So its been about 4 days now, since HasbroToyShop.com took orders for the HASCON Exclusive Black Series 6” Captain Rex figure and my email box has been blowing up with concerns about people's orders not shipping.

Typically in the past HasbroToyShop processed and shipped Convention Exclusives within a day or two, so people are starting to worry their order may have issues since its been 4 days already.

Now some people's orders did process and were sent tracking information and some have even received their orders already, but there seems to be a large amount of people waiting still, including myself.

I did contact HasbroToyShop's Customer Services a few times during the week to see why my order is being held up and got the following response

"There are no issues with your order, it will be filled"

"We had a Extremely Large amount of orders due to the increased production of this product, causing orders to take longer then normal"

So hopefully they are truly backed up with orders and we will see orders filled next week for those waiting.

I did a little research and made a few phone calls and obtained the UPC and Walgreens WIC number which can be use to check your local stores for their Exclusive Obi-Wan Kenobi (Force Spirit) figure. Some stores in California have already received these and they should be making their way to other stores across the Nation soon. Price is $19.99 each.

Anyways here are the numbers you will need. You will just need the WIC# when checking your local stores, but I included the UPC as well:
• WIC # 988181
• UPC: 630509602797

Remember you heard it hear first and please don't copy and paste our info without giving us credit. Thx

Stopped by my local Texas Target today and found The Last Jedi "Teal Wave 2" on the pegs, which includes the new 3.75" Yoda and Obi-Wan figures. I also found this wave at Walmart back on September 12th, so if your looking for these be sure to check your local stores.

I received a couple of The Black Series 6" 51: Finn (First Order Disguise) figures today from Amazon and noticed that the head looks a bit different from the ones I bought on Force Friday II at Toys R us.

The figure I bought form Toys R Us has a earlier date stamp and it looks like Hasbro painted the flesh tone on this head, while the later date stamp looks to have the flesh tone color mixed into the plastic.

• 1st version - Painted flesh tone on Head.
• 2nd version - Flesh tone color mixed in head plastic.

If you recall this variant happen on The Black Series 6" 01: Finn (Jakku) as well.

Preorder Toys R Us Exclusive Poe's Boosted X-Wing & Figure

If your having problems finding the Toys R Us Exclusive Poe's Boosted X-Wing & Figure at your local stores, you can now preorder it at ToysRus.com for $49.99 each with a ship date of 10/27.

Kind of odd the expected ship date is over a month away since local stores have been receiving these already for the past few weeks, which we reported finding back on September 9th.

Last Friday Litzky PR sent us Official 2017 HASCON Star Wars Press Images, but I didn't have online access till today, so they have been uploaded to our Facebook Page today. Just a note, the Press Images were a mix of new and old product reveals, so I just posted the newer images.

Today at my local Houston Walmart I found their Exclusive Black Series 3.75-Inch (The Last Jedi Wave) on the shelves. These were mixed in with the previous waves that have been clogging the pegs and shelves for the past year. Price was $11.92 each. We have also received reports from our readers as well finding them from the East to West Coast, so they are starting to trickle into stores as we speak. Happy Hunting!

For the variant hunters out there, noticed that Hasbro has changed The Last Jedi Resistance Gunner Paige head's skin tone from a high gloss to flat. I have only seen the high-gloss version on the early date stamp of 71241. I took a comparison photo, glossy on the left, flat on the right. My lighting washes out the glossy a bit, but its easy to tell the difference in hand.

• Glossy - Date Stamp 71241
• Flat - Date Stamp 71851

So I have noticed this for a while, but wanted to find some more of The Black Series 6" 43: Darth Vader figures with newer date stamps before jumping to any conclusions. The Vader figures with older date stamps seem to have more of a classic Helmet Dome, while the Vader figures with newer date stamps have what appears to be a larger wider sized Helmet Dome.

• Smaller Dome - Date Stamps 71531 - 71671
• Larger Dome - Date Stamps 71671 - 71871

I have found dozens of each version at retail, so they are both out there in large numbers. Not really sure if these are just production errors or a actual change though.
