Walgreens May Be Getting Exclusive Black Series Boba Fett

305Batman · 06-25-2014, 08:20 AM

Awesome,here in Miami,there's a Walgreen's on every other corner LOL!

Black Arbor · 06-25-2014, 11:19 AM

Where does it say in that info that it's a "Star Wars Black" Boba Fett? I just see Boba Fett esclusive in action figures. Nothing about it being 6 inch or anything. It could be one'a those Titan Heroes, for cryin' out loud!

That is very true. That's why it's only speculation on which line the figure belongs to at this time.

Right under the $13 it says everyday retail $19.99 the same price point as every other store for the 6" SWB figs. It could be one of those 5PA figs akin to the early 80's figs, but if they think the basic $6 figure should turn that much of a profit they are nuts. That's why bets are on the 6" fig.

En Sabah Nerd · 06-25-2014, 04:44 PM

I really hope that this is the 6" figure since I have never seen that in person and the after-market prices are way too high, the rest of his wave peg-warms my stores. Maybe this'll be a Return of the Jedi deco on the figure with new accessories, either way I want this. I think the 13.47 is what Walgreens is paying and they sell at 20 (every day retail), the 32.6% seems to back this up.

rwsharpjr · 06-25-2014, 04:50 PM

Bet the "disp" means it will be a pdq display tray.
Maybe we will see a $19.99 Hasbro exclusive endcap for the holidays?

DarthNexus · 06-25-2014, 04:50 PM

when is it set to hit stores?

DarthNexus · 06-25-2014, 04:50 PM

oh nvm august

Jotaro Kujo · 06-25-2014, 08:39 PM

Once again, same as the Agent Venom, 8/27 IS NOT THE DATE HE IS SUPPOSED TO BE IN STORES. It is the date that THAT particular store is getting them in stock for the first time. Other stores could be getting them in sooner.

Also, why do morons keep thinking it's a good idea to post pictures of the AS/400? OH YEAH LET'S JUST TELL PEOPLE STUFF LIKE OUR PROFIT MARGIN. I wish this still had the store # on it so I could report them for being stupid...

Also, the UPC for this is completely different than the UPC for the Black Series Fett, so I wouldn't get your hopes up for a straight rerelease.

DarthNexus · 06-26-2014, 01:58 AM

jeez...no need to be so hostile dude…. When do you see them being in stores if sooner than august?

well the picture did say $19.99.

Jotaro Kujo · 06-27-2014, 08:16 PM

So I found out today that there is either a display that is exclusive that is linked to Star Wars Black Series 6" figures that is labeled Boba Fett, and isn't a figure, and costs $20, or that we are definitely getting Star Wars Black Series 6" figures in.

My store is getting them in on August 30th, so as before, like I said before in the thread, it depends on what day of the week your Walgreens gets their trucks in. I also feel bad for whoever took this picture, because my store is getting 3 figures on the 30th, with SIXTEEN more to come, so either four or two full cases. I say four or two, because...

What puzzles me though, is that in addition to this figure, Walgreens is getting in six other figures, all with UPCs that do not match up to any that I have found on Black Series 6" figures in poking around on the internet. The six UPCs are:

63050925254
65356992926
65356997973
65356997974
65356997975
65356997976

If anyone has any idea what figures these are, that would be awesome, because they don't match up to any current Black Series 6" figure UPCs as far as I can tell.

305Batman · 07-01-2014, 05:18 PM

It's been revealed to be the prototype white Boba Fett.

Well played Walgreens.

Jayp7 · 07-02-2014, 07:36 AM

Most likely at the Hasbro booth.

insta-buy take my money

Nymesys Prime · 07-02-2014, 07:55 AM

Looks like Walgreens is upping their game...If the pricing holds true that's one more place to hunt from now on

SMB73 · 07-02-2014, 08:29 AM

Great, now Star Wars has the new equivalent of a Optimus Prime repaint. Here's the white armor version, in a year we'll have an all-black Boba Fett. And who know's? Maybe in a few years Boba and Evangelion will cross paths and they can make a hideous black/purple/green repaint?

It isn't really an apples to apples comparison, though. The White Armored Boba Fett is an established part of Star Wars lore and is likely to be a pretty sought after figure.

Ravenxl7 · 07-02-2014, 08:50 AM

I was kinda hoping it would be a Holiday Special Boba Fett, but the concept Boba Fett isn't a bad choice. Not something I'll go out of my way to get, but if I can, I might pick one up.

trebleshot · 07-02-2014, 08:51 AM

Oh, I'm sure Hasbro will figure out a way to work in the SWHS deco somewhere. After that, probably a basic Mandalorian trooper remold.

To add to what Joe said, White Boba Fett predates White Optimus Prime by about a decade, as well.

(EDIT: I do not count G1 Ultra Magnus, even though he technically came with a white redeco of the G1 Prime cab).
