Year Released

Rarity
Uncommon but highly sought-after. It was exclusive to a single set (75019 AT-TE) which has been retired for over a decade.
Head
Unique Vurk species molded head in Sand Blue with dark grey printed eyes and skin texture. Features a high, sweeping crest characteristic of the Vurk species from the planet Sembla.
Torso
Tan Jedi Robes with dark tan and brown accent printing. Features a standard V-neck cross-over pattern with a belt on the front; reverse printing features the back of the Jedi tunic and belt.
Legs
Reddish Brown unprinted standard legs with a Reddish Brown hip joint.
Accessories
Includes one standard metallic silver (flat silver) lightsaber hilt and one translucent neon green lightsaber blade.
Color Scheme
A mix of Sand Blue (head), Tan (torso), and Reddish Brown (legs). This muted, earthy palette is typical for Jedi characters of the Prequel Era.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso (front and back). The head mold uses a specific plastic color (Sand Blue) with minimal but precise eye printing. No printing on the arms or legs.
Variants
None. This is the only version of Coleman Trebor LEGO has ever produced.
Condition Notes
The Sand Blue head piece is prone to 'torso cracking' if removed and replaced frequently due to the friction of the neck peg. The lightsaber blade is prone to air bubbles or 'clouding' over time.
Estimated Value
Current market value ranges from $45 to $60 USD for a used version in good condition; New/Mint condition can exceed $75 USD.
Price (New)
The set it appeared in (75019) retailed for $89.99 USD in 2013, making this figure roughly 1/5th the value of the original set price today.
Compatible Sets
Appears exclusively in Set 75019: AT-TE (2d edition), released in 2013.
Character Background
Coleman Trebor was a Vurk Jedi Master and a member of the Jedi High Council during the Clone Wars. He is most famous for his brief appearance in the Battle of Geonosis where he was killed by Jango Fett while attempting to confront Count Dooku.
Design Notes
The highlight is the custom-molded Vurk head, which accurately captures the dinosaur-like appearance of the character. LEGO used the same Jedi torso found on many other generic Jedi of this era.
Similar Minifigures
Other Jedi Council members like Pablo-Jill (sw0484), Ki-Adi-Mundi (sw0911), or Saesee Tiin (sw0408).
Collectibility
High. Because he is a named Jedi Council member and has only appeared in one set, he is a 'hole-filler' for many serious Star Wars collectors.
History
Prior to 2013, fans had to use custom molds to create a Trebor figure. This 2013 release marked LEGO's commitment to completing the roster of Jedi seen in the Geonosis Arena.
Interesting Facts
The character in the movie was actually a late CGI addition to the arena scene. Because of his unique head shape, this minifigure cannot wear hoods or standard helmets.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in a Geonosis Arena MOC (My Own Creation) or on a Jedi High Council stand. Keep away from direct sunlight to prevent the Sand Blue plastic from fading.
Modification Potential
The Vurk head is a favorite for 'MOCers' creating custom alien species in various themes like Marvel or original Sci-Fi builds.
Overall Assessment
An excellent example of LEGO's detail-oriented 'Golden Era' of Star Wars minifigures. His unique mold and single-set exclusivity make him a standout investment and a must-have for Prequel fans.
