Star Wars Darth Vader Build-Up Model
The Darth Vader model stands 101cm (over 3 feet) and features articulated arms, hands and head to create different poses. A faithful reproduction of Darth Vader’s uniform and armor is accurate down to the smallest details complete with helmet, mask, cape, and red-bladed lightsaber. Additional features include a light up chest control plate and sound effects that reproduce Darth Vader’s signature breathing and some of his most famous lines. His iconic red lightsaber lights up and has sound effects. These features are activated with a remote control.
Also on display are two previous Star Wars partworks, including the re-released version of Build The Millennium Falcon, the award-winning partwork that I wrote for eight years ago.
Star Wars R2-D2 Droid Build-Up Model
An incredible half-sized replica features state-of-the-art electronics that enable light up effects and cel phone enabled radio-controlled mobility, moving and turning like the real droid, with extendable and foldable arms. R2-D2 has a projector that can emit messages featuring Princess Leia and Luke Skywalker, as well as speakers and microphones, to respond to verbal commands, communicating using the familiar chirps, whistles, and lights.
Star Wars Millennium Falcon Build-Up Model
Several models of the Millennium Falcon were used to make the original Star Wars trilogy – but the most iconic version was built for the action sequences in Episode V, The Empire Strikes Back. The Fanhome version is an impressive replica and designed to the same scale. The sizeable, completed model measures 32-inches long by 23-inches wide. Hull parts are supplied pre-finished, but expert modelers can apply their own battle scars and weathering to add extra authenticity and personalize the model. The completed Falcon also has working LED effects, and can be wall- or table-mounted, with the landing legs and boarding ramp displayed in open or retracted position. Starting with the Falcon’s own fascinating story, the magazines explore the facts, figures and blueprints of the galaxy’s key starships and spacecrafts including Mission Profiles bringing each ship’s story and abilities to life.
