Another cat set loose from the proverbial bag - EU Con Exclusive Black Series 6" Deluxe Luke Skywalker (https://yakfaceforums.com/main/2019/09/23/convention-exclusive-deluxe-luke-skywalker/) from Marvel's Star Wars title.
Like other con exclusives in recent years, the Yavin Ceremony Luke figure here will get released in a standard Black Series box/line. Sounds like the exclusive package will hit some fan channel retailer sometime this Fall while the basic box version is rumored for Wave 23.
edit: Hasbro sent me a press release for this guy today -

Looks pretty cool to me. I've kept up on the main title from the beginning, and think this is kind of a nest, "non main" look for him too. Nice accessories as well.

The convention exclusive version of Ceremony Luke (https://yakfaceforums.com/main/2019/09/23/convention-exclusive-deluxe-luke-skywalker/) looks pretty awesome. I like the presentation and the accessories are a great way to augment this: blastshield helmet, training remote, etc.

Well, this dropped this morning on Hasbro Pulse for about an hour. Not sure if I like unannounced product drops or schedule release date drops
-
Well I certainly found out about this an hour late. Cool to know I won't have a shot at getting this exclusive either. Just another example of why I'm souring on collecting lately

Reminder: "This item will also be available at select retailers in Asia and North America beginning November 4, 2019."
I cannot share the product link to the set at EE yet (embargo) but it does exist in their system already (HSE5291 SW BLACK SERIES DELUXE LUKE).

Lost in the shuffle of pre-orders today, this exclusive is now up for pre-order at JD sponsor Entertainment Earth (https://www.entertainmentearth.com/product/HSE5291?id=JE-405087801) and other fine on-line establishments.

I hear people are just walking into GameStop stores and finding this on the shelves. :o
Way better than this preorder nonsense. I’m going out to look for him today, fingers crossed!
-
I’m thinking now it is just regular Yavin Luke Skywalkwer people are finding at GameStop. He’s not on their website, but Wedge is from that same wave. I had someone check the computer for me over lunch and there were none around here.
I just went ahead and ordered it off Pulse since it is only $30 and I get free shipping there.

McMetal does that mean people are only finding Luke? I found him at GS too. Was thinking about a trip to a further out GS today but not if they're just getting cases of Luke and not Cara Jannah etc
-
I saw Luke at GameStop last night, too, while I was looking for Commander Fox. But at $22.99 I wasn't buying Luke Skywalkwer.

I haven’t read of any other finds from that same wave but if I do I will post here. Will hit a few more GS up at lunch today and see what I can find out...

I saw this at my local Gamestop last night. It was in a glass display case with the Vintage Deadpool and Grey Hulk, where they normally keep the expensive busts and collectibles.
Couldn't bring myself to drop $40 on a bunch of accessories though, despite my earlier thoughts about really wanting them...

Welp, my order arrived today...and what do you know, they sent me a shiny new Marvel Legends Vision figure. :P ::) >:(
After twenty minutes of loud noise on the phone with Hasbro customer service, I got them to agree to ship me a replacement. Originally they told me some BS about opening an investigation at the warehouse that would take 3-5 days but I was not having any of that.
Fingers crossed for the next one.
