*We all know how preorders can go with Walmart so it may launch before or after its scheduled time.

Update: Walmart’s website continues to have issues with Jesse (and other exclusives). Various website tests show that the checkout/cart fails depending on your shipping location. Get it together Walmart.
We’ve added a few more Black Series code names recently to our Master List. It is unknown who these characters but “SPRINT” and “MARATHON” are likely Target exclusives. We will update when we learn more about these and the other codes.
I came across a new code name this week at Target and Walmart for a Black Series item designated “Rushmore“. It’s price is higher than the current MSRP for mainline ($24.99) and deluxe ($33.99) figures at $44.99 so I speculate that this could be for the upcoming Luke Skywalker and Grogu Build Up Pack that was pipelined at the Hasbro Fanstream in February. Of it could be something else entirely. We will update once more is known.
Hasbro announced this gem of an Amazon exclusive today: The Black Series Carbonized NED-B and Purge Trooper set ($75). Available for preorder today at 1pm ET.
This is the only time I’ll mention it today because it is awful.
Not one to leave a repaint oppportunity on the table, some digging today has turned up info for a potential Black Series Axe Woves Electronic Helmet for sometime this year. Pricing should be inline with the current helmet offerings in the $130 range.
