The next report on Kotobukiya is on a new ARTFX+ Statue collection is on the new Star Wars CGI movie, The Clone Wars. The movie is… a prequel to a… side story that takes place… during the prequel saga (pardon my humor Mr. Lucas). The Clone Wars collection is divided up into two (hopefully more) series, and the theme for the first series are the Jedi. The first image below is of Obi Wan Kenobi standing seven inches tall and in his protective armor. The next one is of the movie’s protagonist Anakin Skywalker. Standing just a quarter inch taller than Obi Wan, his dark color scheme contradicts with his teacher’s lighter shade of brown. Last but not least is Anakin’s young padawan Ashoka Tano. The Togruta female stands a bit shorter than her other jedi coutnerparts at 5 4/5″ tall. The familiar figure on Ashoka’s back is Rotta, the infant son of Jabba the Hutt. Collectors will also be interested to know that the backpack that little tyke sits in is also an interchangeable accessory, and can also be placed on the back of Anakin. Finally fans of the series will also be happy to know that each character comes with a bonus piece to Yoda the grand Jedi master, which fans will be able to easily build once they collect all three statues (as you see above).
With an SRP of $59.99 each, the statues are set to hit the streets this coming January.
