Unleash the Dark Side with Hot Toys’ Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith Palpatine (Darth Sidious) sixth scale figure

April 28, 2025 by Amie Cranswick

Fresh from the box office success of the film’s 20th anniversary re-release, Hot Toys has unveiled the sixth scale Palpatine collectible figure from Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith which comes with swappable head sculpts and costumes to display as either the Supreme Chancellor or the Sith Lord Darth Sidious; check out the promotional images here…

The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural, and Sheev Palpatine is the most infamous follower of its doctrines. Scheming, powerful, and evil to the core, Darth Sidious restored the Sith and destroyed the Jedi Order. Living a double life, he was also Palpatine, a Naboo Senator and phantom menace. He manipulated the political system of the Galactic Republic until he was named Supreme Chancellor — and eventually Emperor – and ruled the galaxy through fear and tyranny. The galaxy rejoiced when he died at the Battle of Endor, but Sidious had cheated death and patiently plotted a return to power.

Inspired by the iconic Sheev Palpatine from Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, Hot Toys proudly presents this stunning 1/6th scale collectible figure that brings the notorious villain to life!

This meticulously crafted figure features two striking head sculpts—one showcasing Palpatine’s refined visage and the other revealing his terrifying, deformed face after his epic duel with Mace Windu. Dressed in a finely tailored costume made from textured fabrics, this figure captures every intricate detail of the Emperor’s dark essence. It comes complete with a Lightsaber, an LED-lighted Lightsaber for added dramatic flair, and a stylish figure base to showcase your collection.
