Now that we have a name to go with the face, we can share a rumor of a new 6″ Black Series Argus “Six Eyes” Panox coming for Solo: A Star Wars Story. Not much is known (yet) in terms of availability but you can bet heavily that you’ll see it on shelves this year.
Note: In mythology, a being “Argus Panoptes” was said to have had a hundred eyes. Nice that the mythological names are carrying through to the characters from Solo too.
We believe we have acquired the details (UPC/DPCI and release date) for the Target Exclusive 6″ Black Series Gamorrean Guard from Hasbro. According to Brickseek and our contact at Target, collectors can expect it in late May/early June for a porcine price of $29.99.

Wave 16 has already started showing up in advance of the street date and Wave 17 may be hot on its heels.
