Rare. This character only appeared in a single set that had a relatively short production run before the line shifted to other waves.
Head
Unique mold/helmet piece in black with red eye prints and silver detailing; the face underneath is pale grey with red markings and a menacing yellow-eyed expression.

Accessories
Unique circular lightsaber hilt (black) with dual trans-red blades. The hilt is a specialized mold specific to the Inquisitors from this era.
Color Scheme
Dominantly Black with light grey/silver mechanical detailing and dark red accents, consistent with Empire/Sith aesthetics.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head, torso, and legs. The alignment of the silver 'armor' plates is highly detailed for the 2015 era.
Variants

Condition Notes
Common wear points include the silver printing on the toes and the rubbery texture of the helmet piece which can attract dust or suffer from 'tacky' aging if stored poorly.
