Hot Toys reveals Darth Vader figure and more
By Matthew Roth
On the heels of the conclusion of Disney+’s Obi-Wan Kenobi, Hot Toys has announced a new Darth Vader figure. Fans of the show may remember in the conclusion of the finale and battle between Darth and Obi-Wan that Vader’s helmet becomes damaged and we are then hit with a powerfully haunting scene. Now you can own a 1:6 scale version of this figure.
The figure is available in both standard and deluxe versions. The figure details the gash in Darth Vader’s helmet revealing the fallen Jedi’s scarred face and haunting eye. It will also come equipped with a rolling eyeball function, battle damaged chest control system, LED light up belt, LED lightup lightsaber, interchangeable lightsaber blade, a pair of lightsabers from the Third Sister, and a rock based diorama. The figure will also come with an interchangeable head allowing for a fully covered and repaired helmet or you can opt for the battle damaged version.
The special edition version of the figure will also come with a miniature Grand Inquisitor hologram and holoprojector. This is a must grab for any Star Wars collector! The announcement came after the figure was announced of Obi-Wan Kenobi as seen during this same battle. The Kenobi figure is also a 1:6 scale that comes equipped with a rolling eyeball function, the Jedi outfit from the show, LED light up saber, interchangeable blade, a blaster, LO-LA59 droid, a rocky base, and a hologram of Bail Organa. The special edition version will come equipped with Anakin’s lightsaber hilt and a box as an added bonus.
The series shows a broken Kenobi now known as Ben as he is called back into action by his old friend Bail Organa after his daughter Leia was kidnapped. It culminates in an epic showdown of master and former apprentice. Kenobi is available everywhere on Disney Plus.
