Year Released
2019 - Released ahead of the December premiere of 'The Rise of Skywalker' to build hype for the Final Order.
Rarity
Uncommon - While mass-produced in a Battle Pack, it was restricted to only three official sets during the Episode IX wave.
Head
Plain black head piece used to create a 'blank' visor look behind the helmet, which features intricate red line-printing over a red mold.
Torso
Highly detailed red printing with dark red and black lines depicting Sith Trooper armor plating and tech panels front and back.
Legs
Standard red legs with detailed printing on the hips and front of the legs showing armor segments and knee pads.
Accessories
Equipped with a black medium blaster rifle (blaster carbine) with a technician's scope.
Color Scheme
Monochromatic red palette featuring Bright Red as the base with Dark Red and Black line work for depth.
Printing Details
Exceptional pad printing with very fine line detail on the helmet and torso, typical of the high-fidelity designs of the late 2010s.
Variants
None for this ID; however, the Sith Jet Trooper (sw1075) is a closely related variant with a jump pack and different helmet mold.
Condition Notes
Prone to visible scratches on the large smooth surfaces of the red helmet; check for 'arm cracks' which are common in red plastic from this era.
Estimated Value
Used: $5 - $8 USD | New: $10 - $14 USD. Value is kept stable by its popularity for army building.
Price (New)
First appeared in the Sith Troopers Battle Pack (75266) which retailed for $14.99 USD.
Compatible Sets
75256 Kylo Ren's Shuttle (2019), 75266 Sith Troopers Battle Pack (2020), 75279 Star Wars Advent Calendar (2020).
Character Background
The Sith Eternal's elite infantry from the hidden world of Exegol, programmed for absolute loyalty to the resurrected Darth Sidious.
Design Notes
Features a unique helmet mold that captures the 'ribbed' texture of the on-screen Sith Trooper armor more effectively than a standard Stormtrooper mold.
Similar Minifigures
Sith Jet Trooper (sw1075), First Order Stormtrooper (sw0667), Crimson Stormtrooper (sw0693).
Collectibility
High demand for army builders who wish to recreate the massive scale of the Final Order; generally stable investment.
History
Represents the evolution of the Stormtrooper design into a more aggressive, Sith-inspired aesthetic for the conclusion of the sequel trilogy.
Interesting Facts
The design of the Sith trooper armor was actually influenced by the classic Imperial Royal Guard and the original Stormtrooper.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in ranks of 4 or 8 to mimic the military formations seen in the Sith Citadel on Exegol.
Modification Potential
Excellent for custom 'Sith' themed MOCs or red-themed bounty hunter customs using the high-detail torso and legs.
Overall Assessment
A standout 'modern' trooper with one of the most striking color schemes in Star Wars LEGO history. Highly recommended for fans of the Sequel era.
