The Black Series - 6" - 24: K-2SO Variation

For those into variations, Hasbro has updated the paint application on The Black Series 6" 24: K-2SO figure by giving him red pupils

Variation:
• 1st version: All white eyes
• 2nd version: White eyes with red pupils.

The updated figure is now shipping in The Black Series Wave 11 Assortment (Royal Guard, Lando, and Etc). You can check out a side-by-side photo above or view larger photos on the Figure's Page.

While at the Disney Store Yesterday noticed a variant on their Exclusive Han Solo and Luke Skywalker Elite Series 2-Pack. The variant has to do with the paint job on Luke Skywalker head.

Variants:
• Blue eyes and blond hair
• Brown eyes and brown hair

According to the bio for Mark Hamill, he has blue eyes and had blond hair, so I am assuming the brown eye and brown hair version was the first produced and then Disney corrected it to the blue eyes and blonde hair.

Stopped by my local Disney Store this morning at 10am to pick up some of their Exclusive 40th Anniversary Products. All they had in stock were the 40th Anniversary Han Solo and Luke Skywalker Elite Series 2-Pack, T-Shirts, Lithographs, and the Limited Edition Christmas Ornament set.

Per the manager this is all they received to sell in store and the rest is / was available online (as we reported earlier).

I get asked a lot if the Elite Series Han Solo and Luke Skywalker sets are limited or not, so I reached out to a few different Store Mangers and I got different answers, so its unclear. My local store did receive 40 of the Han and Luke 2-Packs though and they were selling like hotcakes.

So today is the 40th Anniversary of Star Wars, so since I was out running errands here in Houston I did a toy run to Target, Walmart, Toys R Us, and GameStop, hoping to find some of the New 40th Anniversary Products stocked on the shelves and pegs, but there was nothing to be found except for a massive amount of 40th Anniversary TBS 6" Princess Leia Organa figures at GameStop and Target, due to them getting full cases of Leia as we reported a few weeks ago.

My local Walmart and Toys R Us stores had nothing except for a few Black Series Titanium Series 3.75" figures.

I sure hope that we see large amounts of the second wave of The 40th Anniversary TBS 6" figures hit retailers soon and they don't continue to get flooded with solid case packs of Leia and possibly Luke and Obi-Wan.

StarWars.com has posted a interesting article on how they designed The New Black Series 6" Darth Vader, definitely worth checking out.

Steve Evans:
"When it came to making a certain Sith Lord’s 6-inch action figure for Star Wars‘ 40th anniversary, design director Steve Evans and Hasbro had a simple, if powerful, idea."

"We took the principle of, ‘Let’s do a Vader without any gimmicks,'” Evans says. “Let’s just do Vader."

Walmart's Exclusive TBS 3.75" Wave 8 Orders Arriving

If you were one of the lucky ones to place a order for Walmart's Exclusive Black Series 3.75" Wave 8 figures on Walmart.com the other day when we first reported it, be sure to check your doorsteps today as orders are arriving already thanks to their new 2 day shipping (if you spent $35).

Just a FYI, you may notice Unit Labels on these, but they do peel off fairly easy without damaging the product box.

Full Cases Of TBS 6" 40th Anniversary Princess Leia Organa At GameStop

Was at the Mall today celebrating Mother's Day with the wife and while there I stopped by GameStop and was shocked to see a 40th Anniversary Display filled with Princess Leia Organa figures.

There was a total of 16 figures, so I assumed they got full cases of just Leia, so I asked the manager and he confirmed that they did received 2 cases of these. Not sure if my other local stores received single figure cases as well, but its a possibility since they receive shipments from the same warehouse.

I sure hope this was a fluke though. I am all for single figure cases for hard to get figures, but if Hasbro ships out full cases of Luke, Leia, and Obi-Wan there will be figures warming the pegs for a very long time.

For the variation hunters out there, I just noticed that Hasbro has made some changes to the card of GameStop's Exclusive The Black Series 40th Anniversary 6" R5-D4 figure. At a quick glance some noticeable changes are the card numbers on the back of the card and the Text on the front of the card has been changed from "Age • Edad • Idade 4+" to "AGE • EDAD • IDADE 4+". I just took a quick look, so there maybe more changes and if you spot them in our quick photos feel free to post in the comments.

Variations:
• 1st version Card# 00007981. Upper and lower case Age text
• 2nd version Card# 00015201. Only upper case Age text.

I just found this updated card today at GameStop. You can view the popup picture above or view some larger photos on our Facebook Page.
