Second ROTJ Black Series Luke. 19 joints. 5 accessories: blaster (trigger-finger right hand), lightsaber with removable green blade, display stand (works well for once), soft-goods robe (wrinkly out of box, straightens, perfect length, hood with patience). Photo-real face — one eye slightly off on review sample. Loose hips on review sample. Overall nice.
Overview
Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) is a Walmart November 2019 exclusive at $19.99 — Luke in his Return of the Jedi all-black outfit, the second time Hasbro released this ROTJ configuration in the 6” Black Series line. 19 joints — ball-jointed neck, lower swivel neck, ball-jointed shoulders, elbows, wrists, upper body, hips, swivel thighs, swivel joints above and below knees, ball-jointed ankles.
Five Accessories
Blaster — fits well in the right hand with trigger-finger placement. Good holster fit too.
Lightsaber with removable green blade — fits well in both hands. The blade detaches cleanly.
Display stand — the source documentation specifically notes this stand works well for this figure, which is worth calling out: other figures using the same stand type often require excessive force to engage. Here it actually works properly.
Soft-goods robe — the hood and robe come wrinkled out of the box, which is expected for fabric accessories. The source notes the wrinkles straighten out after some time. The robe has perfect length — neither too long nor too short — and the hood can be positioned naturally over the head with patience.
QC Notes from the Review Sample
Photo-real face — the printing looks great overall and gives a more life-like appearance. The review sample had one eye slightly off-centre, which is a known QC variable with photo-real printing. Not every copy will have this issue, but it’s worth checking on any loose purchase.
Loose hips — the reviewed figure had very loose hip joints, but this didn’t cause actual display problems. Another QC variable to be aware of.
Secondary Market
Walmart, November 2019. Five accessories: blaster, lightsaber hilt, green blade, display stand, robe. Confirm green blade is present — it’s the most distinctive accessory.
Verdict
Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) is a solid ROTJ black-outfit Luke — the well-fitting robe, proper-length soft-goods, and functioning display stand all land correctly. The photo-real face QC variable (eye alignment) and potential loose hips are secondary market notes to check. Overall nice.
