This Black Series Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight) figure was released single carded in September 2023
Luke Skywalker was part of Hasbro's celebration of Return Of The Jedi's 40th anniversary and was released in vintage Kenner-inspired packaging
Luke Skywalker came with an extra chest plate and his signature green lightsaber
The green blade on the saber can be removed, this way the hilt can be hung onto the hook on the belt
The weapon fits well into both hands
The belt is not removable from the figure
It's easy to replace the chest plate, simply pull it off and plug the new one into the hole
The extra chest plate lets you display Luke Skywalker the way he appeared a the beginning of the fight with Darth Vader or afterwards with the flap on the shirt down
The figure looks great overall with a good Mark Hamill likeness, great proportions and paint application
However, the shortcomings of this release become apparent when it comes to accessories and the missing tunic over the shirt. Intended as a tribute to the 40th anniversary of Return Of The Jedi and the original Kenner Luke Skywalker figure, it was crucial for the package to include a soft-goods robe and a Jabba's Palace blaster (along with the tunic). Unfortunately, both of these accessories were omitted and this figure is a Death Star II version and not a Jabba's Palace version of Luke Skywalker
Luke stands well on display even in dynamic poses thanks to stiff joints
