Year Released
Released in 2020. This version debuted in set 75299 'Trouble on Tatooine' and appeared during the peak of the Disney+ series' popularity.
Rarity
Common to Uncommon. While widely produced, this specific version with the Beskar torso and cape remains highly sought after by collectors of the Mandalorian sub-line.
Head
Plain black head under the helmet. Later versions of the character (sw1135) transitioned to an official face print, but this variant relies on the solid black piece to maintain the helmeted look.
Torso
Silver Beskar armor printing on a dark brown torso. Features intricate detailing of the chest plate, belt, and munitions. Back printing continues the armor detail.
Legs
Dark brown legs with greyish printing for the lower leg plates and boots. Detail is crisp but lacks the arm printing found in later 'Ultimate' versions.
Accessories
Includes the iconic T-shaped visor Mandalorian helmet in flat silver, a grey fabric cape, and usually a long Amban phase-pulse blaster or a standard blaster pistol.
Color Scheme
Primary colors are Flat Silver, Dark Brown, and Black, reflecting the 'Beskar' metallic aesthetic from Season 1 and 2 of the series.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso and legs. The silver ink has a slight metallic sheen, though not as reflective as chrome. No arm or side-leg printing on this specific ID.
Variants
Several variants exist: sw1022 (Durasteel armor), sw1135 (identical but with a flesh-tone face), and sw1212 (beskar with arm printing).
Condition Notes
Common wear includes fraying at the edges of the cloth cape and 'swish' marks on the flat silver helmet. Check for torso cracks at the hip joints.
Estimated Value
Approximately $8 - $12 USD used; $15 - $20 USD in new condition. The Baby Yoda (Grogu) figure seen next to it adds an additional $3 - $5 to the total value.
Price (New)
Included in set 75299 which retailed for $29.99 USD. The figure's individual value currently represents about 30% of the set's original MSRP.
Compatible Sets
75299 Trouble on Tatooine, 75312 Boba Fett's Starship (Slave I), and 75315 Imperial Light Cruiser.
Character Background
Din Djarin, a lone bounty hunter of the Mandalorian creed. This figure represents him after upgrading his armor with the Beskar earned from 'The Client'.
Design Notes
The helmet mold is a masterpiece of LEGO design, perfectly capturing the Boba Fett-style silhouette while using a distinct silver plastic that mimics metal.
Similar Minifigures
Boba Fett (sw0711), Mandalorian Loyalist (sw1164), and Paz Vizsla (sw1172).
Collectibility
High. Despite volume, the Mandalorian is an 'anchor' character for modern Star Wars collecting. Stable investment with slow appreciation.
History
Follows the lineage of the 1999 Boba Fett. Shows the evolution of LEGO’s ability to print detailed 'weathered' textures on dark plastic.
Interesting Facts
This specific figure was the subject of much debate upon release because fans were eager for a face print, which LEGO withheld until a later wave.
Display Suggestions
Ideal for desert dioramas (Tatooine/Nevarro). Display alongside sw1113 (Grogu) for the most iconic visual pairing.
Modification Potential
Commonly modified with custom 3rd-party 'Cape Cantina' capes or dark-saber accessories to represent the Season 2 finale.
Overall Assessment
An essential 9/10 figure for any Star Wars fan. It represents the modern era of LEGO Star Wars character design—accurate, detailed, and highly recognizable.
