It's time for another Kotobukiya spotlight article! Stop by to check out the very detailed bossk. Kotobukiya is gearing up for Toy Fair, and as a preview we will be bringing you a few more Spotlight articles over the next few days, including another from the upcoming Bounty Hunter Series...

STAR WARS: THE BOUNTY HUNTER SERIES
BOSSK ARTFX STATUE

A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! The acclaimed series of Kotobukiya ARTFX Statues expands with the addition of the highest requested characters from the Star Wars universe: THE BOUNTY HUNTER SERIES!

From the darkest chapter of the saga, Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, Darth Vader has summoned six of the fiercest mercenaries in the universe: Dengar, Zuckuss, Boba Fett, IG-88, 4-LOM…and the notorious Wookie-hunting Bossk.

The remorseless Bossk (whose name translates as “Devours His Prey” in his native Trandonshan tongue) is a hunter with a reputation feared galaxy wide, and also an heir to the leadership of the Bounty Hunter Guild. The reptilian humanoid stands almost a foot tall (11 ¾ in 1/7th scale), with his scales and features exactingly replicated, resulting in an uncannily detailed appearance. Posed on the prowl for his latest target, Bossk includes his Rebley-v10 Micro Grenade Launcher.

Each of the Bounty Hunters will include special bonus parts for you to collect. Once all six Hunters have been released, you will be able to assemble the bonus parts into a brand new, full size DARTH VADER ARTFX Statue! A free $100 value given at no additional cost! The bases in this series can be linked together on any side, creating a variety of display options for the full series of characters. Line them up as first seen in Empire, or use the Darth Vader as a centerpiece to assemble the bases to create the symbol of the Galactic Empire! Bossk’s bonus part is: Darth Vader’s Torso and Right Arm #1.

That is a lot of bounty to be hunted, so let’s review…

A new ARTFX Statue each month, six in total
Interlocking bases, which can be arranged to form the Imperial logo
Bonus figure parts that can be assembled into a full size Darth Vader statue
Additional bonus parts will also be included so that Vader can be displayed in three different poses

With its large scale and impeccable paint applications, this ARTFX Statue is a snap-fit kit that can be easily put together in seconds without glue or modeling skill. Look for a new Bounty Hunter each month!
