• This Galen Marek figure is based on the character's appearance in the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed video game series
• The figure is a re-release of the Hasbro Pulse Con 2023 Black Series Starkiller exclusive figure, but this time the figure includes only one head sculpt and less accessories
• The included lightsaber fits well into both hands
• It's easy to remove the red blade from the lightsaber, simply pull it off the hilt
• The lightsaber hilt can be plugged into a hole on the belt
• The shoulder armor and the waist kama are separately sculpted pieces but can't be taken off the figure
• The waist kama has five holes in it where lightsaber hilts can be plugged in, but unfortunately Hasbro only included one saber hilt with the figure
• Hasbro has been removing swivel thighs from Black Series figures lately and this Galen Marek figure falls victim to this as well, luckily swivel thighs aren't needed here because the figure can be posed in many different dynamic poses and still keep the balance well
• The head sculpt with the photo real print on it looks good in person
• Where this figure falls short is unfortunately with the paint application, while the clothing and the accessories were painted nicely there is no weathering or wash to be found on this figure for a more lived-in-universe look
• If the Hasbro Pulse Con 2023 exclusive version was too expensive for you and you don't need the extra accessories and head sculpts, then this single boxed release is a great alternative and a nice addition to the collection

Galen Marek, code name "Starkiller", was a Force-sensitve human who became Darth Vader's apprentice during the Galactic Empire's reign.
