• This Emperor Palpatine figure was released in a Celebrate The Saga multipack titled SITH in October 2020
• Unlike most of the other Star Wars: Celebrate The Saga sets, this multipack was not exclusive to a particular retailer
• The other figures in this set were Darth Vader, Darth Maul, Kylo Ren and TC-4
• Palpatine is a re-work of the 2017 Emperor Palpatine figure, this time the figure was given the photo real printing tech updated in the face for a more life-like appearance
• The Force Link voice chip has also been removed from the figure
• Palpatine comes with a walking stick and two extra hands
• The walking stick fits well into the right hand and it's just long enough to touch the ground (yes!)
• The extra set of hands have the Force Lightning permanently attached to them
• It's very easy to exchange the hands, simply pull them off the figure and plug the other hands in
• The hood is not removable
• The pale look on Palpatine's face looks good, and the photo real update looks quite nice in person
• Emperor Palpatine has no balancing issues
• The figure was sculpted beautifully and as of this review (January 2021) it's the best 3.75" Emperor Palpatine figure available based on his appearance in Return Of The Jedi

An ancient order of force-wielders devoted to the dark side, the Sith practice hate, deception, and greed.
