sw0544 (Torso/Legs) / sw0003 (Head Base)
Theme
Star Wars
Year Released
2014 (Body), 1999 (Head base)
Rarity
Custom/Damaged. The components are common, but the condition makes it a 'scrap' figure.
Head
Classic Darth Maul (sw0003) head piece that has been heavily defaced with black and red permanent marker or paint.
Torso
Orange Rebel Pilot jumpsuit with detailed printing of a tactical vest, white arms, and light flesh hands. From sw0544.
Legs
Orange legs with hip printing of a brown belt and leg straps with silver buckles. From sw0544.
Accessories
Standard black LEGO blaster rifle (long).
Color Scheme
Primary orange with dark brown and silver printing; head is a corrupted red/black mix.
Printing Details
High-quality 2014-era pad printing on torso and legs; head printing is obscured by manual 'customization'.
Variants
This is a 'franken-figure' combining a Rebel Pilot body (likely Theron Nett or similar) with a damaged Maul head.
Condition Notes
Severely damaged head due to ink/marker. Torso and legs show minor play wear and some dust accumulation.
Estimated Value
$2.00 - $4.00 USD. The body parts are worth a few dollars, but the head has zero collector value due to damage.
Price (New)
The body originally appeared in set 75048 (The Phantom) which retailed for $24.99.
Compatible Sets
75048 (The Phantom), 75051 (Jedi Scout Fighter), 7151 (Sith Infiltrator - for head).
Character Background
A non-canonical mashup of a Sith Lord and a Rebel Alliance Pilot.
Design Notes
The torso (973pb1673c01) was notable for introducing more detailed tactical gear for Rebel pilots in 2014.
Similar Minifigures
Theron Nett (sw0544), Wes Janson (sw0333), classic Darth Maul (sw0003).
Collectibility
Low. This is a play-worn figure with ruined parts, unsuitable for serious collection but fine for MOC 'casualty' scenes.
History
Represents the transition between early 2000s Star Wars parts and mid-2010s detailed printing.
Interesting Facts
The head is one of the first printed Star Wars heads ever made (1999), here obscured by 'sharpie art'.
Display Suggestions
Best used in a background 'junk yard' or 'battle-damaged' diorama.
Modification Potential
High. The head should be replaced with a standard Pilot head; the current head can be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol.
Overall Assessment
A damaged kit-bash minifigure. The body is a solid Rebel Pilot component, but the head is a total loss for collectors.
