Death Star is about typical value for its size
Average
#30 of 83 Star Wars sets with 1,000+ pieces
Twenty-seven minifigures give this Death Star about twice the usual minifigures per dollar for a big Star Wars set, and plastic per dollar is roughly 12% above typical. But $499.99 buys only about 57 pieces per $10 against a typical 72, near the bottom of its group, so it lands at average despite a 4.3 rating.
