It’s that time of year again, as May has become the official Star Wars month on the calendar. May the Fourth, Revenge of the Fifth, the actual anniversary month of all of George Lucas’ Star Wars films. So you’re probably inclined to buy some cool merch right now, celebrating the galaxy far, far away. Well, the folks at the LEGO group have just revealed one of their coolest Star Wars products of the year, and this is one you will want to snatch up right away. Especially all of you dark-sided Sith devotees. LEGO has revealed its new Up-Scaled Darth Vader minifigure, who at 11 inches tall, is not quite so mini a figure. You can check out several images of the most adorable Sith Lord ever, along with the product description, down below:
LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Up-Scaled Minifigure
This deluxe 1,028-piece collectible comes in the same proportions as a regular Darth Vader LEGO minifigure. And it stands over 11 in. (28 cm) tall. So, six times the size of the standard LEGO minifigure. Fans can enjoy building this posable Dark Lord in many different configurations. You can attach his right arm in one of two fixed positions to hold his red lightsaber at different angles. He also comes with a black fabric cape. You can turn the head, move the left arm and hand, along with both legs, to display Vader in different poses. All of this to add a cinematic touch to any room.
This Darth Vader collectible is perfect for any Star Wars fan aged 10 years old and up. Hopefully, he’s the first of many up-scaled LEGO Star Wars minifigures to come. We’d love to see him posed next to a minifigure Emperor, or Darth Maul, or even a minifigure Luke Skywalker to fight. The new Darth Vader Up-Scaled minifigure is up for pre-orders now for the price of $99.99, and starts shipping around June 1.
