Theme
Star Wars
Year Released
2014. It debuted in set 75053 The Ghost, released as part of the first wave of LEGO sets based on the Star Wars Rebels animated series.
Rarity
Uncommon to Rare. While mass-produced for a retail set, it was exclusive to 'The Ghost' (75053) for several years and remains the only version featuring this specific animated-style printing.
Head
Lime green Twi'lek head with two lekku (head-tails) draped forward. The headpiece features integrated printed goggles and a tan/grey flight cap. The face has green eyes and a determined expression.
Torso
Dark brown and orange flight suit printing with a greyish-brown vest. Detailed printing includes flight straps, a life support box, and back printing showing the continuation of the pilot harness.
Legs
Orange legs with dark orange hip piece. Detailed printing includes leg straps, various pockets (greebles), and knee pad details in a greyish-brown color.
Accessories
Typically comes with a small black blaster pistol (not pictured in the main group). The lekku headpiece is a specialized rubberized mold.
Color Scheme
Primary colors are Lime Green (skin), Orange (jumpsuit), and Dark Brown/Dark Tan (vest). This mirrors the character's 'Star Wars Rebels' Season 1-4 appearance.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing. Notable for the detailed lines on the lekku and the precise alignment of the flight harness straps between the torso and leg pieces.
Variants
There are three main variants: sw0576 (Animated, Rebels), sw1282 (Live Action, Ahsoka series), and a Microfighter version (sw0824) with a slightly different facial expression.
Condition Notes
The lekku headpiece is made of a softer material; it is prone to dust accumulation and potential discoloration or 'tackiness' if exposed to heat/humidity. Check for torso cracks under the arms.
Estimated Value
Used: $35.00 - $50.00 USD; New (taken from sealed set): $55.00 - $70.00 USD. Prices fluctuate based on the popularity of the Ahsoka Disney+ series.
Price (New)
The Ghost (75053) originally retailed for $89.99 USD in 2014. The figure was not sold individually.
Compatible Sets
75053 The Ghost (2014). Note: Set 75127 (Microfighter) contains a different variant.
Character Background
Hera Syndulla is a Twi'lek pilot, captain of the Ghost, and a key leader in the early Rebellion. She is the daughter of Cham Syndulla and a main protagonist of Star Wars Rebels.
Design Notes
This figure is a great example of the 'big eyes' art style LEGO used for the Star Wars Rebels line to mimic the specific animation style of the show.
Similar Minifigures
Kanan Jarrus (sw0577), Sabine Wren (sw0594), Ezra Bridger (sw0574), and the New Republic version Hera Syndulla (sw1282).
Collectibility
High. As a core member of the Ghost crew and a character who transitioned to live-action, she is a staple for Star Wars collectors. The set she comes from is highly sought after.
History
Launched in 2014 alongside the Rebels series. This version was retired when The Ghost went out of production in late 2015/early 2016.
Interesting Facts
Early versions of the Ghost set did not include Hera on the front of the box, though she was inside. She is one of the few Twi'lek minifigures to have lekku draped over the shoulders rather than the back.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside the rest of the Ghost crew (Kanan, Ezra, Sabine, Zeb, and Chopper) on a custom stand or in front of the 75053 or 75357 Ghost models.
Modification Potential
The headpiece is compatible with other Twi'lek faces (like Aayla Secura) for MOC creators making custom starship pilots or Jedi.
Overall Assessment
A standout figure for any Star Wars fan. It captures the character's essence perfectly and has held its value remarkably well due to the character's ongoing relevance in Disney+ media.
