Year Released
2017: Released alongside the theatrical debut of 'The Last Jedi'.
Rarity
Uncommon: Only appeared in two sets during the 2017–2018 production cycle.
Head
Light Flesh, dual-sided: one side with a determined scowl, the other with an angry bared-teeth expression. Features a prominent vertical red scar over the right eye. Hair is a mid-length black wavy mold.
Torso
Black with detailed silver/gray printing representing quilted tunic texture and a utility belt. Back printing continues the tunic quilted pattern. Arms and hands are solid black.
Legs
Black legs with gray printing that continues the lower portion of the quilted tunic and belt line down to the hips and upper thigh area.
Accessories
Standard black fabric cape (spongy or stiff variant). Typically includes a unique Kylo Ren lightsaber with a red crossguard (not pictured in hand, but part of standard kit).
Color Scheme
Monochromatic: Black and dark gray dominate, with light flesh for the head and red for the iconic scar detail.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing with fine silvery-gray lines to simulate the 'Last Jedi' outfit texture. Precision alignment on the scar across the eye is a hallmark of this figure.
Variants
This specific variant (sw0885) features the scar from Episode 8. It differs from the Episode 7 version (sw0664) which has no scar and a different helmet/mask piece.
Condition Notes
Check for fraying on the fabric cape edges. The black plastic shows scratches and 'scuffing' more easily than lighter colors. Check for neck cracks in the torso.
Estimated Value
New: $15 - $22; Used: $8 - $14. Values increase if the original crossguard lightsaber is included.
Price (New)
Originally available in sets priced at $79.99 (75179) and $159.99 (75189).
Compatible Sets
75179 Kylo Ren's TIE Fighter (2017) and 75189 First Order Heavy Assault Walker (2017).
Character Background
The son of Han Solo and Leia Organa, Kylo Ren (Ben Solo) is a leader of the First Order. This version represents him after his injury at the end of 'The Force Awakens'.
Design Notes
First version to accurately place the scar over the eye following Rian Johnson's design change for Episode 8 (moving it slightly from its position at the end of Episode 7).
Similar Minifigures
sw1057 (Kylo Ren with Reforged Helmet), sw0664 (Original Kylo Ren), sw0712 (Unmasked Kylo Ren).
Collectibility
Moderate to High: As a primary antagonist of the sequel trilogy, he remains a staple for Star Wars collectors, though he is currently overshadowed by 'Reforged' versions.
History
Represents the middle stage of Kylo Ren's design evolution between the masked 'Force Awakens' look and the cracked 'Reforged' mask look of 'Rise of Skywalker'.
Interesting Facts
This specific head print was controversial upon release among fans because the scar placement differs from the very end of the previous movie, mirroring a real-life creative decision by the film's director.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside a First Order Stormtrooper or in front of a TIE Silencer build. Use a transparent red 1x1 round plate as a base for a lightsaber effect.
Modification Potential
Excellent for Sith MOCs. The head is commonly used for custom 'Anakin Skywalker' figures or other scarred warriors due to the detail of the print.
Overall Assessment
A solid, movie-accurate representation of the character. Its standout feature is the torso detailing which is superior to many other sequel-era figures. A must-have for sequel trilogy completionists.
