Weweren’t too soldon Hasbro ’s first release in its young , large - scale Star Wars “ Hyperreal ” melodic phrase , an 8″ Darth Vader that finger clunky and unsure of just who it was really for .

Like Vader , Luke come up with a bunch of alternate paw and a infrastructure revolutionize by the grill flooring of Cloud City ’s carbonite suspend sleeping room , and a ton of accessary , like an substitute “ I just learned that this dude who chop my helping hand off is actually my pappa ! ! ! ! ” head , his lightsaber with a detachable blade , and his chargeman pistol . But while the figure itself looks great in these shots , what has us freaking out is the packaging . Because oh my god , those renders of misfortunate Luke look like he ’s halfway turning into He - Man like that giant - chested Hasbro - Kenner Power of the Force image just without the muscle . Thank god the figure itself look much nice , consider it ’ll cost you $ 80 when it drops in June . [ Toyark ]
