Theme
Star Wars
Year Released
2021. Debuted in set 75299 Trouble on Tatooine, coinciding with the massive popularity of the Disney+ series Season 2.
Rarity
Uncommon. While widely available in several sets, it remains highly sought after as the definitive 'Beskar' version of the character.
Head
Plain black head block under a Metallic Silver Mandalorian helmet with black T-visor printing. No facial features were included in this specific 2021 variant.
Torso
Silver Beskar chest plate printing on dark brown torso with reddish brown arms and grey hands. Detailed printing includes a bandolier with silver buckles and thermal detonators.
Legs
Dark brown legs with detailed silver printed armor plating on the thighs and knees, and a printed utility belt at the hip.
Accessories
Black cloth cape and a black blaster pistol. Note: The Amban phase-pulse sniper rifle is a common secondary accessory but is not held in the image.
Color Scheme
Metallic Silver (Beskar), Dark Brown, Reddish Brown, and Black. Designed to mimic the weathered, metallic look of the TV character.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on torso (front/back) and legs (front). The metallic ink used for the armor provides a reflective sheen typical of modern Star Wars figures.
Variants
Several variants exist: sw1085 (Pre-Beskar), sw1212 (printed face), sw1165 (with jetpack), and sw1235 (Full Beskar with arm printing). This specific image shows the standard Beskar version without arm printing.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include fraying on the cloth cape and 'neck-cracking' if the cape is too thick. Silver printing on the helmet can also rub off with heavy play.
Estimated Value
$5.00 - $8.00 USD used complete; $10.00 - $12.00 USD new/unassembled.
Price (New)
Original sets containing this figure ranged from $29.99 (75299) to $59.99 (75312). It was never sold as a standalone figure.
Compatible Sets
75299 Trouble on Tatooine, 75312 Boba Fett's Starship, 75315 Imperial Light Cruiser (included with various accessories).
Character Background
Din Djarin, a lone bounty hunter who protects 'The Child' (Grogu). He upgraded his armor from scavenged parts to pure Beskar steel provided by his enclave.
Design Notes
Features the updated 2021 helmet mold which improved the T-visor proportions. The use of metallic silver ink rather than reflective chrome makes it more durable for play.
Similar Minifigures
The Armorer (sw1139), Paz Vizsla (sw1170), and Boba Fett - Re-armored (sw1158).
Collectibility
High. Despite high production numbers, 'Mando' is a cornerstone character for modern Star Wars collectors and essential for completing a 'Razor Crest' or 'N-1 Starfighter' display.
History
First released in 2020 in durasteel colors, the Beskar version (this one) became the standard in 2021. Subsequent 2023 versions have added a double-sided printed face and arm printing.
Interesting Facts
This specific figure's helmet was a significant upgrade in accuracy over the initial 2019 prototype seen in leaked promotional images.
Display Suggestions
Ideal for display next to Grogu (sw1113) or inside a 75325 N-1 Starfighter. Dust-proof acrylic cases are recommended to preserve the metallic leg printing.
Modification Potential
Commonly modified by fans with custom 'printed arms' or replaced with the newer sw1212 head piece to show the character's face.
Overall Assessment
An iconic and essential modern Star Wars minifigure. While the newer variants with arm printing are technically 'superior,' this version is the most accessible entry point for collectors.
