Available in September for $109.99. Cool set with new enough stuff to make it worth a purchase. Hopefully Leia and Han come with the camo ponchos.
-
Want it, but gonna skip. Prices out ok enough, but still gonna pass.
-
Where is Han’s coat?!?

Where is Han’s coat?!?
With Leia's poncho, apparently! :P
Seriously, Han did have plenty of scenes without the duster, but I can't recall any time Leia wore the helmet but no poncho. Poncho with or without the helmet? Yes. No poncho or helmet? Check.
But never helmet with no poncho.
-
I have to say, I’m pretty excited for this. I get more psyched than most for the main characters I guess, but there has really been a lack of Jedi heroes in this line overall - specifically Endor based. It would be nice to see the poncho and trench coat included though.
-
This will be going up for sale during the just announced Hasbro Pulse Con (https://www.starwars.com/news/hasbro-pulsecon) 9/25-9/26.
Not sure which day exactly, but definitely during this event.

There were some images of this that leaked of the entire package. The presentation looks really cool, too. And from what I saw in those images Han, Luke and Leia all include softgoods accessories.

Managed to grab this and the 3.75" Vintage Collection Clone Troopers. Glad this year's scramble to get exclusives worked out.
-
I got everything I wanted, it’s a Festivus miracle! ;D
Also spent $200 between the Endor, Wampa and ARC Trooper sets...ouch.
-
I managed to get the Wampa and the ARC Trooper 3 pack. But I missed out on the 6” Endor multipack. I guess I’ll try for that tomorrow.
-
Managed to get my order in for this set. I think a ton of people were wearing out the refresh button on their keyboards waiting for the Pulse store to open up.

Now it's the spinning blue wheel of death waiting to 'complete' my order. :-\
-
I heard it is showing as a Preorder now with a ship date of 3/21??
Yikes.

After 5 minutes, I gave up. A friend mentioned his finally went through after 20 minutes of waiting. I tried again and got through right away. Weird experience.
-
I just put in a preorder on Hasbro Pulse with virtually no hassle. Scheduled to ship on March 29, which is a long way away, but I enjoy when stuff is spread out like that. Just glad to have been able to get one.
I'm assuming Pulse Premium members will get theirs now and the rest of us will wait for more to be made?
-
I was camped out on the main page of Hasbro Pulse at noon and kept refreshing it. I was able to get in right at noon ET and only went for the Heroes of Endor set. It took me about 5 minutes total to check out.
-
These are still up for pre-order, so Hasbro must have kept a lot back for the general public. They'd take a lot of flak if they all sold out yesterday.
-
I may be wrong, but I think their current stock is sold out. They are now taking pre orders for additional sets to come in March. I see others have speculated the same.

I think the stock they have on hand is what they sold to members on Wednesday. The Thursday orders are all pre-order for next March. Not ideal, but I like that approach better than limited quantities where some people miss out.
Does anyone know if this set contains all the stuff that comes with the individual figures? If this isn't coming with Han's Trench or Leia's poncho, I'll be tempted to cancel my order and just get the basics. Not worth having to double up on the figures just to get Paploo.

I believe Jayson or Jeff said the coat and poncho are tucked away in the package. I assume we'll get Paploo somewhere down the line, but it's nice to get another speeder bike.
-
Okay cool, thanks for clarifying. As long as you get everything+ in the box set, I'm sticking with it. Need another speederbike like I need another hole in my head though. I loaded up on the Biker Scouts years back and have way more bikes than I need.

Now you can put Luke and Leia on one, or each on their own bike!! :P

So weird that Han Leia and Luke are hitting Target now yet no sign of pre ordering online still

I think Hasbro is making sure they can sell the "convention exclusive" versions of Armorer, Cad Bane, Endor Han, Endor Luke, Endor Leia before they "officially" reveal that all those same figures will be pre-orders soon... even though the basic versions are now hitting retail. Oops!

Got my set from Hasbro Pulse today.
I'm not sure who did the packaging for this set, but its off the charts creative and cool.
I had seen the press photos of the figures, but hadn't seen anything for the packaging. Now I see where Rebelscum had some good photos (https://www.rebelscum.com/story/front/Hasbro_The_Black_Series_Heroes_of_Endor_Figure_Set_Packaging_Revealed_187676.asp) of this a month ago.
I love how the whole thing folds open with three separate windows that work well on their own and also work together. Its a shame I'm going to open this and not be able to display the packaging too.

The presentation of this set looks impressive to the point where I might order the individual figures of Han, Luke & Leia in order to keep those characters in the packaging. That might mean just taking out Paploo and the speeder bike!

I have a pending charge from Hasbro Pulse for this set, so I'm guessing I'll be getting it a lot sooner than March 29!
-
I got see this set live at the local toy show and it really is a piece of art. Very cool how the sides fold out to display three different action scenes. It takes up a ton of space, so wouldn't be able to display it that way, but its really well done. I have it on pre-order, but would probably cancel or sell it if they announce a separate release of Paploo.
-
I was just going through my pending orders on Hasbro Pulse and saw the 3/29/2021 shipping date on this. That's really frustrating in light of the cost of this set and how some of them already shipped in October.

I think they were produced in two batches. The people who got the initial pre-order got stock that was on hand, both those that purchased the second time around are waiting on a second production run of these. Guessing you were in the second group like me.
-
I cancelled mine. I have the three regular releases and enough 6" speeders. So I was going to be buying the ewok and pretty display for $118. With added worry it may ship early when I wasn't counting on it to in the ongoing battle to stay married while I buy toys.
-
Just got an email from Hasbro Pulse informing me that this set has been delayed, and the new estimated shipping date is May 20, 2021.

Same. :-\
-
Same. Blah.
-
This is so strange.
I can't think of another time when exclusives were still pending/available six months after they first shipped.
-
I keep on forgetting about this set. And it seems that Hasbro does, also.
At this point if I go into my Hasbro Pulse account it's at least 3 or 4 pages back from the most current orders. This kind of stuff gets old, fast.
-
Yeah, I've passed on the regular releases on Han, Luke and Leia so far waiting for this.
-
I am still excited to see this set in 2022.
-
I got charged for this set early this morning. I'm wondering if it's going to arrive within the next week or so?
-
Got my shipping notice this afternoon.
-
I've gotta say, I'm still kind of pissed about this set. There was that initial release in October, and then the pre-order status for the rest of the releases. I got charged last week and this it still in the process of shipping. With my Haslab orders I expected to wait. But in this case it's ridiculous.
-
Got this today. I think the shipping box can fit about three of these sets, yet they put it against on of the sides and put a lot of bubble "wrap" to fill the rest of the space. A bit risky if that side gets damaged, but mine was fine.
-
Mine arrived today. And it was the same deal with the shipping box - it's enormous!
Gripe for FedEx? Thankfully I was home when this got delivered, but it's been raining on and off here. Would it be so hard for FedEx or UPS drivers to put boxes in a plastic bag when the weather is crappy?
-
Mine arrived last week while I was away on a work trip. I got a VERY angry phone call from the girlfriend about the size of the box they shipped it in. So I guess you guys aren’t the only ones! She had recycled it by the time I got home, and I’m a little bummed that I didn’t get to lay eyes on it myself to see how comically oversized it was.

I should have taken a picture of it. That box was ridiculous. You could easily have fit 2-3 more sets in mine with room to spare. On the bright side, I have a ton of extra padding for the next time I ship stuff out...
-
So Hasbro Pulse sent me a request to take a survey about the Heroes of Endor pack. Are they serious? Do they REALLY want my feedback about how long it took to get this set delivered?!?!?!
