Pong Krell is a Star Wars minifigure that was released in 2013. He appears in 75004 Z-95 Headhunter.
Description[edit | edit source]
Pong Krell has four arms, which are attached in a similar method as on Lord Garmadon's 2012 and 2013 minifigure variations. He wields two double-bladed lightsabers. His head is brown and is a custom mould.
Background[edit | edit source]
Pong Krell was a male Besalisk Jedi Master who served as a Jedi General in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars. A powerful Jedi and a recognized war hero, he was relentless in his tactics on the battlefield, seeking success at all costs. His strategies cost hundreds of clone lives. As a combatant, he was an especially ferocious lightsaber duelist; he had an advantage of four arms and could wield two double-bladed lightabers at the same time. As a general, Krell found insubordination intolerable and required strict adherence to command from all of his soldiers. During the war, Krell foresaw how the Republic would be destroyed from within, thus paving the way for the rise of a New Order. This vision, coupled with his lust for power, ultimately caused Krell to abandon the Jedi way. Outwardly, he maintained the appearance of his ties to the Jedi and Republic. In secret, Pong Krell had embraced the dark side of the Force. He was later shot by Dogma.
