Star Wars 1:4 Scale Figures
Premium Format Figure
Sideshow Collectibles
Limited Edition of 1150
The Premium Format 1:4 Scale Luke & Yoda figure set captures the pair in the
midst of training in the boggy wilderness of Dagobah. The Luke figure is
constructed of hand-cast polystone, each hand-painted to exacting standards, and
meticulously finished, including considered details such as hair strands cast in
flexible metal, designed to add realism to his sweaty hair while simultaneously
preventing breakage. Luke is outfitted for his trek through the swamp, with a
real fabric 1:4 scale reproduction of his sweat-stained clothing. Yoda is
comfortably seated in Luke's backpack, which is finished with real metal buckles
and details. The underside of the detailed, environmental sculpted base is
hand-numbered with the specific edition number of your unique piece.
Spurred by a profound vision, young freedom-fighter and would-be Jedi Luke
Skywalker has travelled across the galaxy on an errand of faith. With nothing
more than the memory of his near-death vision on Hoth and the intangible draw of
the Force to guide him, Luke has found his way to the distant planet of Dagobah.
Arriving on the murky, sodden world of drowned forests and slithering creatures,
at first Luke finds little more than disappointment and mud, a sentiment shared
by the forlorn R2-D2, first to encounter one of the swamp's larger and hungrier
inhabitants.
Meeting a shrivelled and eccentric local does little to improve either's
impression, especially when the tiny, green creature seems interested only in
dishevelling their camp and making a general nuisance of himself as he rifles for
amusing trinkets and snacks. But appearances can be deceptive, as Luke
discovers. This is Yoda's first lesson for the young man, for, in spite of his
doubts and impatience, Luke has indeed found the great Jedi Master spoken of in
his vision. Small and frail Yoda might appear, but through him flows a power
greater than Luke can imagine- the power of life itself, the power of the Force.
Though they have only a short time together, under Yoda's tutelage Luke proves a
quick study in the ways of the Force. Amid the perpetual mists and dripping
gnarled trees, the ancient Jedi instructs him in a vigorous training routine,
both spiritual and physical. Luke has many doubts and questions, but Yoda is a
wise and steady teacher. Almost nine hundred years old, he has taught many Jedi
through the centuries, though Luke's training has greater urgency than any
before him. Within the young Skywalker resides the galaxy's promise for
salvation, an end to the tyranny of the Empire, though even Luke does not yet
know the true role that he must play for this to come to pass.
