Recent shipping data shows that the Hasbro Pulse/ShopDisney exclusive Black Series Clones of the Republic pack featuring Mace Windu and the 187th Legion Clone Trooper are arriving in the U.S.. Expected fulfillment is set for May 1, 2024, but with how Hasbro has been filling orders months in advance, that date is far from set in stone.
Sponsor Entertainment Earth is now taking preorders for the Black Series Captain Cardinal Helmet (previously exclusive to Target in 2020).
Hasbro Pulse is starting to process preorders for the Black Series Carson Teva Helmet.
Recent shipping data shows that the Black Series Captain Rex helmet and the Deluxe Paz Vizsla reissue have started to arrive in the U.S.. We will keep an eye on possible order fulfillment with these and update when additional info is known. Projected release dates are March and April/May respectively.

From all of us here at Yakface.com, we would like to wish our readers a Happy New Year. 2023 was an interesting year for collecting, with many amazing Hasbro releases, product arriving earlier than expected in some cases, and lots of toys showing up at discount stores.
We look forward to what 2024 will bring with optimism, and hope that you will continue to follow us this year. With that in mind, we have also been working behind the scenes to bring the Yakface Forums back to life. With this came some housekeeping, so some older threads were victims of Order 66, but we hope our readers will enjoy the new features that we’ve been able to enable. And with this, Yakfinities Customizing Challenges will return in 2024, though things might look a little different this year (more to come on that). The Enloe Trials photonovel series will return as well.
Again, Happy New Year and we look forward to another trip around the sun with all of you.
Sponsor Entertainment Earth has posted in their drop zone that new Star Wars figure preorders will be opening on Wed., January 24 at 1pm ET. Expect reveals and/or leaks before then.
It you are into slightly better versions of problematic figures, there is now a running change for both Black Series Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati where they now have orange-ish hued lightsaber blades. The production runs for these figures initially started with red blades. Keep an eye out at Walmart as both red and orange blade variants of these have been found in stores throughout midwest.
We’ve updated our running list of upcoming and rumored products slated to hit stores and online throughout 2024. We’ve purged many of the released 2023 items from the list, but they can still be found here for your reference. (This old list will not be maintained).
Hasbro Pulse is now taking preorders for their exclusive Black Series C-3PO (B1 Battle Droid Body) & Super Battle Droid 2pk from Attack of the Clones.
