A new exclusive figure from the Mandalorian will hit Best Buy on Black Friday.

Will it go straight to discount like IG-11?  I got him for $15.99 with free shipping.

I need the Cara Dune and the WM exclusive Luke at this point.  Saw the whole Dune wave (minus Dune, of course) at Target.  No sign of the Luke in my area yet.

No Luke in Denver either that I've seen.  Seems like the endcaps are all Lego Star Wars instead.

I haven't seen WM Luke yet either I got Cara Dune from GameStop and ordered Yavin Luke from BBTS. Just ordered The Heavy Artillery Mandalorian now. It's funny to see the prices of black series for sale on BBTS's site. There a eight figure wave with Lando and Royal Guard for  instance at 45 bucks. Some figures like Poe are 7.99 or less. New generation of kids aren't into star wars I think.

Black Series isn't meant for kids anyway.  Vintage series is, maybe.  Lots of lower price point stuff as well for the kiddos.

Now, the fact that there are enough people out there who have such a virulent hate for the last two movies, that might have more to do with it.

It seems like the mega-discounts happen on certain characters that either aren't in particularly desirable attire or were heavily overshipped.  Poor Cassian Andor in winter gear was a double whammy.  Casual Poe just wasn't a very striking look.  The more attention Star Wars gets the less desirable a given wave/figure will be.  We'll see if they can do a better job of maintaining excitement with a slower movie release schedule.

The constant stream of variants is annoying me. Especially since many of them are at US only retailers.

Nice!  I found a Battle Droid at the grocery store for 40%, but it was $25.  Still, $15 for an army builder is pretty sweet.

I managed to get the SDCC Red Sith Trooper dude for a great price. I really like the packaging with the slide out trays of extra weapons.

Also managed to get a carbonised set and they are really nice. Only one that's proving troublesome is that damn White box/First day Mando. Grrrrr  cursing.gif

Scored the 2 new Lukes & armored Kenobi lately. I was looking forward to ceremony Luke & was planning to pass on Jedi, but damn, he looks nice. Had to have it, lol.
Mando still eludes me. I was wanting the carbonized version, but after watching the show, I'd rather have the normal version, because I'm certain we'll be getting the shiny armor version, probably sooner than later.

Yeah, I bet there were a lot of people regretting ordering all those Hot Toys and similar after the second ep aired only to see him upgrade his armour a few eps later.
