Hasbro has announced their next Star Wars Fanstream for new Vintage Collection and Black Series announcements/reveals will be held on February 1 at 11am ET. Word on the holonet is there will be a lot of complaining and pitting the scales against each other.
It has been a while since finding a new wave of Black Series (or anything SW) at retail, but this morning I found a fresh case of Wave 34 at Target. As you are undoubtedly aware, this wave marks the last of the window packaging before the mainline switch to PFP.
We have also come across information for 3 new Target exclusive Black Series figures with code names “Warm”, “Cold, and “Icy”. It is currently unknown who they are or when they’ll be released but given their climate theme, they should all be related from the same source material, and if I had to speculate, they are from The Mandalorian. Each are priced at $27.99.
We’ve added these to the updated 2023 Master List for future reference.
Check your inboxes for notifcation from Walmart regarding the exclusivev Black Series Cassian Andor (Aldhani Mission) figure as they are now filling and shipping preorders.
Sponsor Entertainment Earth is now taking orders for the Black Series Scout Trooper (Holiday Edition) figure (previously exclusive to Walmart).
California retailer ToyHideout has posted in-hand images of the recently announced Vintage Collection Endor Bunker, Deluxe Paz Vizsla and the Black Series Scorch Gaming Greats figure. Hopefully we won’t have to wait 4-5 months for these to be filled through preorders.
Walmart has been sending out cancellation notifications for some orders of Black Series Scout Trooper (Holiday Edition) and Wookiee (Halloween Edition) preorders. Fortunately the Scout Trooper has been surfacing in stores for a few weeks. If you’re looking to still get the Wookiee, Entertainment Earth still has them for preorder with an expected delivery date of next month.
