SAN DIEGO
COMIC-CON EXCLUSIVE 2006 The very name of the Fighting 501st inspires fear across the galaxy. These elite troopers - the very best and brightest culled from the Imperial legions - serve Lord Vader in all things. They are the first on the ground in any important Imperial offensive, and the thunder of their boots is a harbinger of the doom that awaits those who would stand against the Empire. Commemorative action figure pays homage to the elite forces serving under Darth Vader. Hasbro made a 501st Legion action figure that was to be sold exclusively at the Hasbro booth at the San Diego Comic-Con back in July 2006. The action figure is the VOTC version of the Stormtrooper and has the "501st Legion" printed on its chest and included is a 501st Legion fabric banner with Imperial Logo display stand. This is the first time that Hasbro and Lucasfilm have honored the 501st in action figure form. This was done as a big THANK YOU from George Lucas who appreciates his fans and what the 501st Legion has been accomplishing. This figure was once again made available to those who could not get the exclusive version of this figure. It was released in a second run with the Comic-Con Exclusive, San Diego 2006 information removed. The figure retails for $14.99.
