BrutalGamer Bringing you Brutally Honest feedback from today's entertainment industry.
Sideshow’s latest Hot Toys unboxing hails from a fan-favorite game with Star Wars: The Force Unleashed‘s Lord Starkiller.
Fallen to the Dark Side
If you remember Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, then you know the game had two possible paths for players to take with star character Galen Marek. One was, naturally, a heroic one that saw Marek become a Jedi in the fledgling Rebellion. On the flip side though, fans could also take him into the Dark Side, eventually even getting a wicked looking Sith costume.
That’s just the thread that Hot Toys has picked up on too, for its upcoming Lord Starkiller collector figure. The sixth scale figure will feature a detailed version of the full suit from the game, and comes packed with a bevy of accessories that includes a whopping seven lightsaber hilts.
While the 12″ scale figure isn’t set to ship until some time next year, Sideshow has unleashed a full unboxing now, to get fans an early look.
The highly detailed Lord Starkiller™ 1/6 Scale Figure features 30 points of articulation and sports a finely crafted battle-damaged helmet with back braid.
The dark apprentice wears an intricate, tailored costume with metallic silver-color shoulder and back armor, accordion forearm gauntlets, a black belt with apron, and 4 non-detachable lightsaber hilts. Accessories include an LED light-up lightsaber powered by USB, two hilts with detachable blades, plus blade-in-motion effects.
Bring the dark side to your collection with the Lord Starkiller™ 1/6 Scale Figureby Hot Toys. Available to pre-order now from Sideshow.com.
Sideshow press release
Lord Starkiller does indeed come in two editions, with both Collector and Exclusive Editions from Sideshow. The difference is that collector coin that you see in the unboxing above, though it’s actually sold out as of right now. You can still add your name to the wait list however, and the Collector version is readily orderable.
The figure is priced in at $270 USD, and is scheduled to ship some time between April and September of 2025.
