I think it is safe to say that zombies have officially taken over the universe…the Star Wars universe that is! Gentle Giant showcases the macabre side of Star Wars with the release of these remarkably horrifying Death Trooper 1/6th scale mini-busts, which is based on and includes the Star Wars: Death Troopers graphic novel by Joe Schreiber.
Nothing can prepare the galaxy for what lies waiting aboard a seemingly abandoned, derelict Star Destroyer. Amidst its vast creaking emptiness the unknown is lurking and the dead are slowly rising: soulless, unstoppable, and unspeakably hungry. Accurately sculpted with detailed and distressed armor and then hand painted to Gentle Giant’s always exacting specifications, this fine collectible is individually numbered with a matching certificate of authenticity.
There are actually 2 versions of the Star Wars Death Trooper Stormtrooper Mini Bust: The Standard Edition is limited to 2,500 pieces worldwide and can be pre-ordered here for $74.99, while the Deluxe Mini Bust is a Gentle Giant Web Exclusive that features detachable armor plates revealing the morbid decay of the Imperial walking dead, including the fiendish face behind the mask! A blaster and 3 additional interchangeable arms are included with the Deluxe Edition allowing for dozens of customizable variations. The Star Wars Death Trooper Stormtrooper Deluxe Mini Bust also retails for $75 and will be available for preorder from Gentle Giant here on June 16th.
