I bought So the Snoke set and now obligated to get this Kylo. Oh and probably 2 more red guards! But yeah is this Kylo ever coming out again?

Someone really needs to ask Hasbro about this at Toy Fair this weekend.  >:(

Noticed something interesting about this today on Brickseek...suddenly went from saying "None available in your area" to showing zero counts in multiple stores across town. I'm cautiously optimistic this might mean they could show up soon. Also showed the price as $29.99.

I checked that out too following your post.  I've checked a couple of times since, and individual stores are showing up with that zero quantity.  The change in status is a point of hope since I know that I've never seen this exclusive in a store.  And I'm definitely not up for paying the $70 it's going for on eBay.

I caught the post from Yakface about this piece, so I checked Brickseek this morning.  And sure enough there's a bunch of these Kylo Ren's in stock in my area now.  Why in the world did they hold off to release this piece until now?  It just seems bizarre that they would wait until the home entertainment release of THE LAST JEDI to get this into stores.

That seems to be the case for the 4" TBS figures as well.  I'm waiting for the deluge of TLJ figures any day now.

The information was solid and I just picked this piece up after work.  Thanks for the heads up Jayson!

It went from 1% to 4% on Brickseek today...I'm no mathmetician, but wouldn't that leave 96% of the country still SOL?

There are none around here ANYWHERE. Same as the past six months.  >:(

Popped up on WM.com briefly today. I happen to be in Ireland, so got lucky with the timing, being up when it posted in the wee hours of the morning in the US.

A few "out of the way"/suburb WMs stocked these overnight, so I went and picked one up this afternoon. Glad to finally have this out of the way

We have stores showing counts here now but none of them have any on the shelves. It's really beyond frustrating at this point.

And why is it $5 more on their website?  >:(

Our long national nightmare is over...I finally scored one of these last night after finding a rare Walmart employee willing to help me out. Box was a little banged up but I'm not about to complain about that, just happy to finally have one.  :)

What a great set too, BTW!

I've been stalking Brickseek for clearance prices on these and one of the local stores finally got down to $7 so I pounced. Grabbed the last few they had, crazy this exclusive had such a short shelf life.

Did the same thing as McMetal - grabbed this for $7 so I could have the companion piece to my $9.99 Snoke w/Throne set.

I'm shocked I'm able to score these exclusives so far after-the-fact for so little money.

Picked this up fo $5 the other day. Put together with the Snoke throne, it’s a really neat set. Would love to have something like this for the 4” line...
