Thank you sir, may I have another? EBGames looks to have another unannounced figure in their system. Labeled “SW BL CLONE TROOPER LT” this could in fact be a Phase I Clone Trooper with blue armor flashed from Attack of the Clones. Thanks to @wingorlose on Instagram for the intel and image.
UPDATE: Facebook follower Avi German notes on our Facebook page that Cad Bane was also listed via EBGames. If accurate, the above clone is probably the unidentified trooper from Wave 27 in our Master List that includes Hoth Rebel Trooper, Incinerator Trooper, Han Solo (ROTJ), Leia (ROTJ), Luke Skywalker (ROTJ) and Cad Bane.
EBGames Canada Update: It looks like they are also taking preorders for a Gaming Greats Jango Fett (from Bounty Hunter?) and the popular Purge Trooper from Jedi Fallen Order – thanks to Gord P. on Instagram for the skus.
The 6″ Black Series “Gaming Greats” subline of figures may have a few more surprises left. According to @t0ytime on Instagram, EBGames in Canada is currently taking preorders for a Darth Nihilus figure from KOTORII. GameStop is the likely distributor of this figure in the U.S.
Fellow product sleuther, JTPrime has found evidence of an upcoming exclusive Hasbro Clone Trooper pack currently en route to the U.S. Like previous convention exclusives*, they are initially available at shows like SDCC but also available through Hasbro Pulse. It is unclear what scale this is, but I’d bet on this being a Black Series item.
As for Vintage (TVC) product news, stay tuned.
*Obviously, there are no conventions planned in the short term so these will likely go directly to online sales.

The new packaging for 2020 – and confirmation of the 6″ Black Series Zeb Orellios from Star Wars Rebels – has been confirmed via a leak from /tz1994tz on reddit. All new figures beyond wave 25 will feature this new line look and figure packaging will be color coded depending on the source material they are from. Watch for the full reveals later today.
Word is that Hasbro will be officially announcing/launching several new preorders tomorrow for the Black Series line and, if my count is accurate, it could be more than a dozen products. Hasbro Pulse did mention a few weeks ago via a comment on Instagram that the wave with The Mandalorian in Beskar Armor would be available for order on May 28. One could assume that the entire wave will be available (and then some).
The question is, will there be any major surprises? I can think of one and it’s long overdue.
