Part of the Star Wars Mythos line of statues from Sideshow Collectibles [link]

This 1:5 scale statue was sculpted nearly two nears ago, now. Designed by Joe Allard and Tom Gilliland, this piece is meant to represent Obi-Wan in the years before "A New Hope", but after "Revenge of the Sith". This gave us an opportunity to imagine the life of Kenobi as he became the reclusive, mystical figure of Tatooine.

It also allowed us to have fun imagining both Ewan McGregor and Alec Guinness as the character, but at different ages than we have seen them in the films.

The statue was sculpted in castiline and wax, with a sculpey base. Some of the lightsabers were sculpted by hand, and Tusken Raider weapons were output from digial models (which is why they look clear).

Thats pretty awesome, I love the idea of almost nomad-like Jedi, traveling with his old Clone trooper armour on his backpack. Though I am wondering why did you gave him Qui-Gon Jinn's lightsaber? I knew he took Anakin's but didn't hear before he'd have his old master's as well.

The Jinn lightsaber was an idea formulated with Sideshow. He actually does take Qui-Gon's lightsaber at the end of Episode 1, or we can infer that he does. We wanted that backpack to tell the story of Obi-Wan, so we stretched the idea a bit. It's highly unlikely Obi-Wan would keep so much stuff, like his armor and what not, but it encapsulates the character, visually, better if we say he did. :)

thanks!
