Every Star Wars Character Who Knew Anakin Was Darth Vader
Darth Vader’s true identity was a closely-guarded secret during Palpatine’s reign – but there’s still a few characters confirmed to know it.
Both figures go on sale on March 14th at 1 PM ET and are part of Lucasfilm’s month-long product unveiling featuring new clothing, toys, action figures, collectibles, and more, with a particular focus on the villains of the Star Wars galaxy. Darth Vader, no doubt one of the greatest villains in Star Wars, is depicted in his iconic helmet, life-sustaining suit, and cape, holding his classic red lightsaber or using the Force with his hands.

The stormtroopers are also an iconic piece of the Star Wars original trilogy, laying the groundwork not only for the clone troopers in the prequel trilogy but also the First Order’s own stormtroopers in the Star Wars sequel trilogy. These figures can be seen holding their blasters ready for battle or about to leap into action.

This IS The Darth Vader Figure You’re Looking For

Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader
Darth Vader truly is one of Star Wars’ greatest villains. After being introduced in A New Hope as the faceless, deep-breathing evil Sith Lord willing to wipe out entire planets with no remorse, the prequel trilogy made him even more fearsome. Rather than Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace depicting a villainous Darth Vader already drawn to the dark side, the movie showed the innocent young boy Anakin Skywalker.
With this backstory, Star Wars only made Vader’s character arc stronger, reflecting that the power of the dark side is so great that even the most innocent can fall. From there, Anakin only descends further into the evil he would inevitably become. These figures are a perfect reflection of that menacing power, reminiscent of both how Darth Vader began in the Star Wars franchise and how he became that way.
With this backstory, Star Wars
only made Vader’s character arc stronger.
The stormtroopers, too, reflect a long line of Star Wars history, dating back to the original trilogy but now also encompassing the prequels’ clone troopers and the sequels’ First Order stormtroopers. While all iterations are beloved, sometimes there’s no beating the originals. Given the significant and iconic history both Darth Vader and the stormtrooper figures represent, these collectibles are sure to be perfect for any Star Wars collection.
