Post by: P-Siddy on April 9, 2019, 08:14 PM
Fly guy has reported that Emperor Palpatine with throne and a couple spare heads and force lightning is coming out.  Deluxe or SDCC exclusive?  We’ll find out more soon.

Let's hope Goldblum is right, this is definitely needed.

A quick a google image search pulls this up, courtesy of Andrews toys...

[edit: picture link removed - Jeff]

Count me as impressed, definitely in on this.

Sorry, Hasbro asked us to remove all photos or links until the item is officially revealed... so if you want to see it you'll just need to google or visit Yakface :P

Checked out the Yakface images.  Very cool, but I'm not sure I'm going to bite on this one as I've already got an Emperor figure.  $40 for a throne and some interchangeable heads probably isn't going to move the needle for me.

Palpatine + Throne (https://amzn.to/2Z9mxhK) now up for pre-order at Amazon #sponsoredlink

Pre-order now!  (Or wait eight months and buy it for like $20 or some other crazy low price. :P)

The cackle at the end of the trailer was enough for me to preorder this right away.  I've been hoping for a piece like this in the 6" Black Series pretty much from the time that the line launched (it would be nice to get it in the TVC line, too).

I've been seeing reports that some people who ordered this Palpatine with throne via Amazon have started to receive them.  I got my order in pretty early, but the status of my order is still saying that the delivery is scheduled for next month.  Has anyone else gotten theirs from Amazon yet?

I placed my order for the Palpatine figure on April 24 via Amazon and the site currently says it’s arriving by October 9.  I had actually forgotten I’d ordered the item until this thread popped back up :P

I received this yesterday.  Kind of forgot about it.  Looks nice.

I preordered this set last week and it arrived with the rest of my Force Friday stuff. Very cool, and crazy to think that the Palpatine is 90% redone from the original from 2015. Looks so much better!

I received mine last week on Friday, but Amazon didn’t pack it very well so when the shipping box got damaged during the shipping process, the Palpatine set box also go partly crushed as well.  I returned it and got a better example the other day.  It’s a really neat set and the figure looks fantastic  ;D

I ordered mine last Thursday night right after midnight, still haven’t gotten a shipping notice yet. Nothing for the Carbonized Sith Trooper either.

The neck pegs on the first version and this are different.  Can't swap out the heads.  Hands are also reluctant to come out.  :-\

Yikes, that’s a bummer. I just received mine yesterday and that was the first thing I was gonna do when I open it, swap out one of the spare heads onto the old version. Oh well.
