HOT TOYS’ Grand Moff Tarkin Figure Will Have You Destroying Planets in No Time

As the summer draws to a close, we can begin to look forward to The Last Jedi, which hits theaters this December. What better way for Hot Toys to help celebrate by releasing the newest 1:6 scale figure in their Star Wars line? When it comes to one-and-done characters, the kick-ass Darth Maul doesn’t hold a candle (or lightsaber) to the arrogance of Grand Moff Tarkin.

First shown over on Kotaku, it’s obvious how Hot Toys steps their game up with each figure they produce. Am I looking at pictures of an action figure or a 4K transfer of A New Hope?

The figure comes with a cloth costume, his conference room chair, three sets of hands for maximum finger-wagging at underlings who try to convince him to evacuate the Death Star “in their moment of triumph,” a collectible stand, and four items that look like David Tennant‘s sonic screwdrivers.

As the Star Wars universe continues to grow, Grand Moff Tarkin is a perfect fit into any collection. Check out more pics in the gallery below. You can purchase Tarkin at Sideshow Collectibles here, or as a set with Darth Vader here.

What do you think? Will you be picking up this Grand Moff Tarkin figure? Will you question why they didn’t just use this figure, Robot Chickenstyle, in Rogue One instead of that arguably regrettable CGI recreation? Let us know all your Tarkin thoughts on Twitter or write in one swift stroke in the comments below.
