Mae (Holocomm) — Star Wars The Black Series

Overview

Mae (Holocomm) is a Walmart exclusive released in 2024 at $27.99, part of the Black Series Holocomm Collection sub-line. Mae Aniseya — twin sister of Osha — is the primary antagonist of The Acolyte, a trained assassin operating in the High Republic era under the influence of a Sith Lord. Where Osha abandoned the Jedi, Mae was taken from the Jedi as a child under traumatic circumstances and was trained in darkness. The result on screen is a character who fights with knives and deception rather than a lightsaber, and the figure reflects this — four knives and a mask rather than a lightsaber hilt.

This is the first and only 6-inch Black Series figure of Mae, making it the definitive representation of the character in this scale.

The Holocomm Collection

The Holocomm Collection is a Phase 4 exclusive sub-line adding a light-up Holo Puck and Bounty Chip to each figure as additions over standard retail releases. Ten figures were released across 2023–2024 via multiple exclusive channels. Mae and her twin Osha Aniseya are the Acolyte pair within the sub-line — Mae at Walmart, Osha at Hasbro Pulse and Disney Store — both at $27.99. The Holo Puck illuminates on press; both accessories are exclusive to Holocomm Collection packaging.

The Figure

18 joints — barbell-jointed neck, ball-jointed lower neck, butterfly-jointed shoulders, swivel-hinged shoulders, swivel-hinged elbows, swivel-hinged wrists, ball-jointed waist, barbell-jointed hip, swivel-hinged knees, swivel boots, rocker ankles. The butterfly-jointed shoulders give the figure extended forward reach for knife-fighting poses and crouching stances appropriate to Mae’s assassin fighting style. Swivel boots allow foot adjustment for stable two-point stances.

Accessories

Mae has the richest accessory set of the two $27.99 Acolyte figures, and one of the more interesting in the Holocomm line:

4 knives — Mae fights primarily with blades, and four knives gives multiple display options: blades in hands, blades sheathed, mixed. The knives are small accessories — keep track of them.

Mask (down position) — Mae wears a fabric mask that covers the lower face; this version has it worn naturally down.

Mask (up position) — the mask pulled up to cover the face — the concealed assassin look. Two separate mask accessories allow the display choice without any modification.

Soft-goods cape — the flowing dark cape that is part of Mae’s assassin silhouette.

Light-up Holo Puck — Holocomm Collection standard. Contextually fitting for a Sith-aligned operative.

Bounty Chip — Holocomm Collection standard.

The two-mask accessory approach — separate up and down versions rather than a movable single mask — is a smart design choice that avoids a fragile mask mechanism while still giving collectors both display options.

Mae vs. Osha

The twin dynamic is central to The Acolyte. Both sisters are played by Amandla Stenberg, and their opposing paths — Jedi (then dropout) versus Sith assassin — define the series. On shelf, Mae and Osha Holocomm side by side make an immediately compelling display: visually near-identical figures in completely opposed configurations, one with a Holo Puck and calm posture, one with knives and a raised cape. Collectors interested in either character should seriously consider acquiring both.

The Acolyte Character Context

Mae is not a Sith in the traditional sense — she’s a weapon shaped by grief, loyalty, and manipulation, operating at the instruction of a mysterious figure known only as “The Master.” Her knife-based fighting style is trained, effective, and personal. The four knives as her primary accessories accurately reflect how she fights, and the dual mask options reflect her operational habit of concealing her identity during missions. It’s a figure that rewards knowing the character.

First and Only in 6-Inch

Like Osha, Mae may be the only 6” Black Series figure this character receives. The Acolyte was not renewed for a second season, and future releases of High Republic characters depend on Hasbro’s product decisions. The Holocomm version is the one to get — and at $27.99 from Walmart, the price is accessible.

Secondary Market

Walmart, 2024. The four knives are the smallest accessories and most likely to be missing from a loose figure — check carefully. Both mask pieces should be present. Soft-goods cape should be intact and properly draped.

Verdict

Mae Holocomm is the best-equipped figure in the $27.99 Holocomm tier — four knives, two mask variants, soft-goods cape, and the Holo Puck/Bounty Chip additions. The butterfly shoulders enable the crouching and reaching poses that suit an assassin. For Acolyte collectors, this and Osha Holocomm are must-owns as the only 6” representations of these characters.

The Acolyte Twins as a Collector Pair

Mae and Osha Aniseya are two sides of the same person — literally, as twins played by the same actress. Buying one without the other leaves the story incomplete. The two figures make an exceptional paired display: same base face sculpt, completely different costume and weapons, opposing faction alignment. Osha (HasbroPulse/Disney Store, $27.99) and Mae (Walmart, $27.99) are priced identically and both in the same Holocomm tier, making a combined purchase a clean decision. Their contrasting knife-vs-no-weapon configurations, masked vs unmasked display options, and light vs dark aesthetics work together on a shelf in a way that most two-figure companion buys don’t.

Walmart Availability

Walmart carries two of the ten Holocomm figures — Ahsoka Tano and Mae. The dual Walmart entries at different price points ($34.99 and $27.99) mean a single retailer visit or online order covers both if you’re collecting the full Holocomm set. Mae’s $27.99 price combined with Walmart’s often aggressive in-store pricing makes this one of the more accessible figures in the sub-line to acquire at or below MSRP.
