Star Wars Black Series collectors rejoice! A super cool exclusive is now up for order as Admiral Piett will be gracing our collections in June! Featuring a removable Empire cap and blaster, The Executer's first officer may be the coolest announcement of this years May The 4th celebrations.

  • Includes blaster and removable cap!
  • Add some awesome to your collection! Bring the next big thing in Star Wars home with the Star Wars The Black Series Admiral Piett 6-Inch Action Figure. This out-of-this-world 6-inch scale action figure was developed in conjunction with Lucasfilm, Hasbro, and Gentle Giant to bring you the highest level of detail and authenticity at a price that can't be beat. Collect them all! Ages 8 and up.

This may be one of my favorite entries on Wookieepedia:

An ambitious officer, Firmus Piett was known for his quick thinking in his ability to shift blame for his blunders. After the Executor was lost at Endor under Piett's captaincy, some members of the Imperial Navy, such as Admiral Garrick Versio, judged him foolish.

Also- the name Firmus is one of the coolest names I have ever heard. He was played onscreen by Kenneth Colley and appeared in both Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Even more interesting: Piett is the only Imperial Officer to make it into more than one film and be portrayed by the same actor! He is a superstar! Colley also has one of the best IMDB profile pictures of all-time. I am so happy he is getting a Black Series figure. And this is what exclusives should be- one-of characters that are niche and cool additions to out collections.

The figure is available to preorder right now here.
