The ROTJ Boba Fett has been officially announced by Hasbro Pulse on social media. And it looks really good from the glam shots!

Sounds like this wave might go along with the Bespin Escape Leia, so that would make it:

1x Wave 6 TBD #3
2x Wave 6 TBD #2
1x Wave 6 TBD #4
3x Wave 6 TBD #1
1x Princess Leia Organa (Bespin Escape)

Have to imagine Fett is the 2x or the 3x figure here.  Won't be surprised if The Child is the other figure leaving Leia, Greef, and Snags at 1x per case here.

Fett looks good - possibly just a re-use of the digital file they created for the new TBS6" ROTJ Fett?

I'll have to get a couple of those Fetts.  The Mando figures are a must as well.  I wonder what the Snaggletooth will look like?
This is the way.

Since Leia, The Child, Greef, and Fett are all new figures, I have to imagine that Snaggletooth is probably just going to be a carded repack of the figure from the Target TVC 3-Pack a couple of years ago (8 years ago!) to help offset costs.

A blue-suited variation would be very cool.

The Snaggletooth figure is a question mark for me, too.  Just because there are a few ways to approach it.  The character on the original Kenner cardback eventually came to be known as Zutton, and we got that figure back in the POTJ line.  And I think that photo may very well have come from the Holiday Special.  Would Hasbro re-release a 20 year old figure on a TVC cardback?  Or re-do Zutton?

If it’s a re-release of the figure from the TVC 3-pack?  I’m fine with that because it’s actually a pretty good figure.  And I’m pretty certain it’s an update of Takeel from the cantina.  The original version of him came out back in a POTF2 Cantina Aliens cinema scene.

I forgot about this... "sold out" is a funny way to put it.

There will be plenty more...

Not sure why everyone is panicking that this "sold out" at HasbroPulse?  ???

Still up for pre-order at Amazon
Still up for pre-order at Entertainment Earth

Still up for pre-order at a few other places too...
