Star Wars C-3PO Electronic Head Replica Can Be Rewired To Reveal Sith Secrets

Another very unique Star Wars collectible is on the way from Disney / Lucasfilm, and like the Star Tours StarSpeeder 3000 Vehicle Playset, it will be available in a very limited edition run. The Galactic Archive Series C-3PO Premium Electronic Head will be available starting October 16th at 8am PT / 11am ET right here at The Disney Store complete with lights and sounds as well as a feature that will allow you to reveal Sith secrets like Babu Frik in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. 

Unfortunately, only 3,720 units will be produced priced at $119.99, and if the aforementioned Star Tours playset is anything to go by, there will be a queue at launch and they’ll sell out in the blink of an eye. That said, you’ll find a breakdown of the features below, which should make it clear why you really want to be one of the lucky fans who get to take this home. 

First, there’s a sensor that you can touch that will activate movie-accurate phrases and C-3PO’s yellow eyes. That sort of thing we’ve seen before. However, you can also remove his casing to reveal the gadgetry beneath (inspired by Star Wars: The Phantom Menace), which includes a wire that can be moved to activate glowing red eyes and forbidden Sith secrets.
