Comments:
Though not yet fully operational, the Death Star was already an imposing presence, dwarfing its Star Destroyer escort as it cruised through deep space during its final pre-operations check. Even as the final systems check progressed flawlessly, the Imperial officers in command of the battle station met in their first strategy session to plot the total destruction of the Rebel Alliance, and the continued domination of the Emperor.

Darth Vader:
Though he is not an official commander aboard the Death Star, Vader's commands as the personal envoy of the Emperor carry great weight, especially when he backs them up with the power of the dark side.
Darth Vader is a repack of the figure from 2000's POTJ Masters of the Dark Side multipack.

Admiral Motti:
Second of the triumvirate in command of the Death Star, Motti believes the power of the Death Star dwarfs all others in the universe. He learns the fallacy of this belief at the hand of Darth Vader, to his regret.

General Tagge:
The cautious and unambitious third in command of the Death Star, Tagge urges caution in dealing with the Rebellion. His recommendation is ignored, and he dies along with his fellow commnaders when the Death Star is destroyed.

Chief Bast:
Personal assistant to Grand Moff Tarkin aboard the Death Star, Bast shares tagge's opinion that the Rebellion is more powerful than many Imperials believe. He is one of very few Imperial officers to successfully evacuate from the Death Star before its destruction.

Points of Interest:
Bast, Cass, Tagge, & Yularen all use the same parts: the legs of Admiral Ozzel, and the skirt and arms from Moff Jerjerrod. In addition, all 4 figures have a new chest that is based on the Moff Jerjerrod figure, but the folds are more pronounced, and the rank cylinders are missing (although Tagge and Cass have them painted on.)
In addition, there are 2 pairs of new hands for two figures each. Yularen and Tagge have a left hand pointing & a right hand gripping (for the blaster). Bast and Cass have a right hand grasping & a left hand gripping (for the blaster.)
Finally, all 4 new Imperial Officers have their own unique head.
