Two important events happened on Utapau: General Grievous died and Commander Cody received Order 66 to kill General Kenobi. Thanks to his battalion’s ineptitude, Obi-Wan escaped. Way to go guys! Now their colossal failures have been immortalized in a new deluxe 1/6 scale action figure. Both the Exclusive Utapau Airborne Trooper with a special 2nd Airborne Company Base featuring the ‘Parjai Squad’ Emblem and the regular edition will cost you $134.99 with an arrival date sometime in November. You can pre-order yours here.
The Vintage waves of Star Wars figures will soon be getting a face lift. The fourth wave of this year’s line features blue packaging. Look for Episode VI Darth Vader, Episode I Jar Jar Binks, Episode II Clone Lieutenant, Episode III Shock Trooper, Episode IV Sandtrooper, and Episode V Princess Leia – Bespin Escape in August or you can pre-order the set here.
If you are a Jedi, don’t turn your back on this guy. You never know when an order 66 may come down. This 1/6 scale clone trooper features a modified phase II helmet, a fabric body suit, a shoulder bell 7 harness, a full body armor set, 13 interchangable hands, two pairs of boots, over 30 points of articulation, a blaster rifle and carbine, and the Sideshow exclusive version has a special 91st Reconnaissance Corps’ display base. He’s up for pre-order here with an arrival date of August.
The second wave of Mass Effect figures gets rescued, packaged pics of new Masters of the Universe Classics and another week, another deluxe clone trooper. This is Articulation Times.
