Anyone who has read this site for any amount of time knows that I love the Gentle Giant LTD 12″ Jumbo Star Wars line and have been collecting it for many years.   That’s why I am honored that our friends over at Diamond Select Toys/Gentle Giant LTD have allowed us to debut this first look at the next figure in that long running line.  This announcement if for a brand-new figure that was never released as part of the original Kenner Star Wars line, because it is from the prequel trilogy, but it is done in the same style, so it fits in perfectly with the rest of the collection:

Star Wars Jumbo Darth Vader (First Appearance) 12″ Figure

A Gentle Giant LTD release! Darth Vader rises in this all-new retro-styled Jumbo figure! Based on Anakin Skywalker’s first appearance as Darth Vader in Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, this 12-inch figure is inspired by classic Star Wars toys, with five points of articulation, a vinyl robe and a telescoping lightsaber. It comes packaged on a full-color retro cardback inside a resealable plastic blister.
