Today is the official release date for the Target exclusive Black Series Mandalorian Droids Set and the Black Series Mandalorian Privateer. Both products, depending on your area, should be available in stores and online.
A new image has surfaced via Instagram (via user gethvi) of two upcoming Black Series figures: Savage Opress from The Clone Wars and Prince Xizor from SOTE. From what I’ve heard Savage should be a deluxe release and both figure are expected in 2025.
Walmart.com has updated today with their Collector Con exclusives. Their exclusive Black Series Mandalorian Shriek-Hawk Trainers 2pk will be available for preorder on July 25 at 7am PT.
Hasbro continues their reissues program for the Black Series line today with preorders for the Clone Trooper (Halloween Edition) and the Incinerator Trooper Helmet. These are available through our sponsor Entertainment Earth and other fan channel retailers at 1pm ET.

It looks like the Black Series line will have another new DPCI at Target going forward for 2024 and beyond. Like the Vintage Collection, Target is starting to implement a new Master TBS Assortment DPCI (087-26-3506) hopefully to clear out those forever pegwarming Landos, Greef Kargas and Endor Leias.
Yak’s Top Ten is back, with the focus shifting to characters that have appeared in Star Wars animation.

Amazon has already started to ship orders for the as-of-yet officially announced exclusive Black Series Halloween Edition 2pks. I don’t know why I like these so much more than the Xmas figures they release. Again, these aren’t for everyone, nor are they meant to be, so if they aren’t “your thing”, they are easy enough to ignore until “your thing” comes along. I can say it sure is nice to have something revealed, orderable and released in such short timeframe than waiting weeks/months.
SDCC has updated their information to this year’s show and has now added Hasbro’s Star Wars Panel for July 26 from 2-3pm PT.
Update: Back in stock
Amazon has uploaded info/images for the rumored exclusive Black Series Halloween Edition 2pk featuring the Inquisitor as Dracula and a Duros Bounty Hunters as Frankenstein’s monster. It was available for preorder briefly early this morning. Look for an official announcement soon.
