Title: Target 6" Black Series Princess Leia (Bespin Escape)
Post by: Jeff on June 12, 2018, 11:12 AM: From our friends at Yakface - Rumor Report - Target Exclusive 6" Bespin Leia (http://yakfaceforums.com/main/2018/06/09/rumor-report-target-exclusive-6-leia-bespin-outfit/)

Would be good for Target if this is scheduled to hit stores at the same time the Bespin Han wave is hitting stores...

Post by: Muftak on June 12, 2018, 01:12 PM: Is there confirmation on the exact outfit on this figure. I'm just asking because a "Bespin Leia" could be a tweak of the "Hoth Leia" that will be hitting soon...

Post by: Darby on June 12, 2018, 02:20 PM: I'd be surprised if they did two similar figures at the same time, but I'd be up for either. The Bespin Gown Leia would be great.

Post by: Nicklab on June 13, 2018, 06:46 PM: I'm thinking that it's the Bespin gown. It does some service to Leia, but I don't think it's a version that would be very well received at wider retail. But it might be a good exclusive.

The Hoth version seems like a solid general release offering. And if they were considering the Bespin escape / Carbon Freeze chamber version of Leia? Having the Hoth version and the Bespin escape version on pegs at the same time might be confusing.

All that being said, I would like to see a Bespin escape Leia in the 6" TBS line. But it might be a good offering in a multi-pack with Chewbacca and a blasted apart version of C-3PO in the cargo net.

Post by: McMetal on July 20, 2018, 09:01 AM: What the hell is that thing?!?! :D

I thought we were getting Bespin Gown Leia?

This is practically the same as the Hoth Leia figure! ( I know different legs, head, etc, but come on)

Weak effort on this one.

Post by: GrandMoffNick on July 20, 2018, 09:06 AM: A little bit disappointing but how many Bespin escape Leia's are there? Two? PotJ 3.75" and Epic Force? Not that there's a ton of Bespin Gown either

I figured they would go this route.

Well look at that!

Post by: Nicklab on September 14, 2018, 06:16 AM: Information that I came across indicates that the Bespin escape Leia will probably be coming out as part of a 9/30 reset, give or take a few days.
