Year Released
Released in 2016 as part of set 75156 (Captain Rex's AT-TE). This era was marked by the expansion of the Rebels animated series into the LEGO Star Wars lineup.
Rarity
Uncommon to Rare. He only appeared in a single, high-price set that has been retired for several years, making him a targeted figure for Rebels collectors.
Head
Light Flesh head with dark gray/black facial markings and printed eyes. It is covered by a unique, molded dark gray helmet/headgear piece featuring red markings and the Imperial Inquisitorius emblem.

Legs
Black legs with gunmetal gray hips. No specific leg printing is present, focusing the detail on the torso and armor assembly.
Accessories
Unique circular Inquisitor lightsaber hilt in flat silver, which holds two blades. The image shows him holding a red blade and an incorrect blue blade (custom/user addition).
Color Scheme
Dark gray and black primary tones with silver and red accents, reflecting the dark and militaristic aesthetic of the Galactic Empire.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso and head. The most notable detail is the precise printing on the helmet piece, which aligns with the central crest of the mold.
Variants
This is the primary (and only) version of the Fifth Brother based on his appearance in the 'Rebels' series. A different version exists for the 'Obi-Wan Kenobi' series (sw1215).
Condition Notes
The helmet and torso armor (pauldron) can show surface scratches over time. Check for silver paint wear on the lightsaber hilt and cracking on the black torso sides.
Estimated Value
Current market value is approximately $65 - $80 USD for used condition and $90+ USD for new/mint condition.
Price (New)

Character Background
The Fifth Brother was a member of the Inquisitorius, a group of Force-sensitive dark side users tasked by the Empire to hunt down surviving Jedi after Order 66. He debuted in the Star Wars Rebels animated series.
Design Notes
Uses a unique shoulder armor/pauldron element that fits over the torso neck. The lightsaber hilt was specifically molded to accommodate the Inquisitor dual-blade style.

Collectibility
High. LEGO fans of the Rebels TV show find him essential to completing the Inquisitor set, and his single-set appearance ensures stable value appreciation.
History
First and only release of this character design. He represents the transition from the Prequel era to the Galactic Civil War era as seen through the lens of Disney-era animation.
Interesting Facts
The circular lightsaber hilt was a new mold introduced specifically for the Rebels Inquisitors to mimic their spinning saber mechanics from the show.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside other Inquisitors or Captain Rex to recreate scenes from the Rebels season 2 episode 'Always Two There Are'.
Modification Potential
Commonly seen with custom cloth capes to match his on-screen silhouette. The blue blade in the image is a user modification; he should technically have two red blades.
Overall Assessment
An excellent collector's piece with unique molding and high thematic accuracy. Essential for fans of the Star Wars Rebels series and Dark Side collectors.
