Amazon is now taking preorders for the exclusive Black Series Mandalorian/Ahsoka Tano/Grogu Set revealed today. This set feature tweaked versions of existing figures to incorporate new deco (Mando) and new accessories (beskar spear, cloak for Ahsoka) and an updated Grogu — all within new Plastic-Free Packaging (PFP). The price $66.99 with an expected release date of Spring 2023, though it may be much sooner as I already see record of it arriving in the U.S.
We received reports that the long-awaited Mandalorian & Grogu (Maldo Kreis) set has started to surface in stores. These should start becoming more prevalent over the next week or so as the clearance items are replaced with “new” products.
Target has finally updated some of their open ended release dates for various Black Series and Vintage Collection preorders. I look we can expect to see movement on TVC Axe Woves, TVC Boba Fett (Morak), TBS Mandalorian & Grogu (Maldo Kreis), and the TBS Dark Trooper on October 2.
Collectors have started to receive preorders for the Amazon exclusive Black Series Cad Bane (Bracca) figure from The Bad Batch – but be warned. Some collectors have reported on receiving the Obi-Wan Kenobi (Wandering Jedi) figure instead. On the flip side, collectors that did order the Wandering Obi-Wan received this Cad Bane in their shipment. Clearly a mix up and select Amazon distribution centers.
Collectors who preordered their Black Series Princess Leia Organa and Darth Vader (Redeemed) Comic/Publishing figures through Hasbro Pulse have started to receive them over the last couple of days. These two figures close out wave 2 and now collectors eagerly anticipate the next wave which is rumored to include Mic from Scar Squadron/Task Force 99 and Mara Jade.
GameStop is now taking preorders for the Black Series Rocket Launcher Trooper and Battle Droid Gaming Greats figures.
Hasbro has announced two new Black Series Gaming Greats figures in their lead up to Hasbro Pulse Con. A Battle Droid from Republic Commando and a Rocket Launcher Trooper from Jedi Fallen Order. If you look closely at the packaging mural artwork for the Battle Droid, you may catch a glimpse of an arm for the final Delta Squad member. Look for these to go up for preorder on September 15 at 11am ET.
