Qui - Gon has had four variations made , one used between 1999 and 2002 , one redesigned figure in 2007 , and then another in 2011 , and finally a very similar version in 2012 .

Qui - Gon ' s minifigure was redesigned in 2007 . This minifigure had a redesigned torso piece showing his Brick - Yellow tunic , along with some of his brown shirt near the neck . The utility belt printing was redesigned to be more accurate to its appearance in the film . Qui - Gon ' s leg piece in this variant was also a Brick - Yellow , matching the predominant color of the torso piece . Due to The LEGO Group ' s change from yellow to flesh - colored skin in licensed minifigures , this variant had a flesh colored headpiece and hands . The printing on Qui - Gon ' s head remained very similar to the original variant , however the printing representing his facial hair was a lighter shade of brown . This variant only appeared in the 7665 Republic Cruiser , and had a reddish - brown hood as opposed to a hairpiece . Like in all other appearances , Qui - Gon came with a cape and a green - bladed lightsaber , although a Medium Stone Grey hilt was used as opposed to a shiny silver one . In some sets , he was mistakenly released with Obi - Wan Kenobi ' s head from set 7255 . This was fixed and Qui - Gon was given a new head . In 2011 a third version of Qui - Gon was released in the set 7961 Darth Maul ' s Sith Infiltrator . The clothing resembles the original version . He again uses the same special hairpiece . He also has a thicker beard and moustache . This variant has a brown cape , Brick - Yellow torso , brown legs and a metallic silver lightsaber with a green blade . In the second wave of 2012 , another version of the Jedi Master was released . The only difference between this minifigure and the previous one is that his head is double sided . One side of the head has the same printing as the 2011 minifigure , except the mouth is changed to a smile .

Qui - Gon Jinn was Jedi Master who carried out several missions for the Order . He was once the padawan of former Jedi Master Count Dooku before he left the Jedi Order and turned to the Dark side of the Force . As a Jedi Master , Qui - Gon took on Obi - Wan Kenobi as his Apprentice . About ten years later , the two were sent on a mission by Chancellor Valorum to enter talks with the Trade Federation , a major group of shipping organizations under the influence of the Sith . The Federation , led by Nute Gunray were blockading the planet of Naboo . Qui - Gon and his Apprentice Obi - Wan Kenobi landed in Gunray ' s capital ship , and were met by the protocol droid TC - 14 . Once Gunray informed the Sith Lord Darth Sidious of the Jedi , he was ordered to kill them . The Jedi ' s cruiser was destroyed , and they were attacked by several Battle Droid s , but they managed to fend them off and until they were attacked by two Droideka s . The two managed to escape , and discovered that the Federation was planning to invade Naboo . They stowed away on separate MTT ' s which were being deployed to the planet ' s surface , so that they could contact the Queen . Landing on Naboo , Qui - Gon came across a Gungan named Jar Jar Binks . During an attack on the two by two STAP s , they met up with Obi - Wan . Jar Jar told the two Jedi about a hidden underwater Gungan city known as Otoh Gunga . After traveling to the city and talking with the Gungan leader Boss Nass , Jinn , Kenobi and Binks were given a transport so that they could get to Theed , the capital city of Naboo . The Jedi rescued the Queen from imprisonment , and the Jedi , Binks and the Queen and her entourage escaped the planet , heading for the Galactic capital of Coruscant . However , their ship was damaged from a Federation cruiser during the escape , and could only make it as far as the planet Tatooine . Qui - Gon , Jar Jar , the astromech droid R2 - D2 and Queen Amidala disguised as one of her handmaidens and going by the name she was born with of Padmé Naberrie , left the ship and went on a search for replacement parts to fix the hyperdrive . They came across a junk dealer called Watto who had the parts , but like everyone else on the planet , would not accept Republic credits , the only form of currency that the Queen and the Jedi had . The ship and its crewmembers made it to Coruscant ; however , it soon became apparent to Queen Amidala that the Republic would not offer any help to them . The group then traveled back to Naboo , planning to defeat the Trade Federation . A battle ensued on different areas of the planet . A group including the Jedi , Anakin and Padmé attempted to retake Theed ' s palace . Fighting their way through several Battle Droids , the group secured the hangar , before the main door opened with Darth Maul , the same warrior dressed in black Qui - Gon had fought on Tatooine , blocking their path . The Jedi prepared to duel with Maul , while the other looked for an alternate way into the palace ' s throne room . Qui - Gon and Obi - Wan fought with Maul for several minutes , attacking and counterattacking , until Obi - Wan was cut off from the other two . It was then that Maul was able to overcome Qui - Gon with his double - bladed lightsaber , delivering a blow to Qui - Gon ' s face with his hilt , and quickly stabbing him . Obi - Wan , after watching his Master stabbed , attacked Maul ferociously , eventually managing to defeat him , slicing him in two . Qui - Gon died in Obi - Wan ' s arms , telling Obi - Wan to train Anakin . The Trade Federation was defeated soon after , largely due to the fact that Anakin had managed to take out the Droid Control Ship in space in a Naboo Starfighter .
