Even though the Maquarrie Vader-Luke was not on display for our visit with Dark Horse today to talk about the Kotobukiya line our time with them was more fruitful than we could have imagined!

Let's start with the Maquarrie Vader-Luke vinyl figure. This piece will be a limited edition piece that will be divided per region. Japan, Europe, the US, etc. will all receive an allotted amount of the figure and the boxes and pieces will be marked accordingly. The US will receive 2,700 of this fantastic figure and it will retail at $200. Remember to place those pre-orders as soon as they pop up...this is sure to be a hot piece! Also, the back of the box will display a very nice rendition of the Maquarrie art.

Starting this summer the Koto line we all know and love will catch on fire. To start off with they will be offering a new Episode III Obi-Wan Kenobi. This version of Obi will be sculpted so that it can be combined with the General Grievous that will follow as the next piece.

As usual...keep checking in with JTA for the latest information...it is sure to be worth the wait!
In the mean time, here's a small gallery of what they had in their showroom...

    Here are some details on the Ralph McQuarrie Darth vs. Luke:
    The Darth Vader and Luke Slywalker figures can be displayed together, locked in the iconic pose made famous by McQuarrie's classic illustration, or separately. Together, the combined bases measure approximately 16.5 inches long, with Vader standing about 11 inches tall.

    This is a special two-pack that will be a one-time production run, and will not be reproduced in the future. A statement of limitation will be printed on each package, as well as a special serial numbered sticker that will be exclusive for each territory (Europe, Japan, and North America). The back of the box is a gigantic preproduction of the original McQuarrie artwork.
