The GameStop exclusive 6″ Black Series Imperial Rocket Trooper (Gaming Greats) figure from Battlefront II has arrived at GameStop’s distribution center in Texas. Expected ship date is May 1 for those who preordered.
Following up on some previous reports here and here, I received info that the 4 rumored Target Exclusive Black Series figures “SUN”, “SNOW”, “RAIN” and “WIND” are on the way to Target distribution centers and have an expected arrival date in stores on or about May 19. (Street date TBD). It’s a good bet that these will be revealed as part of the May the 4th festivities planned – unless they leak prior to then. It is unknown which figures they all are except for one which I was told is some version of Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Thanks to TargetGod for the assist.
A couple weeks ago, we told you about the “Cheetah” animal code name discovered as part of the upcoming slate of 2021/2022 Black Series figures. We can now add “Elephant” and “Elk” to the growing list of mystery figures. Thanks to Irwin for the heads up.
Hot on the heels of yesterday’s reveal, the Black Series Wedge Antilles Battle Simulation Helmet (code names “Couch” & “Hazelnut’) has already reached Hasbro’s distribution warehouse in California as well as GameStop’s warehouse in Kentucky. Like a lot of product in recent months, this may reach collectors prior to its estimated released date of June 2021.
