Star Wars: Episode IX : The Rise of Skywalker - Knight of Ren (Heavy Blade) (Hematite Chrome) - Funko Pop! (335) - (Large)
The Knights of Ren was an enclave of masked warriors who served Kylo Ren—master of the Knights of Ren and Supreme Leader of the First Order—during the New Republic Era. They were neither Jedi nor Sith, but members of a new generation of Force-sensitive adepts that emerged to fill the void left by the demise of the last Sith Lords. Adhering to the ways of the Ren, a philosophy epitomized by the lightsaber, the Knights roamed the galaxy causing wanton destruction as devotees of the dark side of the Force. Armed with distinctive weapons for ranged and close-quarter combat, they were fearsome enforcers of their master's will.
