Samurai Darth Vader Figure Is Undeniably Awesome
An all-new figure in Tamashii’s Maisho Movie Realization Star Wars line came out this month. This time it’s the samurai “Daisho” Darth Vader.
The 7-inch poseable figure depicts Vader as a samurai general, wearing black “Death Star” armor and carrying two different swords. Take a look at the gallery below to get some close-ups.
The Maisho Movie Realization Star Wars line has reimagined a few different Empire characters in the past, giving them a distinctly Eastern aesthetic. If you’d like to see more, some were included in our holiday buying guide from last year.
The Vader figure is being distributed by Bluefin, and can be purchased here or at other retailers nationwide.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
