This would have been the EU Convention exclusive this year had there been conventions. Same sort of deal as the "Skywalker Strikes" Luke figure last year. Available in the EU and then Hasbro Pulse, with possibly some other on-line shops carrying it (TBD).
And yes, a basic 6" Cad Bane figure will be released in the regular 6" line box as well (probably without Todo-360).

So psyched for this, one of my favorite characters in Clone Wars and it looks like a great figure too. Hopefully we will see a Vintage Collection version down the road as well. Keep hoping Bane will show up in live action somewhere at some point too.

Love Cad Bane. Awesome set.

Why does that link take me to some foreign webstore? Is there no listing on Pulse yet? Is this a preorder thing or blink and you miss it?
I’ll be mad if this isn’t as easy to get as the Skywalker set, I saw that thing at Best Buy, GameStop, etc.

Because they were the ones that posted the first pics. Hasbro allowed EU sites to "reveal" this set (as it was supposed to be an EU Con Exclusive). It was easier to link to the site than repost all the pics.
Should go up for pre-order on Hasbro Pulse/US sometime soon it sounds like. Not sure if it will be as easy to find as Skywalker Strikes Luke.

Thanks Jeff! Appreciate the additional info.

Hasbro has sent out the official Press Release (below) to fan sites. The press email confirms that the Cad/Todo 2-pack will be available in the US on October 1st. The press email also confirms that the Todo 360 figure is an item exclusive to this specific set.
Press Release:
STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH CAD BANE AND TODO 360 Figure 2-Pack
(HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Available: Fall 2020)
The STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH CAD BANE AND TODO 360 Figure 2-Pack is carefully detailed to look like the characters from STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS, featuring premium detail and multiple points of articulation. This quality figure 2-pack comes with 2 CAD BANE-inspired blaster accessories that makes a great addition to any STAR WARS collection.

Includes 2 figures and 2 accessories. Available in the US beginning October 1, 2020.

The Cad Bane with TODO figure from the Clone Wars line was one of the few animated figures that I purchased, and it was incredible. This one should be great too.
Looks like new thigh articulation is being used instead of the swivel cuts? Or is that just the holsters?
-
The presentation on this is a lot like the Skywalker Strikes set from last year. Based on the box art it looks like there's going to be a general release version, too. My guess is that the mainline release may not include TODO.

No doubt, but there wasn’t any warning really. Sucks when it’s a surprise.

Wow. That was fast. Glad I was able to get an order in.

Is it really any better when you know what time it's going live but then the site crashes due to traffic and then it sells out in like 5 minutes instead of 15?
I don't know if there's a way to sell a limited edition collectible like this where it doesn't suck for the majority of collectors. Other than the obvious "make more of them". :-\

True. Or, just make the regular release a deluxe just without the fancy packaging.

Mine arrived yesterday, and the ARC Troopers and Wampa are due to be delivered today.
Still no hint of shipping notices for the Deluxe Armorer or the Heroes of Endor multipack.

Anybody manage to get an extra of this they're willing to sell? I was hoping there would be some cancellations/returns that would pop this back up on HasbroPulse, but it doesn't look like that is going to happen.

No luck - I've been watching for one too. I was happy to get the Armorer, but missed this guy and I want the little droid that he comes with.
