Rumor Report Update: 6″ TBS Mandalorian Build Up Pack Info From Target

Leave a comment

Back in June, there was word that a deluxe “build up” pack was headed to the Black Series line for The Mandalorian. Later that month, additional info came to light which was thought to clarify that listing as being for the Vintage Collection. I received a new UPC over the weekend to research and found this morning that it is listed at Target as “STAR WARS MANDO BUILD UP PACK” and confirms the original report of it being for The Black Series. The price on this set is $34.99 and the DPCI is shown above in the image. So, it appears that we are in fact getting TWO Mandalorian build up packs – one for TBS and one for TVC.

Obviously, no official word on availability, but since it’s not showing in various other systems in the U.S., it may be a Target Exclusive.

Rumor Report: Vintage Collection Razor Crest To Be Announced Soon?

Leave a comment

I’ve heard some interesting rumors over the past couple of days regarding upcoming products for The Vintage Collection and it sounds like we may not have to wait too much longer for a reveal/announcement for Hasbro’s version of The Razor Crest from The Mandalorian.

As with any rumor we share, until there is an announcement they are unofficial, approximate and subject to cancellation and/or delay by the manufacturer.

UPDATE: Based on a series of very compelling/convincing screenshots received over the past couple of weeks – if true – it appears that the TVC Razor Crest may have a price point of $349.99.

Rumor Report: Convention Exclusive TBS Figure from The Mandalorian

Leave a comment

Tonight I have found evidence of yet another “convention exclusive” figure much like the Cad Bane, Heroes of Endor and ARC Trooper sets. Shipping manifest data reveals a pending arrival of SW BL CONVENTION EXCL 4 SAWYER – with “Sawyer” being a coded figure for The Mandalorian series. Speculation is that this character code is attributed to “The Armorer”.

New Hot Wheels Character Cars For The Mandalorian and the Bad Batch

Leave a comment

A new case listing from DiecastCompany.nl shows a breakdown of new Star Wars Character Cars for The Mandalorian and The Bad Batch. We got our first look at the concept for “The Child” character car this year at SDCC@Home but this assortment also confirms a character car for Cara Dune (from The Mandalorian) plus Wrecker from The Bad Batch. Will the Huckleberry car be a reissue of the previous version(s) or a shiny Beskar version with new tooling?

Thanks to the Star Wars Hot Wheels Collectors group on Facebook for the heads up.

Rumor Report: 6″ Black Series “The Mandalorian Credit Collection”

No, this is not an agency that repeatedly calls you for insurmountable debt you’ve accumulated, a couple days ago we reported the discovery of a new 6″ Black Series figure “Mando Berry” in Target’s system and it looks like there’s more info to share regarding this figure and the new “Credit Collection” to which it belongs.

Rumor Report Update: Two More 6″ Exclusives for Target?

Leave a comment

I received some intel from a source today indicating that Target may be getting an exclusive TBS “Holiday Trooper” in October. If you recall, back in June, I posted the discovery of a “Holiday Trooper 5″ in Walmart’s system. Cross checking the two shows that they are different SKUS and not the same holiday trooper – whatever they are.

Secondly, another potential exclusive is also in their system and it’s coded as “Mando Berry”. “Berry” was the mystery code name for the Cara Dune figures for The Mandalorian. This new one has a different UPC/EAN code than the TBS #101 figure so again it sounds like something new.

Both are priced at $24.99. More info to come….

UPDATE: I hit my local Target this morning to get some first hand images of the upcoming figure via the self-service price scanner and a helpful team member.
