Theme
Star Wars
Year Released
Released in 2015 within the set 75096 Sith Infiltrator. This era marked a shift toward high-detail printing and dual-sided heads for the Star Wars line.
Rarity
Uncommon to Rare. While not a limited convention exclusive, it appeared in only one mid-to-high price set that has been discontinued for several years, making it highly sought after by prequel-era collectors.
Head
Light flesh tone with dual-sided printing. One side features Sith yellow/red eyes and a grimace; the other side (alternative) typically features a determined expression. Includes the 'Anakin hair' mold in reddish brown.
Torso
Black Jedi robes with dark brown arms and light flesh hands. Printing details include a utility belt with silver and gold buckles, and subtle creasing in the fabric layers on both front and back.
Legs
Black legs with dark brown hip piece. Printing includes the continuation of the Jedi tabards/robes and belt details at the top of the legs.
Accessories
Commonly paired with a blue lightsaber (trans-light blue blade with silver hilt), though not shown in the image. This specific variant does not include separate armor or capes.
Color Scheme
Dominant black and dark brown (Sith/Jedi aesthetic) with light flesh skin and distinctive Sith-yellow eye accents.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head, torso, and legs. Alignment is typically precise; features very fine line work on the Sith eyes and mechanical-style belt details.
Variants
Several Anakin variants exist: sw0139 (ep3 classic), sw0419 (ep3 updated), and sw1093 (Mustafar duel). This version (sw0634) is unique for featuring both the Sith eyes and the specific episode 3 robe style without burn marks.
Condition Notes
Susceptible to 'silvering' or micro-scratches on the black plastic torso. Check for cracks in the heels and the torso-to-arm joints. The hair piece can show teeth marks or wear on the spikes.
Estimated Value
Between $35.00 - $55.00 USD for a used version in good condition; New/Mint condition can exceed $70.00 USD.
Price (New)
Originally part of set 75096 ($89.99 MSRP). The figure currently holds about 40-50% of the original total set value.
Compatible Sets
75096 Sith Infiltrator (2015). Even though the set is based on Episode I, this figure was included as a 'bonus' or Sith-themed inclusion alongside Darth Maul.
Character Background
Represents Anakin Skywalker after falling to the Dark Side under Darth Sidious, specifically during his assault on the Jedi Temple or just prior to his duel on Mustafar in Revenge of the Sith.
Design Notes
Notable for the transition of the Sith eyes which were previously only available on older, less-detailed head molds. The robe print refined the 'crease' lines for a more cinematic look compared to 2005 versions.
Similar Minifigures
Darth Vader (various), Darth Maul (sw0650), Anakin Skywalker (sw0419), and Emperor Palpatine (sw0631).
Collectibility
High. Prequel-era figures, especially those depicting Anakin's fall, have seen a massive surge in demand and value over the last 3 years. It is considered a staple for any Skywalker collection.
History
Follows a long lineage of Anakin figures starting in 1999. This 2015 version represents the 'Modern Era' standard before the most recent 2020 face-print updates.
Interesting Facts
Despite being an Episode III character, he was included in an Episode I Sith Infiltrator set to increase the set's appeal to collectors, as he is technically Maul's successor.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed alongside a 75269 Duel on Mustafar set or in a 1x1 brick display case. Use a blue LED or saber to highlight the Sith eye printing.
Modification Potential
Excellent for Mustafar MOCs. The head is frequently swapped onto damaged/burnt torsos or used for 'Youngling Slayer' custom scenes.
Overall Assessment
Quality Rating: 9/10. An essential variant for Star Wars fans. Recommendation: Buy now as prequel-era figure prices are trending upward. Standout feature is the chilling Sith eye printing.
