• This Luke Skywalker (Bespin Duel) was released individually carded
• There were three variations of this figure which could be found in stores: one with a bloody painted magnet in the hand - one with a non-bloody magnet in the hand - one with a plastic peg
• Pictured here is the plastic peg version
• Luke's right hand can be detached from the arm - it is attached via a plastic peg instead of a magnet
• The magnetic lightsaber hilt fits well into both hands
• The blue lightsaber blade can be detached from the hilt - this way Luke can be displayed with an ignited or non-ignited lightsaber
• There is a button on the back which when pressed moves Luke's upper body left and right ("slashing lightsaber attack!")
• The blaster is a good fit for both hands - but it doesn't fit well into the holster
• The medical tourniquet fits well onto the right arm
• Hasbro also included a 3-piece Bespin weathervane which has a suction cup at the end and can be attached to a ceiling
• The paint application was well executed with lots of dirt and weathering on the front and back of the figure
• For 2002 this Bespin Luke was a truly fantastic action figure which came with a ton of accessories

As Luke battles Darth Vader in Cloud City, he rebuffs Vader's attempts to make him submit to the dark side. Wounded by Vader, Luke heroically chooses to plummet to almost certain death rather than to yield to the dark side. Managing to grab hold of a weathervane, he shrugs to hang on until his Rebel friends can rescue him.
