Darth Vader Star Wars Collector Series Kenner 1996 12" Action Figure

Anakin Skywalker learned the ways of the Force by his mentor Obi-Wan Kenobi. The young, hot-shot pilot trained hard and his powers grew strong, but he became corrupted by the dark side of the Force. Kenobi tried to bring him back to the light side, but it was too late. His star pupil had fallen too far, too fast.

Master and student inevitably clashed in a fearsome lightsaber duel that ended with Skywalker plummeting into a fiery pit, where his body was hideously deformed. From that point on Anakin Skywalker became the merciless master of the dark side, Darth Vader, and ultimately gained the title Dark Lord of the Sith.

To keep his battered body alive, Vader equipped himself with an ominous black suit complete with flowing cape and body armor to house his life-support systems. His suit was also equipped with temperature and respiratory sensors installed into his computerized chest plate and utility belt. But most terrifying of all was his jet-black armored helmet, fitted with a specialized breathing device, voice synthesizer and full-spectrum optical lenses.

Aligning himself with the evil Emperor Palpatine, the two tyrants were able to gain power throughout the galaxy as their Galactic Empire destroyed all who stood in its way of total domination.

Authentically styled straight from the movies, Darth Vader features his highly detailed outfit complete with cape, and comes armed with his signature lightsaber. This special edition 12" figure, available for the first time ever, is destined to become a classic collectible!
