Anakin Skywalker's fall to the dark side in Revenge of the Sith is a deeply emotional tragedy. Tormented by visions of Padmé's death and disillusioned with the Jedi Order, Anakin becomes increasingly isolated and vulnerable. Palpatine uses this to manipulate him as a father figure and as someone with answers to saving his wife. Everything becomes full circle with Revenge of the Sith, which celebrates the film's 20th anniversary this year, and Hot Toys is celebrating. A brand new Star Wars 1/6 scale Darth Vader figure has been crafted for the anniversary with a newly developed helmet and head sculpt.
The Dark Lord will also feature a finely tailored suit with a wired cape, capturing his fresh armor from Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. Hot Toys also include his iconic red lightsaber with LED features and a swappable blade, to help strike down Rebel Scum. A specialty theme Imperial display base is also included with an LED feature and a Death Star construction backdrop. Pre-orders are not live just yet, but expect them to arrive soon on Sideshow Collectibles.
