I bet that amazon listing will get pulled down quickly, Hasbro hasn't released the word on this one yet.

It looks like we’re getting more Prequel characters for the 6 inch line, including our favorite Gungan! Well, why not if Hasbro even made Holdo...

The other two will definitely be strong sellers...!

“I’ve been looking forward to this!”

I wonder when we’ll  finally see a Count Dooku in The Vintage Collection...but getting him in The Black Series is definitely a positive sign.

Have you ever visited the website of the artist behind Hasbro's The Black Series?

Here's the link with some sharp images:

JediInsider.com reports on the third figure for the Black Series Gaming Greats Sub-Line. I do hope that Hasbro sees the potential of all These Videogame characters when exclusive retail partners like Game Stop ask for more!

And the next one is…

YakFace reports about possible news regarding the "Gaming Greats" sub-line of the Back Series...so many possibilities here and Darth Nihilus would be just one of them…
Thanks to t0ytime on Instagram!

[Tamer]

Now that would be one cool line. A line of figures soley for characters we saw in our fav. SW games. Man, I could ask for a few. I am assuming these would all be 6" figures.

[Darth More]

Well, it seems that the “Gaming Greats“ will continue. And EB Games jumped on the train and gets those figures as well now. Jango Fett and the Clone Trooper Lieutenant are rumored to join this sub-line.

With the reset of the Black Series with separate numbering for each movie/source, I wonder if Hasbro would also listen to fans and make a separate line for the original 96 fiures (even with coins) for The Vintage Collection. It’s kinda annoying to wait for them and pick a single one of them with their numbers being way above 96 by now...

[Tamer]

Interesting. Not sure what their answer would be for your vintage line question. At this point I would just like to see a new vintage line period (new not just repacked).
