Rarity
Uncommon. While not a limited edition, this specific version with the pilot headset printing on a flesh-toned head is tied to specific sets from the 2012-2013 era.
Head
Light Flesh, dual-sided: one side with a determined expression, the other with a gold/black pilot headset and microphone. Features Anakin's signature scar over the right eye.
Torso
Dark brown and black Jedi robes with a reddish-brown belt. Features front and back printing detailing the tunic lines and utility belt buckles. Dark brown arms and black hands.
Legs
Black hips and legs with dark brown and silver printing to represent the continuation of the Jedi tunic and boots. Printing is limited to the front.
Accessories
Includes a chrome silver (flat silver) lightsaber hilt with a trans-green blade (Note: The image shows a green blade, though the character traditionally uses blue; this indicates a swap or a specific set variation).
Color Scheme
Primary colors are Black and Dark Brown. Accents include Light Flesh skin tones and metallic silver/gold print for the belt and headset.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head (dual-sided), torso (front/back), and legs (front). The lines are sharp, typical of the early 2010s 'modern' era of LEGO Star Wars.
Variants
This is a variant of the Clone Wars Anakin. Other versions include the 'Classic' 2008 version with large stylized eyes (sw0193) and the 'Revenge of the Sith' versions with longer hair and no headset.
Condition Notes
Check for silver-chrome flaking on the hilt. The headset print on the head is prone to rub-wear. Cracked heels and torso side-cracks are common in figures from this era if played with heavily.
Estimated Value
Used: $8 - $15 USD. New/Mint: $20 - $25 USD. Prices vary based on the condition of the pilot headset print.
Price (New)
N/A (Individual figure value). Originally appeared in sets ranging from the $34.99 Advent Calendar to the $89.99 Z-95 Headhunter.
Compatible Sets
9509 LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar (2012), 75004 Z-95 Headhunter (2013).
Character Background
Based on Anakin Skywalker's appearance in 'The Clone Wars' animated series, specifically his starfighter pilot gear used during various galactic battles.
Design Notes
This version bridged the gap between the 'big-eyed' Clone Wars style and the realistic movie style, using standard LEGO eyes with the animated series' outfit.
Similar Minifigures
sw0193 (Clone Wars Anakin), sw0488 (Anakin with Cape), sw0311 (Anakin with Dark Brown Hair).
Collectibility
Moderate. It is a staple character for Clone Wars collectors, specifically those looking for the version that fits the more realistic aesthetic of 2012+ figures.
History
Followed the initial 2008 Clone Wars line. This 2012 iteration updated the facial features to be more consistent with the rest of the LEGO Star Wars line.
Interesting Facts
The 'Pilot' head being included in the Advent calendar made it one of the most accessible ways to get a 'realistic' Clone Wars Anakin during its release year.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside a Delta-7B or Z-95 Headhunter starfighter. Looks best in a 'Jedi Council' or 'Hangars of the Resolute' vignette.
Modification Potential
Excellent. The head is a popular choice for custom 'Jedi Pilot' minifigures of other characters or for upgrading older Anakin figures.
Overall Assessment
A solid, high-detail representation of Anakin Skywalker. Stands out due to its dual-purpose head (Standard/Pilot) and remains a great value for collectors today.
