Body Image

Boss, leader of Delta Squad.

Boss is the playable protagonist of the 2005 FPS Star Wars: Republic Commando. Unlike the run of the mill Clones, which most Star Wars fans are familiar with, Boss is a Clone Commando, intended for special forces missions. He was trained by the Mandalorian Waylon Vau and commands Delta Squad, consisting of three other Commandos, Fixer, Scorch, and Sev. The squad also cameoed in an episode of The Clone Wars, while Scorch appeared in the first season of The Bad Batch, and is scheduled to appear again in the upcoming season.

Sith Assassin Asajj Ventress.

Asajj Ventress is a Sith Assassin, recruited by Count Dooku. She utilizes two lightsabers with curved hilts, capable of being combined into a single double-bladed lightsaber. While her species was originally left ambiguous, it was eventually revealed that she was part-human and part-Zabrack, hailing from the planet of Dathomir. In the latter half of the Clone Wars, Ventress abandoned the Separatist movement and attempted to kill Count Dooku through various means. Despite ultimately failing, she was still an incredible character.

Image
Body Image

A Rangetrooper from Solo.

The Range Troopers are first seen in Solo: A Star Wars Story. They are an extremely niche variant of normal Stormtroopers, intended for use guarding fast-moving vehicles on low-temperature planets. Their helmets resemble those of tank crew helmets, while they wear magnetic boots to stay firmly in place on top of whatever vehicle they’re guarding. Their armor also has fur coverings to help insulate their body heat. Unlike most Stormtroopers, they also used a unique blaster rifle, the E-10R.

21. Tusken Raider - The Vintage Collection ($19.99)

Image
Body Image

One of the nomadic tribesmen known as Tuskens.

Tusken Raiders, also commonly referred to as Sand People, first appear in A New Hope. They quickly became a fan favorite species, owing to their creative costume design and unique weapons. They were the original inhabitants of the desert planet Tatooine, ever since the planet was covered by a vast ocean, and are more closely related to Jawas than they are humans. This figure pays homage to the classic Tusken design complete with flowing robes and bandoliers to store ammo and supplies.

20. ARC Trooper (Battlefront II) - The Vintage Collection ($15.99)

Image
Body Image

Star Wars Battlefront 2's unique ARC Trooper.

Advanced Recon Commando is the designation for the coolest class of Clone Trooper. Unlike your run-of-the-mill Clone Troopers, ARCs lack any genetic modifications, beyond the standard accelerated aging. In other words, they’re pure Jango Fett. Typically reserved for intelligence gathering missions, the ARC Troopers are more than capable of holding their own against any enemy.

In place of the custom Mandalorian flight suit, Boba instead wears the robes sewed for him by a local tribe of Tuskens, with his Beskar armor over it. The figure rocks his iconic EE-3 blaster carbine and comes with flames to add life into any scene you may want to pose Boba for. It even includes two Stormtrooper helmets, marking the brutality and lawlessness of Tatooine.

Dark Lord of The Sith, Darth Vader.

Darth Vader, Dark Lord of The Sith is the most recognizable character in all of Star Wars. Wielding a red lightsaber, he cut apart the Empire’s enemies with ease, using the Force to crush his opponents like flies. His body is more machinery than flesh, and the suit he wears is required to keep him alive. This figure perfectly captures his appearance from The Empire Strikes Back, though it would look perfect for any post-Empire scene.

Image

14. Cad Bane - The Black Series ($25.99)

Image
Body Image

Old West inspired bounty hunter, Cad Bane.

When Cad Bane first appeared on screen, everyone had the same thought: “Where can I get that hat?” Even without the hat, Cad Bane proved himself to be one of the greatest bounty hunters in the galaxy. His quickdraw puts to shame even the sharpest of shooters, while his cunning and ruthlessness make him a force to be reckoned with. This figure comes with Bane’s signature LL-30 blaster pistols, his rocket boots, western-style duster, and most importantly of all, his hat.

General Grievous was once a great Kaleesh warrior, until his apparent death at the hands of the Jedi… or so he believed. Grievous was rebuilt into a cyborg Menace by Count Dooku, before being trained in the Jedi ways. He was dispatched to lead the Separatist army and kill as many Jedi as possible, a task that he did well, claiming a lightsaber from every Jedi he slew. This figure is based on his original 2003 appearance, a white and grey body with a removable white cape, arms capable of splitting into four, large clawed feet, and four different unique lightsabers.
