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.
Entertainment Earth has also opened preorders for the new figures announced today via Hasbro’s Fan First Friday.
Thanks to a tweet from FunkoPopsNews, we have our first look at two of the long rumored Clone Force 99 members Hunter and Crosshair from “The Bad Batch” as well as the recently rumored Asajj Ventress from the Black Series line. Look for these to be announced officially soon.
Also as a follow up to our recent report of the Deluxe Clone Trooper found in EBGames system, I now believe based on these reveals that the deluxe clone is Wrecker – also from The Bad Batch.
There is also word of another female character joining the Black Series line: Aurra Sing. It is unknown at this time if she will be branded as part of The Phantom Menace or The Clone Wars subgroup of figures but whatever the case I hope we get her in her alternate black outfit as well.
Remember, nothing is official until Hasbro confirms or unannounced product is found at retail.
An interesting bit of anonymous intel flowed my way today, and it looks like in 2021, we’ll be getting some long requested characters from The Clone Wars added to the Black Series line: Bo Katan and Asajj Ventress. I believe they are also general releases and not exclusives.
Remember, nothing is official until Hasbro confirms or unannounced product is found at retail.
I received interesting word today that a new 6″ Black Series item has been listed in EBGames system as “Clone Trooper Deluxe”. Could we be getting an ARC Trooper finally or is this a standard clone with a bunch of weapons/accessories? We’ll just have to wait and see.
