Brickset has posted an image of a new LEGO Star Wars polybag of Darth Revan which was found in the Czech Republic. He was first seen as the main protagonist in the Knights of the Old Republic video game back in 2003, which I’ve played before on the PC. He was a Dark Lord of the Sith and Master to Darth Malak and was in part of the Mandalorian Wars as well as the Jedi Civil War. Brickset notes that Revan could be the exclusive minifigure for the LEGO May the Fourth promotion this year. More details as they become available for this polybag.

Hoping I’ll only need to spend 50 US to get him! I’m a huge fan of the KOTOR games and I NEED this…
YES PLEASE
I’m not sure how I feel about this. I really hope he is not the May 4th promo fig. I mean, come one, 15th anny and we get a character that may or may not be canon (more likely the latter) in the near future? Lame.Very cool fig, but lame if this is the May promo.
Revan is canon and I don’t care what Disney says! lol
The character is cannon, it was created by the official department, Lucasfilm Games, unless you’re one of the “hardcore” Star Wars fans who only believes that characters created by George Lucas himself should ever be considered cannon, meaning the new movie trilogy, old republic games, and TV show does nothing for you.
I think he was talking about the fact that Disney plans to “revamp” cannon.
either way I will always consider Revan cannon
That and, since this is such a small corner of the Galaxy, how I feel like it is too obscure for the May promo. Something that would appeal to all fans (ideally something from the 6 films) would be more appropriate for such a special anniversary. Either way, the promo hasn’t been announced yet so we shall see.
Well, the video game still exists. It’s a real thing, and this is a real character, whether or not he’s canon. It was a very popular game.
But I agree with your point about broad appeal. It’s an old game, and by today’s standards, an obscure character. Not a great May the 4th fig.
At the other end of the spectrum, (very broad appeal) there’s DK’s updated Visual Dictionary that comes with that ugly old Luke Skywalker figure. Something like that would also be a terrible anniversary figure at The Lego Store.
