Equipped with hyperdrives, Lambda shuttles arecapable of transporting passengers or material between different fleets and star systems.

2000 Power of the Jedi 12 inch Sith Lords Darth Vader and Darth Maul
Posted by Brian in Power of the Jedi on 2010/05/10
Description: Within the darkest shadows of the galaxy exists the Sith, a sinister order devoted to the dark side of the Force and led by the fearsome Dark Lords of the Sith. Of these dreaded figures, none are more notorious or more dangerous than Darth Maul and Darth Vader. Both masters of the dark side share a legacy of servitude under the most powerful force of evil the galaxy has ever known. Darth Maul, a master of hand-to-hand combat, was a lethal warrior and a key figure in the Sith’s rise to power, while Darth Vader hunted down and exterminated nearly all the Jedi Knights – an act that made way for the Empire’s galactic reign of terror. Each was finally defeated by their own slavery to the dark side of the Force.
