The 2018 Star Wars The Black Series 4‑LOM (#67) brings one of the most distinctive bounty hunters from The Empire Strikes Back into the modern 6‑inch line with a sculpt that blends insectoid alien biology and protocol‑droid engineering. Seen briefly but memorably aboard Darth Vader’s Executor, 4‑LOM stands among the galaxy’s most dangerous hunters — a cold, calculating machine guided by the instincts of a Gand.
Released as part of Wave 18, this figure completes the classic ESB bounty hunter lineup when paired with Zuckuss, Boba Fett, Bossk, IG‑88, and Dengar. The sculpt is a standout of the Red Line era, combining a fully tooled protocol‑droid body with a highly detailed insectoid head featuring compound eyes, mandibles, and layered plating. The result is a figure that feels both familiar and alien — a perfect representation of 4‑LOM’s hybrid identity.
The metallic body features layered panel lines, pistons, and wiring, while the head sculpt delivers the organic complexity of a Gand. The included blaster rifle matches his ESB appearance and completes the bounty hunter silhouette.
