7672 Rogue Shadow was released in January 2008 as part of the Expanded Universe theme. The included minifigures are a battle-damaged Darth Vader (Battle Damage), his secret Apprentice Galen Marek, also known as Starkiller, and pilot Juno Eclipse. It is the first and to date only set to come from The Force Unleashed multimedia project.
Description[]
The set features the Rogue Shadow, the sleek black transport which is the primary vehicle for the protagonists in The Force Unleashed. The body of the ship has three hidden compartments. The left compartment features a fireable cannon which can be moved into position by a lever below the body, and fired by pulling back another lever. The back-right compartment houses two laser cannons which can also be deployed by pushing down a level. In addition to the hidden laser cannons, the Rogue Shadow is armed with four other cannons (two small, one medium and one large) all mounted at the front of the ship. By rotating the Rogue Shadow's wings, the ship can change between landing and flying positions, due to the wings also rotating the ship's engines. The cockpit has a capacity for one pilot, and there are four retractable legs which serve as landing gear.
The minifigures included in this set are Galen Marek who has torn clothing and a red lightsaber, a Darth Vader (Battle Damage) who also has a red lightsaber and is battle damaged from his fight with Galen Marek, and Juno Eclipse in Imperial uniform. Both Vader and Eclipse have two headpieces to choose from- Vader has his traditional mask, as well as a damaged mask, and Juno has either a standard black Imperial hat or blonde hair.
Background[]
The Rogue Shadow was constructed by Sienar Fleet Systems, and was based on the Sith Infiltrator used by Darth Maul, the Scimitar. It was shield and hyperdrive equipped, armed with laser cannons, but more impressively had the fastest sublight engines in the Imperial Fleet, and had an experimental cloaking device on board. The ship's last known pilot was Juno Eclipse, who piloted it around several places for Marek's missions, and eventually using it to rescue leading members of what became the Rebel Alliance and escape from the Death Star.
Notes[]
- This set came out before the name of Darth Vader's secret apprentice's (Galen Marek or Starkiller) name was revealed, so Marek was called "Darth Vader's Secret Apprentice" in this set.
