Chancellor Palpatine Minifigure sw0540 – Dark Gray Outfit

Represent the final days of the Galactic Republic with LEGO® Star Wars Chancellor Palpatine (sw0540), a 2014 minifigure inspired by Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith. This version features a Dark Bluish Gray senatorial outfit with Silver robe patterns, White combed hair and a dual-sided face that captures both Palpatine's controlled public appearance and his sinister personality.

Palpatine's Light Nougat head has two expressions: a stern face with Dark Tan eyebrows and wrinkles, and a menacing grin with bared teeth. His White hair is neatly combed from front to back, while the Dark Bluish Gray torso and legs display coordinated Silver detailing across his formal robes. Matching Dark Bluish Gray arms and Light Nougat hands complete the design.

From LEGO® Star Wars Droid Tri-Fighter

This Chancellor Palpatine variation appeared in 75044-1 – Droid Tri-Fighter, released in 2014. The set depicts a Separatist spacecraft from the Battle of Coruscant and features Palpatine alongside Battle Droid characters.

As Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic, Palpatine conceals his identity as Darth Sidious while orchestrating the events that lead to the rise of the Galactic Empire. The figure's contrasting facial expressions and formal clothing reflect his dual role during the final chapter of the prequel trilogy.
