Rejoice, fans of Star Wars: Force Unleashed games: Starkiller by Sam Witwer adorns the Black Series toy line in a few months.
Hasbro recently released new pics in a figure inspired by Darth Vader’s former apprentice in his “Lord Starkiller” form. In the original Released, Players get this outfit by choosing the Dark Side and killing Vader, only to become Palpatine’s new assassin. The DLC later spins it into a short AU that shows what happens when he enters the story of A New Hope and The Empire Returns, and spoiler: the OT characters don’t end well.
With multiple points of articulation for posing purposes, the “Lord Starkiller” figure has two sets of hands—one open, one closed—and six different red lightsabers and different hilts that can be attached to his belt. The figure makes a surprising return to Force Released after Hasbro finally brought the standard Galen Marek to the Black Line, hot on the heels of other recent standout additions to the “Gaming Great” series, which was last year. Kyle Katarn (in Star Wars: Dark Forces fame) and Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire LEAD Dash rendering.
While it’s currently on sale on the Hasbro website, the “Lord Starkiller” figure will officially be released on July 1 for $43.
