Star Wars Celebration Japan 2025 | Hot Toys Darth Vader (Sith Apprentice)

Hot Toys reveals their final exclusive figure for Star Wars Celebraiton Japan!

Today, Hot Toys has announced their final exclusive figure for Star Wars Celebration Japan. The event takes place at Makuhari Messe from April 18 to April 20. There will be 1,500 units available during the event at the Hot Toys store. While 1,000 units will later be available in selected channels. This final exclusive figure is Darth Vader (Sith Apprentice). This is a Sith eyes version of the recent Artisan edition of Anakin Skywalker.

Anakin Skywalker is a Jedi Knight-turned-Sith Lord. Used to be an apprentice of Obi-Wan Kenobi, he had sought to excel and live up to his reputation, but the passion often brought him into conflict with his mentor. Then seduced by the dark side of the Force, Anakin Skywalker pledged himself to the Sith Lord, Darth Sidious, and eventually took the name, Darth Vader.

We know that Anakin Skywalker is a must-have for your Star Wars sixth-scale collection, but today’s Darth Vader™ (Sith Apprentice), in particular, in Artisan Edition AND as Sith Apprentice, goes two steps further to upgrade your Star Wars display with the most anticipated figure ever.

Exquisitely-crafted featuring separate rolling eyeballs, the all-new Darth Vader (Sith Apprentice) head sculpt is designed with wool hair implantation and painted with authentic makeup to illustrate his Sith appearance. The wool hair on Darth Vader allows for intricate curly hair to be re-created in a realistic representation, enhancing the overall head sculpt likeness to well-replicating the texture of human hair when examined closely. Meanwhile, Anakin’s makeup, with eyes surrounded by a smoky haze, highlights the iconic red Sith eyes when turning himself to the dark side. As a finishing touch, Darth Vader’s interchangeable mechno right arm, a LED light-up lightsaber with an extra Darth Vader lightsaber tops off the finely tailored Jedi ensembles. An exclusive Japan Edition version that comes with an additional special box sleeve, limited to 1,500 units, is available in Japan; and Hot Toys Exclusive version, limited to 1,000 units, is available in selected channels.

This Artisan Edition of 1/6th scale Darth Vader™ (Sith Apprentice) Collectible Figure is perfect for your Star Wars display that really needs a masterpiece.
