being for The Black Series. The price on this set is $34.99 and the DPCI is shown above in the image. So, it appears that we are in fact getting TWO Mandalorian build up packs – one for TBS and one for TVC.
Obviously, no official word on availability, but since it’s not showing in various other systems in the U.S., it may be a Target Exclusive.
