Apart from the Target Exclusive Galaxy’s Edge Captain Cardinal helmet, watch for Hasbro to announce preorders for the Black Series Force FX Darksaber from The Mandalorian, The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels as the final Mando Monday series of reveals.
Sponsor DorksideToys is now taking preorders for the new 6″ Black Series Bo-Katan Kryse from The Mandalorian as well as the new wave of Black Series Archive figures.
Here is the first look at the rumored 6″ Black Series Bo-Katan Kryse figure (10) from The Mandalorian going up for preorder at 4pm ET today.
In a small town off the interstate in southern Minnesota you may see a sight rarely seen at many metropolitan stores. Peg after peg of new TVC figures waiting to be liberated from their cardboard and plastic prison. I envision taking a roadtrip tonight.
PS: Hey Walmart, fix your distribution.

Armed with some UPC/EAN info, I ventured into Target today to see I could get a hit on the Black Series figures that we exclusively reported on Monday. Low and behold the info is in Target’s system – and it confirms the code names.
With this info some theories can be proposed:
– The price point is indicative of these being exclusive.
– These are individual DPCIs that are not part of an assortment so could they be another wave of Galaxy’s Edge items??? (These figures are also exclusive to ToysRUs in Canada – the retail partner for GE merch in that country.)
– Walmart received an exclusive wave of figures for The Clone Wars – could this be something similar???
DPCIs have been added to our extensive UPC/DPCI/SKU Master List.
Sponsor DorksideToys is now taking preorders for Case, set and individual figures from the new Black Series Archive Wave 1 for 2021. This assortment includes Han Solo (Hoth – Brown Coat), Luke Skywalker (Hoth), Grand Admiral Thrawn and Clone Commander Cody.
Preorders for TVC Wave 16 are now processing and shipping from sponsor DorksideToys. Check your inbox or order statuses for updates.
While looking for new info regarding upcoming product for 2021, something interesting developed. As some may know, the production title for the new animated spin-off series, The Bad Batch, was “Cookies”. There have been some products tied to that code name, most prominently an assortment of POP!s from Funko which I tweeted about a week ago. The other day, I ran across a Hasbro product bearing a related code name. In order to protect those who are sensitive to spoilers, you’ll have to click through for the identity of this character.

A listing has been uncovered for an upcoming Bo-Katan set for Hasbro’s Mission Fleet line and is said to be a part of the $19.99 pricepoint. Also of interest is how the figure is codenamed and associated (but more on that when I can get some additional confirmation as to its potential meaning).
After delay, after delay and after delay, it looks like orders for the Walmart Exclusive 6″ Black Series Clone Wars figures are finally starting to ship. If you kept your preorders, check your status for shipping info.
