An elite security force assembled to protect members of the Galactic Senate, the Senate Guard were outfitted in outdated yet symbolic blue robes and helmets. The emotionless guards stood watch over the massive Senate rotunda on Coruscant, and its members could be found aboard almost all senatorial transports.
Under the rule of Chancellor Palpatine, the role of the Senate Guard was steadily marginalized. Palpatine installed his own elite guard, the red-robed Royal Guardsmen, for the protection of his office. With the spread of his clone forces that accompanied the transition from Republic to Empire, the Senate Guard was eventually phased out.
This 12 inch, 1:7 scale ARTFX Statue is limited to 1000 pieces worldwide. It is available now exclusively through StarWarsShop.com for $99.99 with an estimated ship date of August 2008.
