The saga continues with the GameStop being the true phantom menace regarding their exclusive Black Series Duel of the Fates 3pk. Customers that preordered this are now receiving cancellation notifications. They are however still accepting preorders.
Hasbro has announced the first releases to coincide with the “Gift the Galaxy” campaign: The Black Series Clone Commando & Battle Droid (Training) and Black Series Dagan Gera & BX Droid (Hybrid). Preorders launch tomorrow ($44.99 each) at 1pm ET exclusive at Amazon.
Additional details at GamesRadar.
First it was October 24, then November 4, then November 11 and now the latest release date for the Gamestop exclusive Black Series Duel of the Fates 3pk with Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Darth Maul is November 22. With all of the product arriving now just before the holidays, I wouldn’t be surprised if collectors started cancelling these in limbo preorders in favor of some of the newer product releases.
Another unannounced, but rumored figure the Black Series Range Trooper from Andor has surfaced courtesy of Vic Valencia once again. This (likely Target exclusive) figure is number 14 in the mural packaging sequence and that nearly confirms the placement for the unannounced Director Krennic at 13 and another unknown character at 15.
An image has surfaced of an unannounced Black Series 2pk which includes a Phase I Clone Trooper and Super Battle Droid. No word yet as to when this will be available but it will likely be a fan channel exclusive like previous sets or a shared exclusive between Hasbro Pulse and Disney Store.
Thanks to Vic V. For sending the image
