Prepare for a thrilling addition to your Star Wars collection! The iconic character, Lord Starkiller, is coming to life in a brand-new Black Series toy. But this isn't just any figure—it's a celebration of the beloved Star Wars: Force Unleashed games and the fan-favorite character, Starkiller, played by Sam Witwer.
A Dark Side Revelation:
Recently unveiled by Hasbro, this figure showcases Starkiller in his sinister 'Lord Starkiller' persona, a form players unlock by embracing the Dark Side in the game. In this alternate reality, Starkiller slays Darth Vader and becomes the Emperor's deadly assassin. The downloadable content (DLC) even explores a captivating 'what-if' scenario where Starkiller enters the timeline of 'A New Hope' and 'Empire Strikes Back', leading to a shocking fate for the original trilogy characters.
Articulated for Action:
The 'Lord Starkiller' figure boasts impressive articulation for dynamic posing, and it comes equipped with two pairs of hands and a stunning array of six red lightsabers with various hilts that can be attached to his belt. This release marks a significant return to the Force Unleashed theme, following Hasbro's previous introduction of the standard Galen Marek to the Black Series.
A Hotly Anticipated Arrival:
The 'Lord Starkiller' figure is generating buzz, especially after the recent additions of Kyle Katarn and Dash Rendar to the 'Gaming Greats' series. It's currently sold out on the Hasbro website, but fans can eagerly anticipate its official release on July 1, priced at $43.
And for those who can't get enough of the galaxy far, far away, stay tuned for more updates on Marvel, Star Wars, and Star Trek releases, as well as the latest news from the DC Universe and the time-traveling adventures of Doctor Who.
