Screen Rant has the honor of exclusively revealing the first look at the new C-3PO Life-Size Figure by Sideshow. The latest figure in Star Wars collectibles is inspired by the beloved droid who is every space traveler's friend.
C-3PO has been a part of the Star Wars galaxy since the first film premiered as a standalone 1977, where he was introduced as a protocol droid that befriended Luke Skywalker on of an importance message that Princess Leia stored in his companion droid, R2-D2. In the intervening decades since A New Hope, he has become one of the very few characters to appear in all three major trilogies of the franchise: the sequel trilogy.
Of course, just because C-3PO is ubiquitous doesn't mean he's the first Star Wars figure to receive the Life-Size treatment from Sideshow. Characters from every corner of the galaxy have been committed to Sideshow's collection, such as The Mandalorian, and the villainous yet misunderstood Darth Vader from the original trilogy. Sideshow also sells high-quality collectibles both from their own designers and from other manufacturers, such as deluxe sixth scale figures, art prints, and even tiki mugs.
C-3PO Life-Size Figure By Sideshow
And now fans will have a chance at an up close and personal look at the newest life-size statue of C-3PO, courtesy of Sideshow. The incredibly detailed and highly realistic figure stands an impressive 6’2” tall, and is situated on a Millennium Falcon™ inspired display base that mimics the ship's flooring and circuitry details. Everyone's favorite droid comes with his signature gold exterior, which has been meticulously weathered and worn to match his onscreen appearance.
C-3PO's arms are articulated at the shoulder ts and can be rotated to change up his posture, while the magnetic restraining bolt can be removed from his torso, allowing for plenty of flexibility when posing the figure at home. The C-3PO Life-Size Figure is also programmed with a randomized voice track feature controlled by the remote provided, meaning that he can recite a number of iconic lines from a variety of his adventures in the Star Wars saga. Finally, his eyes include a light-up function that can be activated via a button on the back of his head, making him much more than an impressively tall statue.
