HASBRO TOY NEWS: NEW RANCOR AND RIDER FIGURES!



Unleash the Force with Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Battle Rancor with Felucian Rider and Saddle



A disturbance in the Force has once again taken shape with the emergence of a new twist on the legendary struggle between the dark side and the light side. With the upcoming release of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed video game, you become Darth Vader�s Secret Apprentice, stealthily traveling the galaxy on a mission handed down by Darth Vader himself.

The new Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Battle Rancor with Felucian Rider introduces the Felucians, native inhabitants of the jungle planet Felucia. These Force-sensitive warriors have learned to tame deadly rancors and ride them into battle. This fearsome figure and creature combo is accurate to the videogame and includes a hidden code to be used in the game. The decision to carry out the Dark Lord�s will may be a difficult on in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, but collecting the Rancor with rider is not!





Battle Rancor with Felucian Rider and Saddle

The Force-sensitive Felucians patrol their jungle homeworld astride ferocious rancors that are marked with luminous warpaint. Together, a Felucian warrior and his rancor mount pose a formidable threat to even the most skilled Sith warrior. Felucia is heavily forested with fungal life forms and immense primitive plants that can be dangerous when disturbed. As one of the planets caught in the Clone Wars, Felucia becomes a battleground between opposing sides, pulling the native Felucians into the midst of the conflict.

Rancors are savage creatures that have been domesticated by the Felucians and other species in the galaxy. Only those who are attuned to the Force can successfully tame these menacing monsters. Even when tamed, a rancor can be unpredictable and must be treated with caution and respect.

The new Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Battle Rancor with Felucian rider and saddle will bring a new level to the intricate story that keeps unfolding to reveal the power that exists within the dark side of the Force. Climb on board a savage rancor, strap yourself in and be prepared for an action packed ride available at Target.

May the Force be with you and stay tuned for more information from Hasbro!
