The 2019 Star Wars The Black Series Cal Kestis (#93) brings the breakout protagonist of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order into the 6‑inch line with a sculpt that captures his early‑game appearance — the Bracca scrapper uniform, layered vest, and the beginnings of his reclaimed Jedi identity. This version of Cal represents him shortly after the events of Order 66, still haunted, still hiding, but beginning the journey that will define him.
Released as part of Wave 26, this figure arrived during the final stretch of the Red Line era and stands out for its strong Cameron Monaghan likeness, detailed layered clothing, and the inclusion of BD‑1, one of the most beloved companion droids in modern Star Wars storytelling.
The sculpt balances realism with game‑accurate stylization, translating Cal’s in‑game model into a grounded Black Series aesthetic.
