*Cue the Imperial March Theme, please* As hard as it may be to believe, Friday May 21st will mark the 30th anniversary of the classic Star Wars film, The Empire Strikes Back. In celebration of the momentous occasion, LucasArts has decided to throw a birthday party of sorts, except YOU get the presents… well sort of, anyway.
I say that it is “sort of” a present because most likely it will cost dedicated Star Wars fanboys a metric shit ton. Fighting off the urge to snag every piece of swag will be strong, but I know that with the Force on my side, I can preserve my wallets ever dwindling greenbacks.
So what is included in the new update, you say? I will let the good folks over at LucasArts fill you in:
In total, look out for the following: Imperial snowtrooper (male and female), Boba Fett (male and female), Lando costume with cape (male), Chewbacca (male and female), Rebel snowspeeder pilot (male and female), Han Solo Hoth outfit (male), Leia Hoth outfit (female), Bossk (male and female), C-3PO (male and female), AT-AT pilot (male and female), and props like a tauntaun pet, a ballcap with Yoda ears (male and female), and a lightsaber! — via StarWars.com
Though the impulse buy would result in my avatar becoming a giant Wookie, I can only image that there will be numerous Boba Fetts and Yoda ears showing up very soon all across the service. Check out the gallery below for images of the entire impending imperial invasion.
