The Sideshow Collectibles line of Star Wars 1/6 scale figures is one of the most dedicated and consistent in all of toys. They continue to release impressive figures and dive deeper into the Star Wars universe, but none of the figures thus far have touched the splendor of this reveal.

General Grievous is being produced as a 16-inch behemoth of a figure that will totally and irrevocably improve any 1/6 scale Star Wars display. He's giant, he's awesome, he's one of the few characters to appreciate from the prequels, and at only $250 he's actually not too expensive for his size and quality. You can read all the details and see the photos straight from Sideshow Collectibles below.

With the Galactic Republic in shambles, a powerful new Confederacy of Independent Systems forms a droid army of incomprehensible size. General Grievous, a brilliant military strategist and remorseless killer, leads the Armies of the Confederacy, waging a deadly war for control of the galaxy.

Engineered with meticulous attention to detail, the fully articulated body can achieve countless poses, recreating vivid scenes of battle and victory. Fully equipped with detailed weapons and accessories including switch-out fused and split arms, four lightsabers, electro staff, and a hand-tailored fabric cape, the General Grievous Sixth Scale figure is an essential addition for any Star Wars collector

This bad boy is going to tower over standard 12-inch figures, and he's going to look pretty incredible doing it. The figure seems very accurate to the film appearance and 16 inches is a good size to keep him in line with other figure heights. I think the thin lightsabers are going to lose a little "wow" factor without the on-screen glow, but Grievous is still plenty intimidating enough without them.

This might be one of the coolest Star Wars collectibles of the upcoming year, and at $250 for such a giant and well-detailed 1/6 scale figure, he's actually relatively cheap. You can pre-order General Greivous at Sideshow Collectibles, or keep an eye out for him on the DASH Marketplace.
