Star Wars Unleashed Figure Assortment Wave 5, Half Pack
These powerful and meticulously designed, artist-interpreted sculptures capture the most compelling Star Wars characters in their most raw and electrifying moments. Each case pack includes one IG-88 figure, one Aurra Sing figure and one Stormtrooper figure: IG-88The inventors of this sentient combat droid smugly believed that a machine could never outthink them. They were wrong. Seconds after they activated the prototype, they were methodically slaughtered by it. IG-88 made three duplicates of itself and began to gather a legion of droids to conquer the galaxy. One of the IG-88 droids became a bounty hunter who answered Darth Vader's call to capture the Millennium Falcon. Cold, calculating and bent on destruction and domination, IG-88 is loaded with concealed weaponry and is chillingly proficient with all of it, resulting in a "dismantle on sight" warrant in over forty systems. Aurra SingVengeful, tormented and lethal, Aurra Sing prowls the galaxy in search of bounty. Her life began in neglect and squalor in the slums of Nar Shaddaa. Escape came when the Jedi Master known as the Dark Woman saw that the Force was strong in Aurra, and brought her to the Jedi Temple. But fate had other plans. Aurra's training abruptly ended when star pirates kidnapped her during off-world Jedi training. She adapted to the life of a criminal and joined the crew. But they in turn sold her to a Hutt crime lord, who apprenticed her to the vampiric Anzati, to train her as an assassin. She emerged a cunning, remorseless hunter bent on revenge against all who had abandoned her. Because of a lie told by the pirates, Aurra believes the Dark Woman gave her to the crew of cutthroats, and so her deepest desire is to destroy every Jedi who crosses her path. StormtrooperAnonymous in their white armor, stormtroopers perform their missions with mindless loyalty to the Empire. They are shock troopers who are called in to put down insurrections and maintain order in the galaxy. Not even a flicker of individuality cracks the uniform façade of the stormtrooper ranks. Any vestige of personality has long ago been eradicated from their genetic makeup, and now they move, breathe and live as one being, an arm of the Emperor, wielded with crushing force. Though they have specific equipment and training for various environments, these differences are slight and, in a disconcerting way, only emphasize their inhuman conformity.
