Instagram follower punkcomictoycollector send word of finding the Retro Collection Boba Fett (Prototype Edition) at their Toys R Us store in Mississauga, Ontario Canada.
U.S. collectors will have to wait until Target’s July 25th street date is lifted to acquire theirs.
ToysRus.ca jumped the gun a bit and has posted images for a couple rumored TVC Gaming Greats figures including the Shadow Stormtrooper from The Force Unleashed and the Heavy Battle Droid from Battlefront II.

A post from the Heroes & Villains Facebook Group shows that wave 10 of The vintage Collection has started to hit ToysRUs in Canada.
For those that missed out on the first release of the Toys”R”Us Exclusive 6″ Black Series Commander Gree from 2017, word is (via the 6″ Black Series Collectors group on Facebook) that he may be available sometime again in the near future as distributors have started receiving solicitations and opening preorders again.
It’s been a while since we’ve reported one of these but with all of the reports of the Walmart Exclusive 6″ Black Series Mimban Stormtroopers FINALLY hitting stores en masse, I’ve noticed a variant. The version from Canada (Toys”R”US) looks to have silver accents painted on it while the Walmart versions in the U.S. feature a plain, unpainted blaster.
If you haven’t heard yet, there’s news that the brand may be reviving itself in the United States.
Could this really be happening? Share your thoughts and what this could mean for our beloved hobby, and the toy industry in general!
Our friends at Rebelscum (via Instagram) post this latest product leak from TRU in Canada. Apparently there is a Force slink two pack featuring C-3PO and R2-D2.
We received a report that Walmart has purchased much of the remaining stock from Toys”R”Us here in the U.S. and is planning on having a special reset to offer items in stores. No word if this includes exclusive items like the 6″ Captain Phasma (Quicksilver Baton), Zuckuss and the like, but it is not out of the realm of possibility. Hopefully this will all be cleared up at SDCC.
Thanks to Jason M. for the intel.
Welp, another product has leaked out to retail before the official announcement. This time it’s the long-rumored Black Series Centerpiece Rey (Starkiller Base) set. This will also be available as part of the SDCC Exclusive Starkiller Base set that was announced two weeks ago. This was found, again, at Toys”R”Us in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Thanks to Ben R. for the image.
