Damn....missed out on this preorder.  Any word when these hit store shelves?

Looks like October I think. Course the online thing said not sold in stores. It also says temporarily out of stock.

It's not my cup of tea, since I think Hasbro didn't put in enough effort to really make this the prototype Fett, but I've found out German e-tailer ToyPalace has him up for pre-order:

Remco, don't you think it would be a better base for Mandalorian Customs being all one color?

Not necessarily, Tamer. If you don't count the clones and Imperial troopers, how many white base figures are left? Hundreds of Jedi, Sith, Rebels, aliens have been customized, each not being white  :)

But I agree, white is a good base to begin with. Unless you want to paint him red, than you'll have to first add a layer of grey  ;)

October is only two months away. Now, December 2015.... that's a long time to wait  ;D

It sure does feel like a long wait to me too. It just seems it has been so long since we have seen new things.

Rune, I am not sure they aren't but it sure seemed like an online exclusive. If anyone has any new reports on this let me know and post em here.

Look what I got at my local Walgreens today. Had to ask an associate, he had to page the manager and ask if they were ok to sell. Than grabbed one from behind the sales counter for me. A bit weird, but its beautiful.
