To commemorate the Blu-Ray release of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, S.H. Figuarts is offering an awesome package.
Collectors will be able to kill two birds with one stone with this new offering, including a steel book edition of the movie and the Death Trooper figure among other items.
The Death Trooper figure originally released in December of last year, but this version includes a few updates including more a long-range blaster and a grenade belt.
Other added details include shoulder guard, chest protector, and scope accessory for the helmet.
The Figuarts line are among the best in the business, offering multiple points of articulation with stable joints that make dynamic, life-like poses possible.
While collectors might already have a Death Trooper figure posing on their shelves, this special edition offers a more robust variant alongside new accessories.
Plus it comes with a pretty kick-ass movie, as well, and eight mini-posters featuring the rag-tag team of Rebels in the film.
The Rogue One/Star Wars Story MovieNEX Premium Box is scheduled to be released on April 28, retailing for 14,040¥ ($125). No word on when it will be coming stateside, but fans can order it now from Disney Japan.

Directed by Gareth Edwards, it's the first of the new standalone features from Lucasfilm and Disney, which take place outside the core "Skywalker Saga" of films noted by an Episode number. Rogue One tells the story of the small band of rebels that were tasked with stealing the plans to the first Death Star. The story spins directly off the opening crawl from the original Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope. In that crawl, it read: "Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base, have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire. During the battle, Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the Empire's ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR, an armored space station with enough power to destroy an entire planet."
