Confirmed: 6″ Black Series Shadow Stormtrooper (TFU) Revealed
A source who wishes to remain anonymous, sent us a link confirming the upcoming 6″ Black Series Shadow Stormtrooper “Gaming Greats” figure from The Force Unleashed. Still no official word on this figure but hopefully we hear something soon.
Rumor Report: 6″ Black Series TFU Shadow Stormtrooper Gaming Greats Figure
In case you missed our Tweet and Instagram posts yesterday, there looks to be another “Gaming Greats” 6″ Black Series figure coming – the Shadow Stormtrooper from The Force Unleashed game. You may recall the artwork for this figure slipped out a couple months back. The preorder and release date is still unknown for the US market – as is with the TFU Stormtrooper Commander – but based on a couple sources I have, it should be revealed soon as production pieces have been seen. From what I know, the figure is much like the 3.75″ version from the TFU multipack and has a gunmetal color (kind of like the Carbonized Second Sister Inquisitor) and incorporates translucent parts to their sculpt (forearms, biceps, lower legs and knee area, and abdomen).
Rumor Confirmed: 6″ TBS Stormtrooper Commander from TFU
About a month ago, we ran a report about the possibility of there being a Stormtrooper Commander from The Force Unleashed coming as part of the Black Series Gaming Greats line. Today, we have visual confirmation of that rumor and theory thanks to Instagram follower @audiobeing. This figure reportedly has a street date of March 1 in Canada at EBGames stores, no word yet on a U.S. release date.
