Toy Fair 2019 - Hasbro Gets Hyperreal

By Adam Pawlus — Saturday, February 16, 2019

Star Wars gets too real! $80 for Hasbro's most decked-out Darth Vader ever. A metal skeleton boasting more articulation than ever before inside a soft rubber skin makes one wonder what that means for long-term viability, but the A+ deco and optional hands might make you just buy it anyway.

Hasbro went out of their way to confirm it's an Empire Strikes Back version and he'd need a sparring partner, so buckle up for a Luke of some sort later. While impressive, this 8-inch new figure is a new scale and costs almost as much as a whole wave of 6-inch The Black Series. It's like a Transformers Masterpiece Edition, but an action figure.
