Affiliate Link – Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire Princess Leia In Boushh Disguise
I’m already starting to jot down rough notes for a Shadows of the Empire book. Why? Well, if my Universe Expanded book closes successfully then I think I’ll tackle a Shadows of the Empire book later. And part of such a book would have to be this Princess Leia In Boushh Disguise* action figure that Kenner released almost twenty years ago. I’m not the only one interested in a Shadows of the Empire book, right?

I love the Shadows of the Empire book! It really filled in some major holes in the Original Trilogy story line. What I was disappointed in was the sculpt of some of the action figure, mostly that godawful Chewie bounty hunter, as well as the teeny, weeny Outrider ship. I’d totally read a book that covered the whole event, which I feel was really unique for its time. As an aside, I actually have that Leia Boushh in a Star Case on my wall as a packaging example for this sub-line. I still think the sculpt holds up quite well.
Do it! I would love to see this book happen 😀
The SW: SotE Bountyhunter Leia was one of my favorite POTF era figures of the time. Oddly enough, it was a combination of the cool design of Boushh, a removable helmet, and her arm sculpt working well as an “uppercut”, given the limited articulation. 🙂
