Few figures in Hasbro's 6-inch Black Series catalog have drawn as much attention for their sheer novelty as Rio Durant. Released in 2018 as part of the Solo: A Star Wars Story tie-in wave, this Ardennian pilot occupies a genuinely unique place in the line — his four-armed body construction had never been attempted before in the Black Series, making him a standout piece for collectors who appreciate species diversity and sculptural ambition in their displays.
This is a vintage 2018 production example presented in the classic black-box packaging with red accent window, numbered 77 in bold red on the back panel. The figure features Rio's signature pilot vest, goggles, and weathered blue flight suit, with a blaster pistol and additional accessory included in the tray. The multilingual back panel carries his character bio in English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese — a hallmark of the era's international Black Series releases. The box shows shelf wear consistent with its age, typical of a vintage example from this wave.
As part of the Solo wave, Rio Durant pairs naturally alongside Qi'ra, Range Trooper, and Han Solo in Mimban armor — a wave widely regarded as one of the stronger themed assortments of the late 2010s Black Series run. For collectors building out the Beckett crew or hunting the more character-rich alien figures from that era, Rio Durant remains one of the harder entries to track down and one of the most conversation-starting on any shelf.
