Description
Created specially by Paul Herbert this movie-accurate head sculpt of Obi-Wan Kenobi is currently available in 18th (3.75″), 6th scale (12″) or 12th scales (6″). Also known as Ben Kenobi, he is a human male Jedi Master who served on the Jedi High Council during the final years of the Republic Era. Kenobi was born on the planet Stewjon in 57 BBY. He was Force-sensitive, and therefore inducted into the Jedi Order as a child. Raised in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, Kenobi was assigned to Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn. In 32 BBY, Kenobi attained the rank of Jedi Knight by defeating the Sith Lord Darth Maul during the Invasion of Naboo. He also chose to train Anakin Skywalker—the prophesied Chosen One who was destined to destroy the Sith and restore balance to the Force—having promised Jinn who died in the lightsaber duel against Maul. Adopting a hermit lifestyle as “Ben Kenobi,” he watched over Vader’s son, Luke Skywalker, whose Jedi training Kenobi began in 0 BBY. In the same year, Kenobi encountered Vader aboard the first Death Star, where he sacrificed himself to ensure that Luke and his allies escaped from the Sith Lord. In death, Kenobi became one with the Force which allowed him to continue guiding Luke throughout the Galactic Civil War. Printed in high quality grey ABS-like resin. Will require painting.
