Following up on another report, it appears that the “Convention Exclusive 5” listing that surfaced yesterday corresponds to a possible carded Black Series 40th Anniversary Admiral Ackbar from Return of the Jedi for Hasbro Pulse Con. No official detail yet, but hopefully we’ll all hear something soon.
As we exclusively reported earlier today, here are a few shots of the upcoming Target exclusive Black Series Shoretrooper from Andor. No official word obviously on its release. Current MSRP is $26.49
With the Andor series launching next month, we are close to seeing new official product reveals for Black Series and Vintage Collection. I received word today that we can expect at exclusive Shoretrooper for the Black Series. It has a new deco that I don’t believe we’ve seen before and has a new weapon. No word yet as to which retailer this will land but I should be able to figure that out in the next few days.
Update: This is a Target exclusive
