Iron Studios just dropped their latest solicitation information and this drop includes two brand new Star Wars statues. Cad Bane will receive the 1/10 scale treatment, while Darth Maul will be getting a 1/4 scale statue. Check out all the details below!
Cad Bane – The Book of Boba Fett – Art Scale 1/10
Walking on the scorching sands of the barren desert from planet Tatooine, at the gates of the city of Freetown, just like an American Old West gunslinger, a sinister and slender figure with cruel red eyes under his characteristic wide-brimmed fedora, wearing a brown overcoat, positions his skillful and fast hands, ready to draw his twin blaster pistols LL-30 from his belt holster, challenging the local sheriff Cobb Vanth for a duel. In the month of May, commemorating the Star Wars saga, Iron Studios proudly present their statue “Cad Bane – The Book of Boba Fett – Art Scale 1/10”, with the relentless mercenary and bounty hunter inspired by the iconic scene from the sixth episode of the series from the Disney+ streaming service “The Book of Boba Fett”, series derivative from “The Mandalorian” from the universe of Star Wars, where the character made its live-action premiere.
Native from the planet Duro, Cad Bane appeared for the first time in the Star Wars animated series from 2008: The Clone Wars, created by George Lucas, Dave Filoni, and Henry Gilroy, he’s a relentless bounty hunter employed by Empire villains and criminal organizations. Expert in the use of weapons and devices designed for fighting Jedis, after the death of Jango Fett he was considered the best and most experienced of his time. Although considered infamous, Bane had high respect both in the underworld and among other bounty hunters, working with Aurra Sing and dueling some of the most skillful Jedi, including Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. Mostly featured in Star Wars comics and video games, and appearing in the animated series from 2021 “Star Wars: The Bad Batch”, he got his live-action version in “Chapter 6: From the Desert Comes a Stranger” from “The Book of Boba Fett”, where he was hired by the crime empire Pyke Syndicate to help them control the smuggling and trade of spices in Tatooine. Inspired by the gunslinger played by the actor Lee Van Cleef in the movie “The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly”, the character became one of the most popular and favorite bounty hunters for fans next to others like Boba Fett and Jango Fett.
The first Iron Studios statue derivative from “The Book of Boba Fett”, Cad Bane was presented on the show Inside Iron Studios Day on YouTube, and is already available for Pre-Order, on the same day of the Obi-Wan Kenobi series’ premiere on Disney+. Also, check out the statue “Darth Maul – Star Wars – Legacy Replica 1/4”, another great villain from Star Wars and rival of Obi-Wan, and other news by Iron Studios inspired by the legendary character from a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.

Darth Maul – Star Wars – Legacy Replica 1/4
Sent by his master Darth Sidious to the barren planet Tatooine with the mission of eliminating Queen Amidala and the two Jedi Knights, protectors of the ruler from planet Naboo, the mortal and agile Sith Lord with yellow eyes and red tattooed face under a crown of horns, wielding his double-bladed Lightsaber and wearing his dark cloak fluttering on the desert winds, gets ready to face one of his targets, after getting the location of his target’s whereabouts from his Probe Droid next to him. In the month of May, commemorating the Star Wars saga, Iron Studios proudly present their statue “Darth Maul – Star Wars – Legacy Replica 1/4”, with his most iconic look just like on his unforgettable premiere in the movies in “Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace”, one of the most beloved Star Wars villains for the first time in this scale by Iron Studios, fiercely and intriguingly represented as the greatest Zabrak warrior from Dathomir.
Native from the planet Dathomir, Maul was welcomed by the Dark Lord Darth Sidious as his Sith apprentice. A very acrobatic warrior, trained to be relentless against his enemies, he learned to use a double-bladed lightsaber and became thirsty for revenge against the Jedi Order. Released by his Master around Tatooine, he sent his Probe Droids to search for the Jedi and Queen Amidala’s ship, and after locating the ship on the Dune Sea, Maul ambushed and faced a Jedi Master for the first time in a duel against Qui-Gon Jinn, but wasn’t able to achieve his goal. Later, Maul waited for Amidala in Naboo, where he once again dueled Qui-Gon, this time winning against the Jedi Master, but then while facing the young apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi, Maul was defeated having his body cut in half and falling to the planet’s core, apparently dead. Thanks to his great popularity among fans, Darth Maul survived focusing on his hate for Obi-Wan, and after being found and rescued by his brother Savage Opress, Maul resurfaced and recovered on his home planet. After getting involved in other conflicts, participating in big battles, and in the rise of the Galactic Empire, Maul started to command the Crimson Dawn, a criminal organization.
Praised by Star Wars fans all around the world, Darth Maul got a new chance, being brought back from certain death, and gained even more prominence in the saga’s canon of a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. His 1/4 statue in the Legacy Replica line joins the series of statues that have the release of other iconic characters like “Darth Vader Ep V, Kylo Ren EP VII, Master Yoda”, and more recently “The Mandalorian and The Child” and “Grogu” derivative of the Star Wars spin-off series on Disney+ The Mandalorian. Presented on the monthly show Inside Iron Studios Day on YouTube, on the same day of the Obi-Wan Kenobi series’ premiere on Disney+ and already available for Pre-Order, check out also the statue “Cad Bane – The Book of Boba Fett – Art Scale 1/10”, another great villain from Star Wars and rival of Obi-Wan just like Darth Maul.
