Five minifigures are included: Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, R2-D2, Nute Gunray, and a Security Battle Droid.
Background
After Anakin Skywalker lost his yellow Jedi Interceptor aboard General Grievous' flagship, the Invisible Hand during the Battle of Coruscant, he stole a dark green Interceptor from the Jedi Temple and traveled to Mustafar to execute the Separatist leaders, thus ending the Clone Wars.
