Product Description

Product Description

Darth Maul was a weapon forged by the hateful energies of the dark side to ensure the victory of the Sith over the Jedi order. A creature of pure evil, Maul had no personality beyond his ultimate devotion to his master, Darth Sidious. His goal was singular--to exact vengeance upon the Jedi for the decimation of the Sith ranks. This action figure of Darth Maul features awesome detail and includes his double-bladed lightsaber.

Product Description

This is a Star Wars - Saga Phantom Menace Darth Maul (Sith Training) NIP Action Figure from the 2002 toy series. After rescuing Queen Amidala from the impending invasion of Naboo, Jedi apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi and his Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn discover Anakin Skywalker, a nine-year-old slave unusually strong in the Force, on Tatooine. The heroes return to Naboo where Anakin and the Queen face massive invasion forces, while the two Jedi fight the Darth Maul and realize that the invasion is the first step in a sinister scheme by the dark forces known as the Sith.

This review is from: Star Wars: Episode 2 > Darth Maul (Sith Training) Action Figure (Toy)

There are tons of different Darth Maul figures out there. Some are a complete waste of money (POTJ Final Duel), but this one is worth picking up. The sculpt, red highlights, and articulation are worth it alone, but it's the metal saber that makes this figure. Maul's knee-cuts allow him to pose for battle or kneel in front of his master. The head is one of the best Maul sculpts yet -except that Hasbro forgot to paint his teeth. His open mouth is completely black. The action feature's not that bad, but seems a tad uneccessary. The arm can be spun at the shoulder and wrist -it seems that one of these actions would have been sufficient enough. Two makes his right arm detract from the figure: it's straight. Maul cannot hold his hilt with both hands. You can fake it by having him hold the very ends of the hilt in each hand, but it doesn't look all that great. The metal hilt is nicely detailed, as are the blades, but they seem a tad short. The Sith probe droid is okay, but uneccessary. A Darth Sidious hologram would have worked better, and looks great on display in front of the kneeling Maul (you can find the hologram with either the Count Dooku or Lott Dodd figures). Overall, this one's a keeper.

Hasbro has made so many different version of Darth Maul that i was hesitant to purchase this at first, but after seeing him in a store and looking closer i saw that he is one of the best versions yet. Great detailing on the head and lightsabre, he also has great articulation. i'm not too fond of the extra red accents, but that's minor complaint. It looks good sitting next to Ct Dooku, and Bespin Vader.

Ok, like most I was skeptical about ANOTHER Darth Maul figure coming out but when the figure actually arrived it was a different story. The new scupt is very detailed and really great. His pose is a little funny and doesn't lend itself to much articulation but that's more than made up for by his moving arm, which both raises and lowers, as well as spins the light sabre. Major drawback -> Hasbro has relied on the magnet to hold the light sabre in place and I don't think this is enough. A tighter grip of his hand might have done more than the magnet to keep him from fliging the light sabre. All in all, a cool toy and the drawbacks are fairly minor.
