Rumor Report Update: Mandalorian Build Up Pack is TVC?
Some additional digging has potentially revealed a significant detail on the rumored Mandalorian Build-Up Pack we shared last week. According to Walmart’s system, this is a VINTAGE COLLECTION set, not a Black Series item — unless there are 2 separate items with the same name, that Australian distributor was wrong, or Walmart’s system is wrong. More info to come as we learn more.

Rumor Report: 6″ TBS Mandalorian Figure Build-Up Pack
A link found on an Australian distributor website, reveals an upcoming 6″ Black Series Mandalorian Build-Up Pack from Hasbro. No word on its contents but it sounds like The Mandalorian figure with several additional accessories similar to the Sith Trooper Armory Pack figure from the Vintage Collection. Hopefully it will include the pram for The Child and maybe his newly acquired jetpack. Nevermind, the Beskar Mando includes the jetpack. 😛 How about whistling birds, flame and blaster attachments or a flight stand like the Target Exclusive Marvel Legends Black Widow?
Thanks to JTPrime for the alert.
Rumor Report: 5 New TVC Figure Listings Found Via Walmart app
Yesterday, I teased the reveal of a bit of forthcoming Vintage Collection (TVC) news and now that I’ve some time, here it is. Five new TVC listings have turned up in Walmart’s system* . Interestingly, a new code naming theme has been introduced with this wave with the names of oceans. “Atlantic”, “Pacific”, “Indian”, and “Arctic”. The fifth name looks familiar as the “Omega” name (from The Mandalorian) has turned up in our prior Black Series rumor report. It’s a pretty safe bet that they are the same character, the question is, who is it?
*Note: these are NOT Walmart exclusives.

Rumor Report: Lots of Black Series Preorders To Launch Tomorrow
Word is that Hasbro will be officially announcing/launching several new preorders tomorrow for the Black Series line and, if my count is accurate, it could be more than a dozen products. Hasbro Pulse did mention a few weeks ago via a comment on Instagram that the wave with The Mandalorian in Beskar Armor would be available for order on May 28. One could assume that the entire wave will be available (and then some).
The question is, will there be any major surprises? I can think of one and it’s long overdue.
Rumor Report: 4 New 2020/2021 6″ Black Series Listings Found via Walmart App
Poking around with the Walmart app in the wee hours of the morning, I managed to uncover 4 new Black Series listings: one from The Rise of Skywalker and three from The Mandalorian. No official word on who they are yet (but I have some ideas). I’ve added these 4 figures to the expanding UPC/DPCI/SKU Master List.
