In the\u00a0 wee hours of the morning, I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B2D7g-nn7bs\/\">received the above image<\/a> from Instagram user argent_no_1. It shows another 6&#8243; Black Series Sith Trooper release, this time sporting a distinctive white box and the words &#8220;First Edition&#8221; emblazoned in a circular call out on the front. It has subsequently turned up for sale on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.de\/Star-Wars-E4078ES0-Skywalkers-Action-Figur\/dp\/B07RWBVRG5\">Amazon.de<\/a>. As you may recall, <a href=\"https:\/\/yakfaceforums.com\/main\/2019\/08\/29\/6-black-series-second-sister-inquisitor-leaked\/\">we were the first to reveal<\/a> details for the packaging for the Second Sister Inquisitor which also features similar packaging design. I am now of the opinion that there are several of these &#8220;chase&#8221; packaging versions of select figures from the Black Series. If you review our <a href=\"https:\/\/yakfaceforums.com\/main\/2019\/01\/08\/2019-master-upc-dpci-sku-list\/\">Master List<\/a>, you&#8217;ll see TBS figures with &#8220;Metallic&#8221; and &#8220;Pearl&#8221; after their names. (Second Sister has &#8220;Graphite&#8221; on its box). I believe these are all special packaging variants. Again, with zero communication as to what this &#8220;First Edition&#8221; Sith Trooper may officially be, it&#8217;s all speculation, but it is reminiscent of the &#8220;First Day of Issue&#8221; figures for the Legacy and Clone Wars line, the Ultimate Galactic Hunt (UGH) campaign and\u00a0 those chase versions of foil backed TVC figures. It does beg the question: why this wasn&#8217;t released &#8220;first&#8221; to reflect the packaging&#8217;s distinctive call out?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Update:<\/strong> To throw another possibility on the pile, we do have 2 rumored figures, &#8220;London (i.e. Rey) White&#8221; and &#8220;Bruges White&#8221; on our Master List as well. Could &#8220;white&#8221; be a reference to the color of the box on these two figures? The plot thickens&#8230; as the Amazon.de listing has been removed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now, there are 3 of them???
