Figure Body & Accessories
The figures comes with the standard well-articulated Sideshow body. The head is
permanently attached to the body thus swapping it to another body is not an option.
The accessories here are pretty standard. The only stand out items that can be seen here
is Obi-Wan personal lightsabers and the electro-binoculars.
The Jedi Outfit
Sideshow outfit never have the quality feel to it. It made of cheap fabric, comes
crumple and has tons of extra threads.
Extra threads galore! This tunic comes with tons of it.
Unlike Han Solo and Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan's pants does not comes with stockings
or a closed-end. I do not know why Sideshow is excluding this and it is quite
inconvenient to re-dress the figure.
The usual Jedi boots and utility belt. Obi-Wan comes with a reddish brown boots.
The pouch on the utility belt can be open.
Face Sculpt
Another superb sculpt from Sideshow featuring a very close to perfect sculpt of Ewan
McGregor as seen in "Star Wars : Revenge of The Sith". These are very closed-up photos and
might not 100 percent accurate. However, when viewing the figure from a distance, it
really does look alike the real person.

Box Art Story
The embodiment of Jedi ideals, Obi-Wan Kenobi is both wise and strong. His patience and
keen powers of observation have served him well as one of the Jedi Order's most masterful
negotiators. These qualities are matched in measure by his swiftness and skill with a
lightsaber, making him Master Yoda's first choice for many unconventional missions.
Dependable and trustworthy are traits the Jedi Council has come to associate with Obi-Wan,
and his successes in the Outer Rim campaign have earned him a seat among their number by the
final days of the Clone Wars.
Having taken on the training of Anakin Skywalker since the death of his own Master
Qui-Gon Jinn on Naboo, Obi-Wan has tutored the young Jedi in the ways of the Force to the
best of his ability and the two have become fast friends, remaining together long after
Anakin's graduation to full Jedi Knight. Their trust in one another and complimentary styles
have helped mold them into a virtually unstoppable team in battle, equally dangerous to
Separatist enemies whether flying wingtip to wingtip in space or fighting back to back with
lightsabers on the ground. Even in the company of famous Jedi warriors such as the lethally
efficient Agen Kolar, starfighter-ace Saesee Tiin or swift Kit Fisto, Obi-Wan and Anakin
have gained flashy reputations as the Republic's champions in the Outer Rim Sieges.
Called home to Coruscant by a Separatist attack, Obi-Wan is Anakin's most fervent
supporter when the tempestuous Jedi's loyalties are questioned by the Council. While he is
wary of Anakin's darker side, Obi-Wan has faith in his friend's innate goodness and ability
to master his own passions and formidable power. Even when sent by Yoda to Utapau in search
of General Grievous, a mission Anakin sorely coveted, Obi-Wan's confidence in his troubled
former apprentice is unshaken. They part as friends and brothers, unaware that the next time
they meet, it will be to fight to the death.
