• This Black Series Darth Sidious figure was released single boxed in July 2024
• Darth Sidious came with a lightsaber where the red blade is detachable from the hilt, it also included an extra set of hands which have Force Lightning attached
• The lightsaber fits well into both of the figure's hands
• It's easy to exchange the hands, simply pull them off the pegs and plug the new ones on
• Even though the hands with Force Lightning attached are long and add weight to the arms, the joints were stiff enough so that the figure keeps both arms up without sagging down
• The plastic hood is not removable
• The combination of soft-goods for the robe and a plastic hood works very, very well on this figure
• The only downside to having a plastic hood is that the head is almost not movable
• The soft-goods robe might be removable from the figure, but in order to do that you'd have to take the figure apart
• This Black Series Darth Sidious looks outstanding, the face expression, the way the hood sits on the head, the way the robe looks and feels to the touch, it's all there and executed extremely well
• Darth Sidious stands well on display without balancing problems
• Make sure to add this one to your collection, it's a pretty good

The scheming Darth Sidious lived a double life as Palpatine, a Naboo Senator and phantom menace who manipulated the Galactic Republic's political system until he was named Supreme Chancellor.
