Star Wars Black Series Darth Maul — Every Figure Across All Eras

Darth Maul has one of the most improbable character arcs in Star Wars — a near-silent Sith apprentice who appears to die in his debut film and then spends the next twenty years of in-universe time becoming one of the franchise’s most psychologically complex figures. The Black Series has covered him across every major phase of that arc, and the figure range rewards collectors who know the full story: the TPM warrior, the Clone Wars resurrection, the Old Master of the gaming era, and the Shadow Lord of the 2026 publishing tie-in are four genuinely different versions of the same character.

Darth Maul in Star Wars

Maul is Dathomirian Zabrak — born on Dathomir, taken from his mother by Darth Sidious as an infant, raised as a Sith weapon rather than an apprentice in any meaningful sense. His role in The Phantom Menace is almost entirely physical: he exists to demonstrate a threat level, to kill Qui-Gon Jinn, and to be defeated by Obi-Wan. He says perhaps fifteen words across the entire film. His presence is entirely expressed through the double-bladed saberstaff, the tattooed face, and the specific choreography of the Duel of the Fates.

His survival of that duel — bisected at the waist, falling through the reactor shaft — was not in the original plan. Dave Filoni and the Clone Wars team made a creative decision to bring him back, and the story they told with the resurrected Maul is substantially more interesting than his original role. The spider-legged nightmare discovered by Savage Opress is a being broken by hatred and sustained by it, gradually restored to something functional and then to something dangerous. His subsequent arc — building the Shadow Collective, taking Mandalore, losing it, being used by Palpatine and discarded, rebuilding himself yet again — is a sustained examination of what happens to a Sith weapon when it’s no longer needed.

His final confrontation with Obi-Wan in Rebels is the most economically told resolution in the franchise. Three exchanges. Two strikes. A lifetime compressed into seconds. Obi-Wan holds him as he dies, and Maul’s last words are about whether Luke will avenge them both — the Sith weapon, even at the end, framing everything in terms of the conflict that defined him.

The Jedi: Fallen Order Old Master configuration shows him in his final years — operating alone on Dathomir, seeking whatever the planet’s connection to the Nightsisters and the dark side can offer, a character who has outlived every plan he made and every alliance he built.

The TPM Figure

The original Orange Wave Phase 1 Darth Maul from 2013 is the line’s founding Sith figure — one of the launch releases that established the Black Series format’s approach to alien characters. Pre-Photo Real, pre-Galaxy Collection, it remains historically significant as the original commitment to Maul at 6-inch scale.

The Galaxy Collection TPM Darth Maul from 2024 is the definitive modern version — Photo Real production applied to his distinctive Zabrak facial tattoos and the specific TPM design vocabulary. The tattooed Dathomirian face at 6-inch scale with current production quality is one of the better alien head sculpts the line has produced in the Galaxy Collection era. For the Duel of the Fates display, this is the required figure.

The Force FX Elite Darth Maul Lightsaber covers the double-bladed saberstaff as a prop piece — the weapon whose specific design is inseparable from the character’s TPM identity. The split staff — both halves of the weapon separated at the central grip — is the game-changing visual that the Duel of the Fates sequence introduced, and the Force FX Elite captures it at prop scale.

The Clone Wars Figure

The Darth Maul (Cybernetic Legs) from the Clone Wars sub-line is the resurrection configuration — the mechanical spider-like lower body that replaced his severed legs, the specific design of the restored Maul from Clone Wars season four onward. This is not a variant of the TPM figure. It’s a fundamentally different visual design representing a fundamentally different version of the character.

The cybernetic legs are the figure’s most immediately striking element and require display space that the standard bipedal figures don’t — the extended mechanical limbs change the figure’s footprint significantly. The result is one of the line’s most imposing display pieces: the Shadow Collective warlord at his most physically dramatic. Essential for the Siege of Mandalore display.

The Old Master and Shadow Lord

The Gaming Greats Old Master covers his Jedi: Fallen Order configuration — hooded, weathered, operating alone on Dathomir, the character stripped of the Shadow Collective and the grand plans and reduced to whatever personal agenda remains. It’s the most contemplative Maul design in the line, at significant tonal distance from both the TPM warrior and the Clone Wars warlord.

The Maul: Shadow Lord 2026 release covers the publishing tie-in configuration — part of the dedicated sub-line that also produced Rook Kast, the Eleventh Brother, and Devon Izara. For collectors of the Maul: Shadow Lord display, this is the era-accurate Maul for the Shadow Collective’s specific visual context.

The Comic Figure

The 50th Anniversary Darth Maul (Comic) covers the Marvel Comics visual interpretation — the pre-Canon design that the Legends publishing era established before the animated series and films gave the character his broader arc. For the Expanded Universe Display, it’s the Maul entry from the publishing history the franchise built before Disney’s Canon reset.
