Just got myself a brand new 2nd hand Star Wars 30th Anniversary Sith Infiltrator. Just found out from Wookieepedia that it is also called the Scimitar :)
According to Wookieepedia, "The Scimitar (or Sith Infiltrator) was a prototype stealth-ship used as the personal starship of Darth Maul, the Sith apprentice of Darth Sidious"
The ship first made its appearance at Eps.1: The Phantom Menace. Darth Maul flies the Sith Infiltrator to the planet Tatooine during his quest to find Queen Amidala. To kill her, of course :p
According to Jedi Master Saesee Tiin, "That ship is alive with the dark side, Master Yoda. I can feel it clinging to my robes. And worse, it still tempts me, calling me back with promises of fantastic journeys to the far reaches of the galaxy."
Built beneath the cloak field generator was a series of compartments containing various equipment for Darth Maul's missions including three DRK-1 Dark Eye probe droids, his speeder bike Bloodfin, several interrogation and security droids, spying equipment, torture devices, bombs and mines. Fortunately, the scaled-down collectible is less scarier than this.
Instead, you'll get equally exciting accessories like these upon purchase:
- Spring open wings (to be adapted by the legendary TIEs in a much later time)
- Opening cockpit
- Hidden weapons (spread open the "hood" and you'll get what i mean)
- Firing missiles
- Firing probe droids
Btw as an added bonus, i got a Hasbro Star Wars 30th Anniversary Darth Maul with collector coin, still mint on carton as part of the package. Aaah.. the beauty of buying mint condition 2nd hand goods :)
That's it from me for now, keep on collecting until then :)
Regards,
Donny a.k.a Master DJ Yoda
