Star Wars fans know about Ralph McQuarrie's importance...especially to the original trilogy. He was the concept artist that is credited with bringing many of the characters and worlds you see in the films. It's interesting seeing his original concept drawings and comparing those with the final character likenesses.
Dark Horse, the US distributor of Kotobukiya, will be releasing the 2 piece soft vinyl model kit set in July of this year. The set is McQuarrie's original concept of what Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker would look like in their famous lightsaber duel. The figure is 11" in height, 16.5" long and should run around $200.
