Confirmed at today's livestream, a wave of Retro from TBOBF is coming (better late than never, I guess ).

Pipeline revealed today:
- Boba Fett (Desert Nomad)
- Tusken Raider
- Fennec Shand
- Krrsantan
- Cad Bane
- Jedi Luke Skywalker
- Grogu with backpack
- The Mandalorian

Figures to be revealed later this year...

Should be here in time for season 2.

Mostly happy with this one.  Not sure what they are going to do with another Grogu and Mando though.  Kind of wonder if Grogu might be a pack in.  I supposed it be a beskar chainmail Grogu.  Hopefully the Luke will be a bit different that the ROTJ Luke.

Is BOBF getting a season 2?

There's nothing official, but I met the guy who played Krrsantan at Colorado Springs Comic Con and he was pretty cagey about it when I asked.

I was happy to see the BOBF wave Retro Luke is not a straight repack...he has a black cloak in this version, much like the original 1983 promo picture from the cross sell. And I am sold on it!

These look pretty good.

[Rob]

Any mention of these at SDCC in terms of when???

[Muftak]

They were on display in the booth, I believe the cards said Spring 2024 availability.

[Rob]

Damn, that would be 14 or 15 months maybe after being announced.

I don't mind waiting at this point since I will probably be picking up two of each since they are "new" figures.  Still figuring out how to score an extra Mon Mothma from the ROTJ six pack to open.  On the fence about a Yakface to open.  I don't have a vintage one, but I have avoided opening any of the figures that are straight remakes of their vintage counter parts.  Perhaps some day I will spring for a vintage Yakface.

Seeing a lot of FB posts showing links for these on amazon, only to see that all the links show unavailable and without any photos.  I am guessing preorders for this wave may be showing up shortly.
