Hasbro continue their new Legacy Collection for 2009 with wave two consisting of figures from The Empire Strikes Back. Continuing the success of last year's build-a-droid each one in this wave comes with a component to build the silver protocol droid U-3PO.
The next figure in the line is #39: Emperor Palpatine.
He has head (rotational and vertical), shoulder (rotational and abductional), elbow (rotational and vertical), wrist (rotational), torso (rotational), hips (vertical), knee (rotational and vertical) and ankle (rotational and vertical) articulation which gives him a great 23 ranges of movement.
He comes equipped with a red lightsabre, black cloth cloak, black hard plastic hood and a black walking stick.
There is also the body of U-3PO as well, the remainder of which is with figures #38 and #40 - #43 in the current line.
Not a bad Palpatine figure and the paint and detailing on the face are quite excellent even if they do make him look like something from a horror movie. Really another figure for completists only.Get more detail about
