This Kotobukiya Star Wars Emperor Palpatine Artfx Statue has been personally hand-signed by Star Wars icon Ian McDiarmid on the base during his signing with Celebrity Authentics. Kotobukiya presents none other than Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi!  Palpatine is sculpted in in detail from his calculating face to the creases in his robe. Statue can be removed from the throne and stands approximately 6" tall. Scheming, powerful, and evil to the core, Darth Sidious restored the Sith and destroyed the Jedi Order. Living a double life, Sidious was in fact Palpatine, a Naboo Senator and phantom menace. Ships in original display box and packaging, affixed with Celebrity Authentics serial-numbered and tamper evident Authentication Hologram and includes Celebrity Authentics Certificate of Authenticity featuring picture of Ian signing the base.
