Re: Star Wars Black Series discussion

I learned something new today about how EB Games does their Hasbro figure distribution. They don't send solid cases to stores recently, they divide up cases and send different figures to each store.

I was at my EB Games today when their shipment arrived since they told me the Black Series figures were on the manifest, so I made sure to be there. As they opened the box in front of me, I saw so many figures just tossed in and not even any packing materials keeping them from shuffling around.

So they ended up only getting Rey, DJ and Lando from this new wave, not even the repacks of pegwarmers like Poe and such. It was quite eye opening, meaning that a store may never actually get a full new wave. They said they likely will get more but I left empty handed with no Captain Rex and scooped up Rey and DJ. The other EB in town hasn't received any new Black Series today and none on the upcoming manifests, so I'll keep an eye on that store to score a Captain Rex.





I never had a chance to display the HasCon exclusive Captain Rex so now is a good time with the new wave.
