There’s no word yet on which assortment (likely 2019s, probably A or B case), what the Kmart exclusives are (last year, the September exclusives were 2017 recolors in 2018 packaging), or what the first-to-markets are (likely B or C case models, depending on which main assortment the cases will have), or if the starting time will remain at 9am local time, or shift forward a couple of hours in response to Target’s collector event starting time in June.

The only other things that ARE known is that the main-in car is the TV Series Batmobile, and that cases will go on sale online likely on the 16th.
