Revision as of 12:51, 17 June 2011

Emperor Palpatine is the feared master of the merciless Darth Vader and a follower of the Dark Side of the Force, being a Sith Master. Much hate rages inside him, which only makes him stronger... perhaps even more than the Jedi.
Fiction
Star Wars Transformers
Palpatine rebuilt Darth Vader's body and twisted his mind to the ways of the Sith. As part of this process, the Emperor somehow used the Force to transform into an Imperial Shuttle to transport Darth Vader to the Outer Rim.[1] Once Vader's training as a Sith was complete, he set out into space to crush anyone opposing the Emperor's will.[2]
Later, Darth Vader was on a mission to crush the Rebels and bring young Luke Skywalker before the Emperor.[3] At some point, Emperor Palpatine learnt of a secret gathering of Rebels, and decided to deal with it personally using his Imperial Shuttle mech, now colored black.[4]

- Emperor Palpatine/Imperial Shuttle (2007)

The shuttle's tail fin can be fitted on his arm as a shield, while Palpatine's red lightsaber can be either held on its own or fired from a missile launcher that can be used as a gun in robot mode. His wings detach from his shoulders and reattach on his waist to emulate the character's cloak.

As a result, it saw incredibly poor distribution.
