Just found this...

Doesn't say exclusive to where, though.

This is a cool one and hopefully it's an exclusive that's easy to find for everyone.  Now I kind of wish I had a second Thrawn so I could do a custom.  Oh well!

Hopefully we hear some good news regarding Zuckuss soon.

Someone mentioned on Yakface’s FB page that this might be a Walgreens exclusive. If so, then it should be rather easy to get.

These Imperial Officers just keep coming!  First it was Krennic, Thrawn and Tarkin.  And now Piett and Veers are both on the way? 

One of these days the Asteroid Victim Imperial Officer from TESB is going to get his due!

Lol! Not for me. We have a guy here in the San Fernando Valley who keeps tabs on the exclusives and cleans out about 10 stores before they even come out of the back room. Pretty annoying.

Anton, If Veers is a Walgreens exclusive and you need a hand getting him, lmk. Chicagoland is the home of Walgreens and they're as abundant as Starbucks or Subway. I have one in walking distance of my house and can easily grab extras for folks who may need em

If they're throwing in the cap, the chest armor must be removable, and that is pretty awesome.

From the looks of it, the armor and belt should be removable. The body should be the Tarkin/Piett sculpt

Very kind of you to offer. Will keep it mind!

How close is a Mimban Han outfit to General Veers' outfit?

Check out THIS VIDEO (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zKRQ411-j8&feature=youtu.be) of actor Julian Glover being shown the Black Series General Veers action figure for the first time.  His reaction is cool to watch!

Wow!  That looks like two completely different figures.  Going to need two of these (at least).

My thoughts exactly.  Perhaps I might repaint the spare armor for Thrawn.

Got the only 2 Veers at a local Walgreens last night (I hit 2 stores just before midnight closing, only one had them). One for me, one for my collector buddy.

Here in my part of Walgreens’ homeland, I have 5 stores within a 5 mile radius of me. Only one so far has gotten Veers and it was only 3 - enough for me and a friend. Based on past experience, this means within a month they will be falling off shelves here just like all the other exclusives. Hell between these stores I could have walked away with every TBS exclusive except for Fett. Crazy.

I was making a run to ACE today and decided to take a peek inside the Walgreens next door, and lo and behold they had a shelf full o' Veers. Actually the only Star Wars figures they had at all.

Lucked out and found a fresh stock the other morning. Glad to have him out of the way.

I managed to pick up the 6" TBS Veers today.  I checked out using my Walgreens rewards card and it rang up at $12.99!
