Emperor Palpatine – 1/10 Scale ARTFX+ Statue – Star Wars: Return of the Jedi

The incredible Star Wars ARTFX+ lineup from Kotobukiya celebrates the iconic heroes and villains from across the entire range of films, and for the latest addition we return to 1983’s Episode VI: Return of the Jedi and one of the most evil characters in all of science-fiction: Emperor Palpatine!  From humble beginnings as a senator from Naboo the brilliant politician gained in power until he could overthrow the Galactic Republic and install himself as a dictator, and subsequently ruled the galaxy with an iron fist.  If that wasn’t enough, he was a Dark Lord of the Sith and engineered the near-eradication of the Jedi with the help of his apprentices ending with Darth Vader.  Finally, the master of the Dark Side comes to the Star Wars 1/10th ARTFX+ series in a setting that jumps right off the screen featuring the seated Emperor and his throne from the second Death Star!

While at the height of his Force powers Palpatine was a decrepit old man by the time Luke Skywalker and the Rebels attempted to destroy the second Death Star over Endor, and that’s exactly how he appears here.  The Emperor sits on his futuristic black throne, leaning back regally to watch events unfolding as he has foreseen.  The Sith Lord wears voluminous black robes with richly sculpted textures, and at his neck is a clasp with arcane artwork in dark metal.  Only Palpatine’s aged hands and face are exposed, the former resting on the arms of this throne and the latter in shadow under the robe’s hood.  The Emperor’s blasted features are recreated with stomach-churning accuracy, and his expression is calm as he looks out with malevolent red and yellow eyes. Emperor Palpatine is just over 5 ½ inches tall (in ARTFX+ 1/10th scale) sitting on his throne, and the figure is removable to give you even more display options.  The furniture itself has been painstakingly crafted to recreate the one onscreen and it features glossy black surfaces with control mechanisms and more.  Any fan of the Dark Side will find the Emperor a perfect centerpiece in their display, and of course he will look great alongside other ARTFX+ Statues like Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker!
