Awesome figure finally coming to a TVC retailer near you!
Be nice if person could buy two at a time from Pulse as I will need a couple extras for customs.

Love the removable helmet! (or is that swap heads?
Everything about this figure is spectacular! Except...we will have to wait a few months to get her. Still, good job Hasbro!

Favorite out of the new reveals. Been looking forward to her since she appeared on the show.
^ It still could be. Bo-Katan as a single release isn't until early 2022. If she's part of the 3-pack then the draw is getting her in August or September, substantially earlier. Repaint her into Koska and Mando into Axe Woves.
Her arms look the right length when compared to episode stills. They're a little thin under the shoulder but I suspect that's deliberate to increase range of motion.

if she does come in a 3-pk with those two, then at least we know they're coming but I would rather get them on single cards so I would wait it out.
If they wanted to get truly creative they could repaint her for Ursa Wren and Rook Kast 3-pk! Then reuse TVC Fett for Pre Viszla, Almec and Obi-Wan(in armor). it doesn't get any easier than this.

Looks good but it looks like they'll need to do multiples per wave.
Hopefully they'll do all of them. Her buddies, Heavy Mando and the Children Of The Watch.
Couldn't have said it any better myself!
Just like the recent ROTJ Boba Fett, this figure also looks better than its recent TBS counterpart. Proof that a larger scale doesn't always mean better accuracy or likeness! Will triple up on Bo, fo sho!
Now we just need some Death Watch troopers for her to fight. Seriously get on this one Hasbro you know they are coming in season 3!
Would we want clone wars realistic ones, or ones from the flashback of the Mando?

I always laugh when people use this word, but its fitting here - FINALLY! We've been asking for her for a decade now, so I am really happy they're releasing her in 3.75 scale, and swappable head / helmet - this is what so many of us have been asking for with the TVC revival, I hope this is a hint of better figures to come.
Brilliant! One of my most wanted figures of the year!
Personally...realistic

Can't wait to see what image they use for the cardback
I imagine un helmeted first reveal or unhelmeted from the bridge of Gideon ship, when Mando returns with the darksaber and her nose is slightly up in the air
This. So much this.
From the new Boba, to Lando and IG-11, to Bo Katan, Kuill, and Mythrol being announced today, the figure quality seems amazing. Here's hoping we can get larger waves with more new figures.
Looks great. And I am glad they are doing switch out helmet/head and not the oversized nonsense. Clearly the 3.75 line is now adult collector oriented based on the change. And I am super ok with it. Down for at least two. And the face on this looks much better than the 6" in my opinion. That version is really nice, but they kinda lost something with the Ms. Sackhoff likeness.
Amazon pre-order link up. Should go "live" in a few minutes.

Copy/paste from Google article. Oddly enough it doesn't look like these TVC pre-orders are popping up on Target. Yet anyway. I can't find them.
I was going to get my extra figs from Target but went Amazon instead. For now anyway.
Preordered on HP this time, because BBTS kept crashing for "maintenance" or whatever.
Bo-Katan appeared in the TVC queue first, by herself, for about 10 minutes. Then the Echo Base Trooper and Mythrol appeared about 5 minutes later, then finally Kuiil 5 minutes after that. Nail-biting, I tell ya.
Then the Republic Trooper wasn't even in the TVC queue for preorder. I had to go to the TBS section to find it. And, for some reason, the TBS Princess Leia was listed in the TVC section.
Weird. But done.

Grabbed her on Amazon. Super-jazzed about this figure, and like the Din Djarin and RotJ Boba, they really got this one right.
Why not both? These are merely repaints after all, aside from the head sculpt for specific characters. But for generic troops all repaints of existing figures with some minor accessory swaps. There are several Mandalorian figures I'd like made from TCW that I want to be realistic as well as a few from the flashback seen and from the Covert scene.
It seems to be we're about due for another EE Mandalorian set with repaints of Bo X2, Din X2 and Fett X2 for Almec, Gar Saxxon, Pre Viszla, Rook Kast, Ursa Wren and ???
They aren't simple repaints though, DW in Mandalorian have entirely different armor from the CW counterparts, which were closer to Jangos armor from AoTC
Kinda bummed that it's removable heads rather than removable helmet (ever since I was a kid, removable helmets are one of the top reasons I buy a figure. Period). But I suppose her head sculpt will be better as a result. Still, *sigh*
I can't recall seeing that feature on a single character where it looked good though, really glad it's gone
