These are NOT your Star Wars figures from decades past. See what Final Fantasy publisher Square Enix has done to the classics!

Checkout the what the Japanese company is releasing as ‘Variant Playarts’ models; Darth Vader, Boba Fett, and the generic Imperial Stormtrooper!

All have been give the complete makeover by the company’s designers, and come complete with plastic plumes of fire, force energy, and jetpack propellant.

Take a look at these bad boys, each retails for about $108!

All the designs seem more lithe and action packed, and yet Vader’s seems the most unchanged. I suppose it has to do with the Asian design elements from the original 1970’s design in the first place.

I know what I’m asking Santa for this December!
