Hey hey, it's the fanstream - and pre-orders are coming tomorrow. What's new?
Shop Disney/Hasbro Pulse split The Retro Collection 6-pack, with a nice-but-odd mix of Attack of the Clones Mace Windu, Jango Fett, and Padme Amidala with Revenge of the Sith Anakin Skywalker, General Grievous, and Clone Trooper. I'm looking forward to this.
As they warned, The Vintage Collection HasLab got punted to... we don't know when. But that's probably a good idea, because a lot of pre-orders are about to go live and we've only got so much money. A X-Wing Pilots 4-pack with a Duros and a green-skinned lady from... OK I admit I have no idea.
Pipeline reveals include Ahsoka's take on a live-action The Clone Wars Anakin Skywalker, a 4-pack of Shriek Hawk Mandalorians, and most enticing, a Pulse/ShopDisney exclusive Mandalorian Forge playset. Can they support the playset in a small exclusive offering? We shall see!
For The Black Series...
Ad: Pre-order the Star Wars The Black Series Boba Fett Helmet Prop Replica! This 2020 release brings you all the fun and detail of a high-end prop replica at a price that's not all that bad. It's supposed to be a toy, but the articulated rangefinder and heavy weathering means it'll look great in your IKEA cases, and it won't be obvious that what you have isn't a high-end replica.
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Jannah (The Black Series). I didn't open mine until pretty recently - it's a decent figure, but you can also see how the modern Star Wars design ethos has a lot of overlap between movies, as she could just as easily be on the same shelf as Rogue One characters with her chunky tech gear off of more or less familiar clothing.. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Saw Gerrera (The Black Series). This is not a figure that kept its value, but it is a pretty good one. It's loaded with sculpted detail, some of which isn't painted, but it's excellent at the current market prices. Read on!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: R5-D4 (The Mandalorian, The Black Series). There was a new R2-D2 mold last year, and this R5-D4 figure uses it - with a bad motivator, and a new dome. It's clean, and lacks the Mando-specific dirt patterns. But other than that, it's a perfectly nice droid figure. Read on!

What was revealed?
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Tusken Chieftan (The Black Series). He uses parts of the old Tusken Raider from about seven years ago, but most of what you'll actually see are new parts, with new robes, and some decent paint.
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Cad Bane (The Black Series). This is the one from The Book of Boba Fett, so there are a lot of differences between him and The Clone Wars' "live action" figure from a few years ago. For example, there are no rocket boots... but it's still a blue Duro in a hat and a duster, so to a lot of fans it's not obvious that it's a completely new sculpt. Read on!
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Pyke Soldier (The Black Series). It's like the stock photo got turned into a toy, with an extra blaster and no special features. It's decent, and meets modern fan expectations for the scale. Read on!
Also, a new Transformers HasLab is live now - and it's over 25% funded in the first hour. There's a decent proposition for what you get, and how big the robots are relative to other toys in the marketplace.
