Below average

#118 of 152 Star Wars sets under 200 pieces

This 2018 buildable Darth Vader is well liked (4.1 of 5), and its plastic per dollar is about typical for a small Star Wars set. The price is the problem: $39.99 buys about 31 pieces per $10 against a usual 54 and no minifigures, and it costs roughly 53% more than its contents usually would, around $26.
