Hello there, custom-made Obi-Wan Kenobi head by Centerpoint Studios.Image: Centerpoint StudiosA few months back, I was walking around DesignerCon and something impossible caught my eye. It was a Star Wars Black Series figure, but something was off. This looked different. It looked, dare I say, too good. The face looked so much better than usual.

And to please Reylo fans, the redeemed Ben Solo, formerly Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), got his reverse Uno Snow White moment when Rey (Daisy Ridley) kissed him before he died.

Image via IMDb The Star Wars Universe is ever expanding, much like our own, and the introduction of new characters in the Disney series has led people to wonder who could take on who, and what would the outcomes be. Despite existing years before Ben Solo’s birth, many wonder if Din Djarin from The Mandalorian could ever take on the unhinged yet powerful Kylo Ren. Now, both of them are strong characters in their own right, having taken on formidable foes and survived numerous threats to their lives. We have a…

Image via Disney/Lucasfilm In Obi-Wan Kenobi, we’re witnessing the latest duel in a battle between two legendary Star Wars saga foes that’s been playing out for decades — namely, the rivalry between the titular Jedi knight and his student-turned-Sith Lord Darth Vader. As we all know, Vader ultimately bested his master during their final tussle in A New Hope. But how would Vader fare against an opponent much more like himself?
