Theme
Star Wars
Year Released
2012 (First released in the 9494 Anakin's Jedi Interceptor)
Rarity
Uncommon. While not exclusive to a rare set, it appeared in only two sets from 2012-2014 and remains the definitive modern "Dark Side" Anakin for many collectors.
Head
Light Flesh piece featuring a scowling/determined expression with a headset/comlink print on one side and a Sith-eye transformation or angry expression on the reverse. Includes dark brown tousled hair (Part 87991).
Torso
Black Jedi robes with dark brown tunics visible at the neck and belt. Front and back printing include realistic fabric folds and a utility belt. Right arm/hand is black (representing the mechanical prosthetic glove), left hand is light flesh.
Legs
Dark brown legs with black hip piece. Front printing depicts the lower part of the Jedi tunic and boots, continuing the aesthetic from the torso.
Accessories
Typically includes a blue lightsaber (chrome or silver hilt). The image shows the figure without accessories. In Set 9494, he also interacts with a lava mining droid and a small Jedi Interceptor.
Color Scheme
Primarily black and dark brown with light flesh skin tones. This palette reflects the character's darker turn in Episode III.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on head, torso, and legs. Features significant detail in the belt buckle and the headset wire wrapping around the cheek.
Variants
This specific variant (sw0419) has the headset. Other Revenge of the Sith versions (like sw1093) lack the headset and feature different facial expressions or 'burnt' printing from the Mustafar duel.
Condition Notes
The Dark Brown legs are prone to 'brittle brown' syndrome (snapping at the hip joints) if handled roughly. Check for torso cracks under the arms and wear on the headset print.
Estimated Value
Used: $15.00 - $22.00; New (Minifigure Only): $25.00 - $35.00. Value fluctuates based on the condition of the fragile brown leg pieces.
Price (New)
Originally released in Set 9494 (Anakin's Jedi Interceptor) for $39.99 USD retail, which included 5 minifigures.
Compatible Sets
9494 Anakin's Jedi Interceptor (2012) and 75033 Star Destroyer (Microfighters Series 1, as a pilot figure in some regional packaging variants).
Character Background
Anakin Skywalker as he appears during the opening of Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith during the Battle of Coruscant, wearing his comlink to coordinate with Obi-Wan.
Design Notes
This figure marked a significant leap in accuracy from the 2005 version (sw0120), introducing the new hair mold and more detailed belt/tunic printing.
Similar Minifigures
sw0120 (Classic Revenge of the Sith Anakin), sw1093 (Mustafar Duel Anakin), sw0488 (Anakin with Sith Eyes).
Collectibility
High. It is a core character from the Prequel Trilogy in his most iconic outfit. Demand remains steady for Episode III dioramas.
History
Follows the evolution from the early yellow-skinned Star Wars figures to the modern highly-detailed flesh-toned versions. Set 9494 was a key 'remaster' of the Jedi Interceptor line.
Interesting Facts
The headset print is a direct reference to the iconic opening sequence of Episode III where Anakin and Obi-Wan dive into the space battle over Coruscant.
Display Suggestions
Ideal for a Mustafar duel diorama or paired with an Obi-Wan Kenobi (sw0197) or R2-D2. Use a transparent stand to mimic the Jedi Interceptor cockpit view.
Modification Potential
The head can be swapped with 'Sith Eye' versions to represent his fall, or the hair can be used for custom Marvel 'Winter Soldier' figures.
Overall Assessment
A quintessential Star Wars minifigure. It captures the look of the character perfectly. Despite the risk of brittle brown legs, it is a must-have for Prequel Trilogy fans.
