Get ready for an exciting addition to the Star Wars toy universe! Hasbro is bringing back the iconic Lord Starkiller, a fan-favorite character from the Force Unleashed video game series. This highly anticipated figure is set to join the Black Series toy line, offering an incredible level of detail and playability. But here's where it gets intriguing...
Sam Witwer's Starkiller, inspired by Darth Vader's former apprentice, is depicted in his 'Lord Starkiller' form. In the game, players who chose the Dark Side ending and killed Vader would transform into Palpatine's deadly assassin. This figure captures that pivotal moment, complete with multiple points of articulation for dynamic posing. It also includes two sets of hands (open and closed) and six different red lightsabers with various hilts, allowing for a wide range of display and play options.
This release marks a significant return to the Force Unleashed franchise, as Hasbro previously introduced the standard Galen Marek in the Black Line. The 'Lord Starkiller' figure joins a lineup of recent standout additions to the 'Gaming Great' series, including Kyle Katarn (from Star Wars: Dark Forces) and Dash Rendar (from Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire).
Despite being currently sold out on the Hasbro website, the 'Lord Starkiller' figure will officially release on July 1st for $43. If you're a Star Wars enthusiast, this is a must-have addition to your collection. Stay tuned for more exciting updates on upcoming releases from Marvel, Star Wars, and Star Trek, as well as the latest news on the DC Universe and Doctor Who!
