Year Released
2019 - Debuted alongside the release of Star Wars: Episode IX in sets like 75256 Kylo Ren's Shuttle and 75266 Sith Troopers Battle Pack.
Rarity
Common - This figure was mass-produced across several sets, including a low-cost battle pack, making it very easy for collectors to obtain in multiples.
Head
Standard red Sith Trooper helmet with black narrow visor and fine textured ridge printing. The head underneath is a plain black 'head-placeholder' or a standard Clone Trooper-style face depending on the specific set batch.
Torso
Red torso with intricate black and dark red geometric Sith Trooper armor printing. Includes thermal detonator detailing on the back and black hands.
Legs
Red legs with matching Sith Trooper armor printing on the front and hips. Features the distinct vertical line textures seen in the film's armor design.
Accessories
Usually equipped with a black blaster rifle or a stud shooter. The figure in the image is missing its weapon.
Color Scheme
Monochromatic bright red with black and darker red accent printing. This bold color scheme distinguishes Sith Eternal forces from standard First Order troops.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing with high DPI. The detail is exceptionally dense, featuring many thin lines to simulate the 'ribbed' texture of the on-screen armor. Printing covers the head, torso (front and back), and legs (front).
Variants
None for this specific ID. However, a 'Sith Jet Trooper' (sw1075) exists with a different helmet mold and built-in jetpack printing.
Condition Notes
Prone to 'torso cracking' under the arms if the arms are moved frequently. Red plastic hides scratches well, but black visor printing on the helmet can rub off if stored loosely with other bricks.
Estimated Value
Used: $3.00 - $5.00 USD; New: $6.00 - $8.00 USD. Value is kept low due to high supply from the 75266 Battle Pack.
Price (New)
Originally available in a $14.99 Battle Pack (containing 2 of this figure) and a $129.99 Shuttle set.
Compatible Sets
75256 Kylo Ren's Shuttle, 75266 Sith Troopers Battle Pack, 75279 Star Wars Advent Calendar (2020).
Character Background
Elite soldiers of the Sith Eternal army, these troopers were raised on Exegol and served the resurrected Emperor Palpatine during the final battle of the sequel trilogy.
Design Notes
Uses the newer 2019 Stormtrooper helmet mold style but in red. The printing is much more complex than the standard First Order Stormtrooper to reflect the ancient Sith aesthetic.
Similar Minifigures
First Order Stormtrooper (sw0667), Sith Jet Trooper (sw1075), Major Vonreg (sw1033).
Collectibility
Moderate. While common, they are popular for 'army building' (buying dozens to create a military display), which keeps demand steady.
History
Introduced as a teaser before the movie release. It represented a return to the 'red trooper' concept first seen with the Royal Guards and later the Praetorian Guards.
Interesting Facts
The Aurebesh-style markings on the armor are meant to look like ancient Sith script. Despite their striking look, they had very limited screen time in the final film.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in large ranks/formation. Looks excellent when paired with 75256 or alongside a Palpatine/Darth Sidious minifigure.
Modification Potential
Excellent for custom red-themed Star Wars MOCs. The legs and torso are popular for creating custom 'Crimson Dawn' or red Mandalorian warriors.
Overall Assessment
A visually striking and highly detailed figure that is essential for Sequel Trilogy fans. Its high detail-to-price ratio makes it a standout 'grunt' trooper in the LEGO Star Wars lineup.
