18" Comic Hellboy

18" Darkhorse Comic Hellboy - Mezco
Hellboy is a comic book character created by writer-artist Mike Mignola. He has appeared in a number of eponymous miniseries and one-shots, as well as some crossovers. A demon whose true name is Anung Un Rama (the Beast of the Apocalypse), Hellboy was brought to Earth as an infant by Nazi occultists. He was discovered by the Allied Forces; amongst them, Professor Trevor Bruttenholm, who formed the United States Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense (BPRD). In time Hellboy grew to be a large, red-skinned demon with a tail, horns (which he files off, leaving behind the signature circular stumps on his forehead, to make his appearance more "normal"), and an oversized right hand made of stone. He has been described as smelling of dry-roasted peanuts. Although a bit gruff, he shows none of the malevolence thought to be intrinsic to demons, and works with other strange creatures in the BPRD. This is said to be because of his upbringing under Professor Bruttenholm, who raised him as a normal boy and taught him how to be good.

Hellboy fights for the BPRD, an international non-governmental agency, and himself against dark forces including Nazis and Baba Yaga, in a series of tales that have their roots in folklore, pulp magazines, vintage adventure, and horror fiction. He has been dubbed the "World's Greatest Paranormal Investigator" in the comics.

The comics were adapted into a 2004 film starring Ron Perlman, a 2008 film sequel, Hellboy II: The Golden Army, and two straight-to-DVD animated films, Hellboy: Sword of Storms and Hellboy: Blood and Iron

Unleashed Troopers

Unleashed Shadow Stormtrooper - Hasbro
Unleashed Elite Shocktrooper - Hasbro
In Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, the first troopers were cloned from bounty hunter Jango Fett, to be the Army of the Republic in the Clone Wars. In Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, the troopers executed Order 66 at the command of Chancellor Palpatine, attacking their Jedi generals.

Initially, the stormtroopers served as the army of the Galactic Empire, putting down revolts and establishing imperial authority. The Stormtrooper Corps swelled in size after Palpatine allowed the addition of birth born recruits and conscripts alongside the clones.

After the Empire had been stabilized and an Imperial Army/ Imperial Navy established, the stormtroopers became the Emperor’s personal army and were stationed on Imperial bases and cruisers, as well as on the Death Star and Death Star II. They maintained these roles until the Empire’s destruction.

Unleashed Duel

Unleashed Yoda vs. Sidious - Revenge of the Sith - Hasbro
Yoda makes his first on screen appearance in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back where he is responsible for training Luke Skywalker in the ways of the Jedi. His final chronological appearance is Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, when he dies around 900 years old. He also appears extensively in the two animated Clone Wars series, as well as the Star Wars "Expanded Universe" of novels and comic books.

In the original films, he trains Luke Skywalker to fight against the evil Galactic Empire. In the prequel films, he serves as a Grand Master Jedi and a leading member of the Jedi Council and as a general in the Clone Wars.

Palpatine first appeared as the Emperor of the Galactic Empire in the 1980 film Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back as an aged, pale-faced figure who wears dark robes, and later shown to walk with the aid of a twisted wooden cane.

Palpatine rises from Senator to Emperor in the prequel trilogy, in which he appears to be a middle-aged politician of the Republic who gains power through deception and treachery. As the Senator of Naboo and later the Supreme Chancellor, he behaves like a well-intentioned and loyal public servant. Although Palpatine is a well-respected statesman, underneath his affable public persona lurks his true identity: Darth Sidious, a Dark Lord of the Sith. As both Palpatine and Sidious, he sets into motion events — namely the Clone Wars — which ultimately destroy the Jedi Knights and severely weaken the Galactic Senate, thereby ushering in a new totalitarian order.

The character has since become a symbol of evil and sinister deception in popular culture. Palpatine was ranked #3 greatest villain by Wizard magazine on its "100 Greatest Villains of All Time" list.

Darth Vader Unleashed

DARTH VADER Unleashed - Return of the Jedi - Hasbro Target Exclusive
Darth Vader is a fictional character in the Star Wars saga, George Lucas' epic six-film space opera. Vader originally appeared as the Empire's villainous enforcer in the Star Wars Original Trilogy (Episodes IV, V, VI), and briefly turns up as a tragic figure near the end of Revenge of the Sith, the third and final film of the Star Wars Prequel Trilogy (Episodes I, II, III). Lucas, in the audio commentary for Revenge of the Sith, says that he considers both trilogies together to be The Tragedy of Darth Vader. In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Lucas states he "made a series of movies about one thing: Darth Vader." Lucas reiterated this in a May 2008 interview with Total Film: "The Star Wars story is really the tragedy of Darth Vader. That is the story."

In the original Star Wars trilogy, Vader is embodied by David Prowse, though Sebastian Shaw makes a brief appearance as the unmasked Vader in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. In Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, Vader is played by Hayden Christensen. In the original trilogy and Episode III, James Earl Jones provides Vader's voice when he is masked, although Jones was originally uncredited for this role.

In the original trilogy, George Lucas depicts Darth Vader as a fearsome cyborg who acts as the supreme commander of the brutal Galactic Empire. Throughout the films, Vader oppresses the galaxy and hunts down the members of the Rebel Alliance in the service of his master, Emperor Palpatine. In Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, the series' final chronological installment, Vader redeems himself by killing Palpatine and saving his son Luke (Mark Hamill), sacrificing himself in the process.

In the prequel trilogy, Lucas shows Vader as his former self, Anakin Skywalker, a slave boy who eventually becomes a Jedi Knight, and later, a hero in the Clone Wars. Palpatine manipulates Anakin into betraying the Jedi, and Anakin falls to the "dark side" of the mystical Force

Combined with his cybernetic body, which is capable of wielding up to five lightsabers at once (counting one held in one of his feet, the other being used to maintain balance) he makes a deadly foe in close combat to all but a master Jedi

Chewbacca Unleashed - Hasbro

Chewbacca, nicknamed Chewie, is a Wookiee character in the Star Wars franchise. The character's creation as a "gentle, hairy, non-English-speaking co-pilot" was inspired by George Lucas seeing his own Alaskan Malamute dog sitting up on the passenger seat of his car. The dog, Indiana, also inspired the name of the lead character in another series of Lucas films, Indiana Jones.
Chewbacca became Han Solo's first mate and constant companion when Han, then an Imperial Captain, was ordered to kill him because Chewbacca was a slave for the Empire. Han was decommissioned from the Imperial Navy, and later became a smuggler. Since he saved his life, Chewbacca owed a life debt to Han, meaning that he would serve Han for the rest of his life. According to Entertainment Weekly he is one of the "greatest sidekicks" in film history
The 1999 novel Vector Prime by R. A. Salvatore (the first in the New Jedi Order series) marks Chewbacca's last chronological appearance in the Star Wars universe. Chewbacca sacrifices his life to save Han's son Anakin from a collision between the planet Sernpidal and one of its moons. Lumpawaroo and Lowbacca offer to assume Chewbacca's life debt to Solo
