Star Wars Black Series Darth Maul

Darth Maul has 7 Star Wars Black Series figures released between 2013 and 2026, covering three radically different versions of the character across his canonical journey — the pristine Sith warrior of The Phantom Menace, the spider-legged nightmare of The Clone Wars resurrection arc, and the ragged Old Master of Jedi: Fallen Order. Each is a distinct character design representing a different chapter in one of Star Wars’ most improbable villain redemption arcs.

Who Is Darth Maul?

Darth Maul is the Zabrak Sith apprentice who serves as the primary villain of The Phantom Menace — introduced as a near-silent physical threat and apparently killed by Obi-Wan Kenobi at the film’s climax. In the canonical Star Wars universe, he survived by sheer hatred and Force will, his severed upper half falling through the reactor shaft and clinging to life in the depths of a garbage dump. Found by his brother Savage Opress, his mechanical lower half was replaced with spider-like cybernetic legs by the Nightsisters of Dathomir, and the restored Darth Maul emerged from Clone Wars season four as one of the animated series’ most compelling figures — no longer a Sith in the formal sense, but a warlord building his own criminal empire through the Shadow Collective. His eventual confrontation with Obi-Wan Kenobi in the Rebels season three finale — three words exchanged, two lightsaber strikes, a lifetime of hatred resolved — is one of the most economically devastating scenes in the franchise.

All Darth Maul Figures

Darth Maul — Orange Wave, 2013 The original Black Series Darth Maul — one of the launch figures of the entire line, number #10 in orange packaging. TPM design with the double-bladed saberstaff. Pre-Photo Real. Historically significant as the Sith warrior who proved the 6-inch format could handle the character’s distinctive tattooed Zabrak design.

Darth Maul (Comic) — 50th Anniversary, 2021 The comics-era Maul from the 50th Anniversary sub-line — based on the Marvel Darth Maul comic series. A specific alternate-media version for expanded universe collectors.

Darth Maul (Cybernetic Legs) — The Clone Wars sub-line CW 11, 2023 The Clone Wars resurrection Maul — mechanical spider-like lower body replacing his severed legs, the design from his return in Clone Wars season four. This is the most visually dramatic Maul figure in the Black Series and captures a fundamentally different character to the pristine TPM version. The curved mechanical legs require display space but create an imposing silhouette.

Darth Maul (Old Master) — Gaming Greats GG 23, 2023 (GameStop exclusive) Maul as he appears in Jedi: Fallen Order — the hooded, weathered Old Master operating on Dathomir decades after his Shadow Collective years. A more restrained, contemplative design than the combat-ready TPM version.

Darth Maul — The Phantom Menace sub-line TPM 05, 2024 The definitive modern TPM Maul — Photo Real face printing applied to his distinctive Zabrak facial markings, double-bladed saberstaff, the specific Phantom Menace costume configuration. The display recommendation for the original 1999 film version. Supersedes the 2013 Orange Wave figure for display purposes.

Maul — Maul: Shadow Lord sub-line, 2026 The Shadow Lord era Maul from the 2026 Maul: Shadow Lord production.

Which Darth Maul Figure to Buy

For TPM Phantom Menace display: Darth Maul (TPM 05) from 2024 — Photo Real Zabrak markings, correct double-bladed saberstaff, the definitive modern version.

For Clone Wars display: Darth Maul (Cybernetic Legs) — entirely different character design, essential for the Clone Wars resurrection arc.

For Jedi: Fallen Order display: Darth Maul (Old Master) from Gaming Greats.

The three versions are not interchangeable — each represents a different era of the character and a different design vocabulary. Collectors who want the full Maul story need all three.
