Apart from the reveal and launch of the massive Haslab The Ghost campaign, Hasbro also announced several other Vintage Collection and Black Series items. Click on through for the details.
Black Series Pre Vizsla glam images have been released and you can see here the reuse of the original Jango Fett body for a majority of the sculpt. Preorders open Sat, July 22 at 5pm ET.
Walmart’s gonna Walmart but don’t panic (yet). Walmart has sent out price adjustment notifications (adj. to $0.00) to those who preordered TBS Arc Trooper Fives. The orders are not canceled, but that doesn’t mean they won’t be. Just keep an eye on them and see where this goes.
It’s been a few months since we’ve done one of these but as we prepare for another onslaught of solicitations from SDCC, here is a list of approximately 50 outstanding preorders* (U.S. only) for Black Series and Vintage Collection items. If you’ve preordered everything, the list is large but about a year ago at this time it was in the range of 80-90 preorders yet to be fulfilled. Yay progress!
*if an item isn’t on the list, there is a chance it has already been found at retail but preorders haven’t been fulfilled.
Hasbro has revealed their first exclusive for Hasbro Pulse Con later this year: The Black Series Starkiller* & Stormtroopers from The Force Unleashed. Starkiller feature multiple hand, head and lightsber blade options as well as force lightning and force effects. Retail price is $110.99
*As we reported previously, Starkiller will be a mainline (deluxe?) release in the mural packaging later this year.
Update: Recent shipping data shows almost 2K of the Hasbro Pulse Con exclusive Black Series Starkiller & Stormtroopers arrived in the U.S. yesterday.
As we approach the official launch of the next Vintage Collection Haslab project at SDCC, I thought this would be an opportune time to ramble on some changes I’d like to see for future campaigns to ensure success for not just Star Wars, but all Haslab projects.
