Star Wars Emperor Palpatine Mini Bust by Gentle Giant

“The son of Skywalker must not become a Jedi” It was 35 years ago in The Empire Strikes Back that the feared Sith Lord Emperor Palpatine first felt a great disturbance in the force. Fearing the possibility of Luke Skywalker becoming a powerful young Jedi, he commands Darth Vader to hunt him down and destroy him… or turn him to the dark side. Palpatine will prey on Luke’s anger, fear, and desire for vengeance to realize his sinister goal. The path to the dark side is one travelled well by Palpatine, for he has led another powerful young Jedi down it before. So unfolds the Emperors plan to lure Luke into confrontation with Vader and, ultimately, learn his true destiny. Gentle Giant Ltd. is proud to announce for our Premier Guild members on the 35th anniversary of The Empire Strikes Back- the Emperor Palpatine mini-bust. With the meticulously sculpted folds and texture of his robes to the cold, menacing stare of the portrait, this mini-bust is the perfect visage of the evil Sith Lord.
