Who Is Maz Kanata?
Maz Kanata first appeared in Episode VII / The Force Awakens as the keeper of Maz’s Castle on the planet Takodana. Her species is never stated outright on screen, but her small stature, wrinkled orange face, and oversized goggles make her instantly recognizable.
For over a thousand years, she welcomed smugglers, bounty hunters, Jedi, and every other faction of the galaxy into her castle without prejudice. She turns out to be a pivotal character: she had long kept the blue lightsaber that Luke Skywalker lost at Cloud City (originally Anakin Skywalker’s). As the catalyst that awakens Rey to the Force, she plays an iconic role in the sequel trilogy.
Only One Maz Kanata Variant: How to Identify sw0703
As of now, the LEGO Maz Kanata minifigure exists in just one variant, sw0703. No additional variants with different torso colors, alternate sculpts, or release-year differences have been confirmed on BrickLink or the major fan sites.
| Variant Name | sw Number | How to Identify | Main Set |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maz Kanata (The Force Awakens version) | sw0703 | A dedicated small minifigure head (wrinkled orange face with large goggles). The torso has a brown robe with a scarf print. It uses special short leg parts, recreating her at roughly the same size as a child minifigure. | #75139 |
About the Short Leg Parts
Since she’s depicted as quite short on screen, LEGO gives her the dedicated “short leg” parts that sit one step lower than a standard minifigure. Yoda is another well-known character who uses short legs. This sculpt keeps the height scale from looking off when she’s displayed alongside others.
LEGO Star Wars Sets That Include Maz Kanata
Only one LEGO Star Wars set is confirmed to include Maz Kanata (sw0703) at this time. The details are in the table below.
| Set Number | Set Name | Release Year | Variant Included | Appears In | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| #75139 | Battle on Takodana | 2016 | sw0703 | Star Wars: The Force Awakens | Piece count: 389 (BrickLink) / 409 (official LEGO). Launch MSRP $59.99 / EUR59.99. Includes five minifigures: Maz Kanata, Finn, Kylo Ren, and two First Order Stormtroopers. |
Maz Kanata on her own to get if you wish, hunt for a single-minifigure listing on BrickLink you must — the realistic route, this is. Any “to be confirmed” notes in this article, there are not, but shift over time the prices and availability do, hmm, so check BrickLink or BrickEconomy each time before you buy, you should.
#75139 Battle on Takodana Set Overview
#75139 Battle on Takodana is a mid-size set that recreates one of the big midpoint scenes of The Force Awakens: the First Order assault on Maz’s Castle. It packs the restaurant/cantina building section that serves as Maz Kanata’s base, plus the situation where Finn, Kylo Ren, and Stormtroopers clash, all in a single set.
This is the only set in which Maz Kanata has been officially released. From a collecting standpoint, that makes it something of an all-in-one package, since you also get Finn, Kylo Ren, and Stormtroopers at the same time.
First Release, Latest, Rarest, Cheapest: Buying the Maz Kanata Minifigure
- First release: #75139 Battle on Takodana (2016)
- Latest: #75139 Battle on Takodana (2016) — the same set remains the only one with this minifigure
- Rarest: with only one set in existence, there’s no variant-to-variant comparison to make, and no figures on circulation volume are available
- Cheapest: no comparison point. The launch MSRP for #75139 was $59.99 / EUR59.99 (LEGO’s official launch pricing)
#75139 is already retired, so new in-box retail supply is limited. If you want Maz Kanata on her own, you’ll likely need to consider single-minifigure listings on the secondary market (BrickLink and similar).
Related Minifigures to Collect Alongside Maz Kanata
The key figure at the place where the story crosses paths on Takodana, Maz Kanata is. Figrou’s recommendation: from the four figures included in #75139 start, then Rey and Han Solo from other sets add. Build out the Maz’s Castle scene in three dimensions, that lets you.
Given her role in the story (the center of the scene where Finn, Rey, and Kylo Ren all converge on Takodana), displaying her alongside the following characters makes it easy to recreate the “Maz’s Castle” moment.
- Finn: included in #75139. The Resistance character who meets Maz Kanata on Takodana
- Kylo Ren: included in #75139. The First Order commander leading the assault on Takodana
- First Order Stormtroopers x2: included in #75139. The strike team attacking Maz’s Castle
- Rey: included in other sets. The one to whom Maz Kanata entrusts the blue lightsaber
- Han Solo / Chewbacca: included in other sets. The central characters who bring Finn and Rey to Maz’s Castle
