STAR WARS SHOP EXCLUSIVE
A hero of the Rebellion, Wedge Antilles has flown in some of the most important battles against the Empire, and lived to tell about them. The brave young Corellian first piloted an X-Wing Fighter in the Battle of Yavin and helped Luke Skywalker destroy the first Death Star.

A few years later, during the Battle of Hoth, he and tailgunner Wes Janson were the first to successfully take down an Imperial Walker (AT-AT) using a harpoon and tow-cable.

During the Battle of Endor, Wedge, as Red Leader, spearheaded an attack that took aim at the second Death Star's main reactor. In an amazing display of death-defying aviation, Wedge zoomed in with the Millennium Falcon to help destroy the massive space station. He will forever be known as one of the Galaxy's finest pilots.
