My review of the Lego Star Wars, 75183 Darth Vader Transformation set with rare minfigures. What a great collectable.

The Star Wars universe brought in a lot of interesting minifigures, but nothing is quite like this. This Darth Vader Transformation set is one of the major Lego Star Wars minifigure collectables that can be very hard to find. What you will like about it is the fact that it covers a pivotal scene in the Star Wars world, and one that manages to change the entire saga into the long story we know and love today.

Who is the Darth Vader Transformation set for and what does it include?


LEGO suggests the 75183 Darth Vader Transformation set is for kids aged 7-12. The product itself comes with 282 pieces and complete details on how to build it. But the most important thing is the outstanding attention to detail and stellar quality provided here. The entire system is replicated according to the movie, and it has all the bells and whistles that you got to see during the movie.

The set is designed to be a Lego-themed recreation of the medical bay where Anakin Skywalker is turned into Darth Vader, one of the main antagonists of the story. You have the table that has space for Anakin, and once the table is lowered, it flips to show off Darth Vader.

Included with the set you have some interesting Lego Star Wars minifigure collectables. These are all rare Lego minifigures Darth Vader’s minifigure, Anakin Skywalker, as well as Emperor Palpatine. Aside from that, the set also has 2 medical droids. They don’t come as prebuilt minifigures however, you have to build them yourself.

 What makes the Darth Vader Transformation set stand out?


Maybe the best thing about this set is that it’s a faithful recreation of the movie. The table looks just like it did in the movie, and it’s double-sided to help you showcase the transformation of our hero into a villain. On top of that, there are lots of cool details here too. They added a force explode function, lightsaber rack, there’s even a helmet applicator. All of these provide context to the scene, but they also bring in amazing visuals and help you connect with the hero as he transforms into an antagonist.


It’s also nice to see that they added medical tool elements and even 2 lightsabers to show the transformation of our hero as well. If you want to send others flying once Vader learns about Padme, you can do that thanks to a dedicated force power button.  The set is 3” high, 8” deep and 17” wide. It really is an extraordinary, very high-quality Lego set that you will cherish and enjoy.

 Conclusion


There are lots of things to love about the Darth Vader Transformation set. It looks amazing, it’s almost identical to the scene in the movie and you also get multiple minifigures with it. Plus, you have plenty of accessories and a cool use of Force powers. This Darth Vader Transformation is great for kids and even people of all ages that love Star Wars. This set was before Disney bought the Star Wars rights, so this set is worth more money because of that.

Pros

•    Very detailed, high quality build
•    High quality minifigures
•    Lots of different accessories

•    Lower Anakin on the Table, raise it and get Darth Vader

Cons

•    Some customers had problems having the pieces stick
