Dark Horse Deluxe announces that the acclaimed series of Kotobukiya ARTFX Statues is expanding with the addition of the most requested characters from the Star Wars universe: THE BOUNTY HUNTERS SERIES! From the darkest chapter of the saga, Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, Darth Vader has summoned mercenaries from across the galaxy to help him capture Han Solo, thereby luring Luke Skywalker into a deadly confrontation. Six of the fiercest hunters are assembled: Dengar, 4-LOM, Zuckass, Bossk, IG-88, and the legendary BOBA FETT. The enigmatic Boba Fett stands 11 3/4" inches tall in a dynamic combat pose, simultaneously flying and firing his flame-thrower. His distinctive Mandalorian armor has been replicated with stunning accuracy, with detailing based upon the costume used in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.

Each of the Bounty Hunters will include special collectors bonus parts. Once all six Hunters have been released, the bonus parts from each statue can be assembled to create a brand new, full-size DARTH VADER ARTFX statue! Fett will include Darth Vader’s left arm. There will also be additional extra-special secret bonus parts included with upcoming Hunters so that Darth Vader can be displayed in three different poses. The Hunters will mount on a unique hexagonal base, which can be linked together on any side, creating a variety of display options for the full series of characters—including an arrangement that forms the Imperial logo!

With its large scale and impeccable paint applications, this ARTFX Statue is a snap-fit kit that can be easily put together in seconds without glue or modeling skill. Look for a new Bounty Hunter each month, with the next release scheduled to be IG-88!

Boba Fett will be available through Dark Horse Deluxe starting on April 23, 2008 with a new Bounty Hunter release each month. Each of the Bounty Hunters will have an SRP of $125.00.
