Palpatine (Return of the Jedi) Action Figure: Overview

The facial detail on this Power of the Force Emperor Palpatine action figure isn't as striking as that on its vintage Kenner predecessor but it does feel more accurate. It is also less stooped than the 1983 Emperor Palpatine. Palpatine, I feel, only needs to stoop when he is putting on frailty for effect as he did during the final duel with Mace Windu. The bunching up of the bottom of his cloak at the back is quite a nice little detail.

As a representation of the Emperor, this action figure does manage to capture something of his essence and his presence and despite it being basic in terms of articulation and detail this is quite an achievement for any action figure.

All Star Wars action figures, vehicles, collectibles and Star Wars toys shown on this website are the 3.75 inch scale and from my own private Star Wars collection unless otherwise stated. Where possible original vintage accessories have been used but in some instances I have placed Kenner Star Wars figures with either reproduction weapons and accessories or for Hasbro figures close approximations have been used. This is mostly the case for modern Star Wars lightsabers where the correct item can be very difficult to identify on some ocassions. Vintage Star Wars action figures are shown with their original weapon or accessory when I have them. When a vintage Kenner action figure is shown with an accessory which is not original I have tried to point this out where possible.

All of the Star Wars action figures shown were purchased second hand, usually incomplete, and in bulk. They have been reunited with their original weapons and accessories where we could get hold of them.
