Hot Toys ROTJ Emperor Palpatine

[SilverStar17]

Pretend he's already said it.

Although for many people, it'll probably be their R1 Vaders that he'll probably be saying "leave us" to.

 

[Wor-Gar]

He should have never said Leave Us... those Guards took that order very seriously. Even when the Emperor is attacked, screaming for his life, those two red guys are outside just looking at each other -- well, he told us to leave? Yeah, he hasn't said come back yet.

Yep. So that's on him.

 

[TaliBane]

in that picture of the emperor looks like he sporting a beard.

GG, I see where you're going with this and I'm not sure I like it.

 

[phobicsquirrel]

I see a throne in the Luke pics...

yeah I was like what the hell Abraham Lincoln as the emperor. come on now I know he was president! but now he wants to play emperor now. I guess he really wants to rule the world instead

 

[SilverStar17]

You see correctly.

In advertisement proto photos, don't necessarily pay attention to just the product they're advertising, but to secondary items in the photos as harbingers on what's in the pipeline.

If there's a deluxe with throne and it's reasonably priced, I would be interested in that. Luke, Vader, and Emperor would make a great looking display.

You have a keen eye Mr Holmes.

What's great is, with like as a Q3 2018 release, Vader and the Emperor will likely be same or later, plenty of time to save. I'm going to try and save and plan to get the trio, had them in Sideshow figures, had to sell all 3 but it's one of the most defining visuals of Star Wars for me.

- Jabba's Palace
- Obi-Wan vs Anakin
- Vader vs Luke vs Emperor

Above all else, those things really encapsulate my love for Star Wars, I have Jabba on throne, I have an art piece from Celebration 3 representing the Anakin-Obi-Wan dynamic, these three figures from Jedi would top it off.

 

[Aliaz]

I already have the JazzInc throne on order but excited about this figure.

Three very good scenes to choose to capture the essence of SW.

That's freaking hilarious.

"Should we go back anyway?"

"And wait another 20 years for a worker's comp check like we had to do after Yoda entered the room?"

"Good point."

 

[Wor-Gar]

That's the kind of extended footage I want to see.

New ROTJ:SE:

After Luke drags Vader out of the throne room cut to the two Royal Guards who did nothing to stop them. They remove their masks to reveal...Jyn and Cassian as deep cover agents who abandoned the Emperor when he needed them most! Dun dun dunnnn!!! As Luke escapes on the shuttle Jyn and Cassian hug as the Death Star explodes around them, once again paying the ultimate price for their heroism.

Hey maybe then I'll finally get a Cassian figure.

 

[K1NG J0RDAN]

Hey maybe then I'll finally get a Cassian figure.

Poe is one of the best pilots ever & still can't get a figure. Idk if we'll ever see Cassian, either.

 

[Mike86]

I'm wondering how much this will be. Hopefully the throne won't put it too over the top. I think I'd have to have both figure and throne though so I'll likely bite the bullet no matter what the cost is.

After Jedi Luke and this there are only a few more figures that I really want. Just give me Bespin Han, Lando, and Jabba with throne and I'll be pretty much good. I don't know if I'll even buy a second Vader honestly. A couple other characters would be extra icing on the cake but not necessarily must have such as Royal Guards, Wicket, Lando in Skiff Guard disguise, and Leia in Boushh disguise.

 

[The Mike]

Agreed.

Palps for like $210. With Throne chair for $249.99-259.99.

$229 seems to be the new lower end price point. So I'm guess $229 for The Emperor and $299 for the Throne/Emperor combo which if done similar to the R2 unit coming will probably have sound and lights.
