It doesn't go up today. There's no pre-order date set yet.
Is this the first time "Grogu" has appeared in print on any toy packaging?

I believe so. They specifically mentioned that was the case in the livestream.

I think its pretty cool we have all these Mandos, different styles and different packaging!
And yet, he's called "The Mandalorian" here instead of Din Djarin like in the first build-up pack. Go figure.
SUKA!
Mmmmmm caramel filling.

If you don't count "Galactic Snackin' Grogu"!

The Force-sensitive alien returns as a new toy...with an appetite.

Maybe they reserve that for the figures with removable helmets? For whatever tortured reason. I'm sure it just comes down to branding – he's the title character.
Just watch eBay for pre-order links! LOL
It is right if we go by the timeline, as the name Din was only revealed at the end of the first season if I remember correctly.

Well the box also says Grogu, which wasn't revealed until season 2.
I think Disney is interested in keeping "The Mandalorian" as his official name. Din Djarin is his name from his old life. It would be like labelling all Vader figures "Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader)."

Maybe they’re also considering Din Djarin as an operative part of his identity only when unmasked. The TVC “Din Djarin” also has a removable mask IIRC.
Kind of going off on a tangent here, but why did they throw in "galactic" in the toy's name? Snakin' Grogu is more zippy.If you don't count "Galactic Snackin' Grogu"!

Could be, I mean all things considered the Clan that rescued him might have giving him a new "Mandalorian" name. Thus his birth name which was a part of his old life and is now dead.
After all Rey can change her name on a whim.
They can as a driver's license isn't needed in their galaxy.

Well, crap, I thought I was gonna be able to pass up Mando "Now with Mud!" but I might just have to get this set now, just for the 1st-season Orkan space-pod...

Product page is now up, but NOT LIVE - PREORDERS HAVE NOT STARTED YET. Should be going up for pre-order any day now. I'm guessing it will go live on Sunday for their Geek-Out finale.

Target has gotten better about scalping with the limits per account. Some people got away with multiples on multiple accounts and some got canceled. Target is still the worst imo, behind the hive of scum and villainy that is Walmart
We must be cautious...

Pre-orders have not started yet. Have adjusted my post accordingly if it wasn't clear to everyone.

I half expected this to go up as part of the Geek-Out event, but alas no...
It would appear that Antok's X-Wing was the big item going live for the event, although this could always go up at some time tomorrow morning/afternoon.I half expected this to go up as part of the Geek-Out event, but alas no...

^ It was Merrick's X-Wing, the Retro Proto Stormtrooper, & a Grogu Pop.
I'm doubtful that this would go up later today as the Geek-Out finale in the summer, and now this one, were almost entirely previously available items. However, I'm willing to be surprised since I wouldn't put it past Target to pull a stunt like this - randomly putting it up for order with no announcement.

The Droids figures went up at 9AM, so I'd think that would be the time this morning. However, the Geek-out event page clearly shows the items made available today, and Mando wasn't one of them. Guess we'll just have to keep watching and waiting.
Neat idea. I'm surprised it took this long for this release.
Hasbro, please give Din a new helmet sculpt so I can finally buy a 6" Mando.

I have to admit that maybe somewhat aside from size, I have never really seen the issues with Mando's helmet.
So what’s the deal with this, are they not actually announcing when this is up for sale? Is that their grand anti-bot tactic?
Mmmm,nougat.The egg looks to have a removable top:

This is #14 in the Phase IV The Mandalorian sub-line.
This is so bonkers!! This set never went up to pre-order, but the new set revealed at PulseCon is. I thought maybe I forgot to pre-order this one when I saw the Sold Out.
