Star Wars Duel of the Fates Funko Pops Are Up for Preorder
Say what you will about the prequels, but the Duel of the Fates lightsaber battle in Phantom Menace is one of the most iconic scenes in the whole Skywalker Saga. Funko is releasing an Amazon-exclusive set of figures based on that fight, and they’re up for preorder now. They’re deluxe Funko Pop figures of Darth Maul, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Qui-Gon Jinn. They’re designed to be displayed together to re-create the fight in Funko vinyl. It looks pretty rad.

Not only is this scene just awesome to watch (if a bit heart-wrenching!), but it’s also where many of the best Star Wars flips happen. That part when they have to wait for the force field doors between them to open? Priceless. It’s just good stuff.
If you’re a fan of the prequels, or of Funkos, or of displaying vinyl figures in your domicile, pick these up. They even got young Obi-Wan’s haircut just right.
I’m not entirely sure what the thinking was behind releasing them at different times, but what are you gonna do? The bottom line is, when they’re all lined up together, they look pretty good.
