Character Background
Taun We was an administrative aide on Kamino who greeted Obi-Wan Kenobi and introduced him to the Clone Army in Star Wars: Episode II.
Design Notes
First usage of a specialized elongated neck mold since the original 2002 era did not produce a Kaminoan figure (they were omitted for years due to scale challenges).
Similar Minifigures
Lama Su (if/when released), other alien administrators like Admiral Ackbar or Tion Medon.
Collectibility
High for Prequel-era fans; being the only figure of this species/character makes it a mandatory piece for a complete Star Wars collection.
History
Fans waited 20 years for a Kaminoan minifigure; the 20th Anniversary of Attack of the Clones finally prompted its production.
Interesting Facts
The figure stands significantly taller than a standard minifigure due to the 2x2x2 slope and the elongated neck mold.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside sw1214 (Obi-Wan Kenobi) and sw1216 (R4-P17) in a rainy Kamino landing platform MOC.
Modification Potential
The head piece is highly sought after by MOC builders for creating custom Kaminoan Jedi or other members of the species.
Overall Assessment
An excellent, long-overdue addition to the Star Wars lineup. High quality molding and accurate representation of the CGI model from the film.
