Theme

Year Released
2015
Rarity
Common to Uncommon. While it only appeared in two sets originally, it was part of the highly popular initial wave of TFA sets and is widely available on the secondary market.
Head
Light flesh tone with a dual-sided expression (determined and smirk/yelling). Features a brown beard and eyebrows. The headgear is a specific dark brown hairpiece with integrated olive green pilot headset (molded part 21712).
Torso
Dark orange torso with Resistance X-Wing pilot suit printing. Details include white life support vest, control box, silver tubing, and brown webbing. Arms are dark orange and hands are black (though the image provided shows olive/tan hands, suggesting a part swap).
Legs
Dark orange legs with hip and leg printing that continues the flight suit details, including gray straps and various pockets and equipment pouches in dark tan/gray.
Accessories
Typically comes with a small black blaster pistol and a Poe Dameron-specific X-Wing pilot helmet (molded in black with Resistance logos and a translucent yellow visor).
Color Scheme
Primary Dark Orange with accents of white, silver, grey, and black. This distinguishes Resistance pilots from the classic Rebel Alliance Bright Orange pilots.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on torso (front and back) and legs (front). The level of detail in the life support vest and the texture of the hair/headset mold is exceptional for the 2015 era.
Variants
Variants include Poe in civilian clothes (sw0677), Poe with a standard pilot helmet without headset hair (sw0925), and later versions from The Last Jedi and Rise of Skywalker with updated outfits.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include the silver printing on the life support vest which can scratch. This specific figure in the photo appears to have the wrong hand color (should be black to represent gloves).
Estimated Value
Used: $5.00 - $8.00 USD. New: $12.00 - $15.00 USD. Value is heavily influenced by the presence of the unique headset hairpiece and pilot helmet.
Price (New)
Included in sets ranging from $10.00 (microfighter) to $80.00 (X-Wing). Was never sold as an individual polybag or CMF.
Compatible Sets

Character Background
Poe Dameron is a commander in the Resistance's Starfighter Corps and one of Leia Organa's most-trusted operatives. He debuted in the Star Wars sequel trilogy as a lead protagonist and ace pilot.
Design Notes
The introduction of the molded hair-with-headset piece was a significant technological step for LEGO Star Wars, allowing pilots to look 'movie-accurate' even when their helmets were removed.
Similar Minifigures
Snap Wexley (sw0705), Resistance X-Wing Pilot (sw0659), and Tallissan 'Tallie' Lintra (sw0882).
Collectibility
Moderate. It is an essential figure for fans of the Sequel Trilogy, but because Poe was included in so many sets, it does not command high investment prices.
History
This was the very first Poe Dameron minifigure ever produced, released to coincide with the premiere of Episode VII: The Force Awakens.
Interesting Facts
The headset hairpiece has since been reused for other pilot characters, but it was originally designed specifically to capture Oscar Isaac's likeness in the film.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed next to a black and orange T-70 X-Wing fighter or alongside Finn and Rey minifigures to complete the 'new trio' of the sequel era.
Modification Potential
Excellent for Resistance MOCs. The torso and legs are versatile for any generic Resistance pilot. The headset hair is a favorite for custom modern military minifigures.
Overall Assessment
A solid, era-defining minifigure. While the hands on this specific unit are incorrect, the printing and unique headgear make it a standout representation of a lead character.
