HOT TOYS' ANAKIN SKYWALKER

Just ahead of the figure's worldwide release, Sideshow's newest UNBOXING VIDEO gives fans an up-close look at Hot Toys' latest Star Wars™ collectible — the deluxe special edition Anakin Skywalker™ & STAP set...

The B’omarr Monastery™ (hidden deep within the Teth™ jungle) served as a hideout for the Separatist Alliance kidnappers of Rotta the Huttlet™, along with Asajj Ventress™and a battalion of battle droids. 

Led by Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano™, Republic troops staged a daring rescue mission to save the hostage Huttlet. Under heavy fire, Anakin took command of a STAP™, and disposed of the battle droids with his lightsaber, clearing a path for the clone troopers™ to reach the summit.

 

This highly detailed collectible figure draws inspiration from Anakin Skywalker's appearance in the animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars™. Merging Hot Toys' signature ultra-detailed style with the Clone Wars animated design, the figure features a hand-painted head, a tailored fabric costume, and sculpted armor. Accessories include Anakin's lightsaber (with LED light-up feature), a thermal detonator, a hologram projector, several hologram figures representing Ahsoka Tano, Yoda™, and Obi-Wan Kenobi™, and more!

The accompanying STAP vehicle stands approximately 12.59" (32 cm) in height, and features phenomenal paint application with specially applied weathering effects. The drive turbines include LED light-up functions, and every detail — including the articulated grip, the foot pedals, and the steering vane — is faithfully reproduced in 1/6 scale.

Check out the first unboxing video, and find out more about the new Anakin Skywalker & STAP 1/6 Scale Figure Set and its accessories.
