Star Wars
Year Released
Released in 2015 within the set 75092 Naboo Starfighter. This period saw a shift toward more detailed torso and leg printing to match CGI source material more closely.
Rarity
Uncommon. While not ultra-rare, this specific variant with the printed headset and hood was limited to only one retail set, making it harder to find than standard Jedi variants.
Head
Light Flesh with reddish brown beard, orange eyebrows, and a small black headset microphone printed on the left side. It features a dual-sided print with a calm and a determined expression.
Torso
Reddish brown robe over a tan tunic with a dark brown belt. Printing includes detailed crease lines and a metallic silver belt buckle. Arms are reddish brown with light flesh hands.
Legs
Reddish brown hips and legs with tan tunic extensions printed on the front, continuing the look of the Jedi robes down to the knees.
Accessories
Includes a reddish brown Jedi hood piece. Note: The blue lightsaber typically included with this set is missing in the image.
Color Scheme
Primary: Reddish Brown and Tan. Accents: Light Flesh, Silver, and Black. This organic palette is iconic to the Jedi Order of the Prequel trilogy.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head, torso, and legs. Alignment is precise, particularly where the tunic design transitions from the torso to the hips and legs.
Variants
This is the specific 2015 variant with a headset. Other versions of Episode 1 Obi-Wan (sw0174, sw0481) lack the headset printing or have different hair/hood configurations.
Condition Notes
Frequent points of wear include the neck joint (cracking), torso side cracks, and silver paint rubbing off the belt buckle. The hood piece can show scuffing if stored in loose bins.
Estimated Value
Used: $12 - $18 USD. New/Mint: $25 - $35 USD. Price varies significantly based on whether the hairpiece (often used as an alternate for the hood) and lightsaber are included.
Price (New)
Set 75092 (Naboo Starfighter) originally retailed for approximately $49.99 in 2015, which included 7 minifigures.
Compatible Sets
75092Nab Naboo Starfighter (2015).
Character Background
Representing the young Padawan learner from Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, specifically during the space battle at Naboo where he monitors communications via his headset.
Design Notes
This figure demonstrates LEGO's attention to film-specific details, such as the commlink/headset, which allows for more accurate role-play of the film's climax compared to generic Jedi.
Similar Minifigures
sw0174 (Early Obi-Wan), sw0481 (2013 variant), and sw0511 (A-Wing Pilot Obi-Wan).
Collectibility
Highly collectible for Star Wars completionists due to the unique headset printing. It is a stable investment given the popularity of the Naboo Starfighter set.
History
First released in 2015. This was the first time an Episode I Obi-Wan included a printed headset, marking a milestone in minifigure accuracy for that specific film scene.
Interesting Facts
Despite the headset suggesting he is in a cockpit, this figure is often sought after to recreate his battle with Darth Maul, even though he didn't wear the headset during the duel.
Display Suggestions
Ideal for placement inside or next to a Naboo Starfighter MOC or set. Display alongside Qui-Gon Jinn for the full Master/Apprentice dynamic.
Modification Potential
The head is popular for 'Modern' Star Wars MOCs involving pilots or tactical commanders because of the printed microphone detail.
Overall Assessment
An excellent, screen-accurate minifigure that represents the peak of LEGO's 2015 printing standards. Highly recommended for fans of the Prequel Trilogy.
