Kotobukiya’s Star Wars ArtFX Scenes

Back in November, Kotobukiya decided to take a few photos of their Star Wars ArtFX statues while attempting to recreate some memorable scenes from the holy trilogy. Given that they only had Darth Vader, some Stormtroopers, and Boba Fett to work with at the time, I’d say they did pretty well for themselves. The statues are incredibly detailed, and thankfully lack the need for finer details like facial features, etc. No doubt that would have made their job a little more difficult. 

While you won’t be able to find these listed on their official website these days, you can check out their Emperor’s Royal Guard ArtFX statue. I always thought those guys looked awesome. It’s a shame they never really did anything but stand around in the original films. I’m sure I’ll get to see them in action some day. Until then, the ArtFX statue will have to do.
