Product Overview

This 349-piece LEGO Star Wars set recreates Darth Vader's helmet and shoulders as a detailed display bust, mounted on a rotating stand that allows viewing from every angle. Designed for adult builders, the model captures the Dark Lord's iconic angular helmet, glossy black armor, and the distinctive control panel on his chest. The completed bust stands approximately 7 inches tall and includes a Darth Vader minifigure for additional display.

  • 349 LEGO pieces build a substantial desktop bust that turns smoothly on its base for 360-degree viewing
  • Architectural building techniques create the angled geometry of Vader's helmet and the mechanical details of his life-support chest armor
  • Bonus Darth Vader minifigure with cape and lightsaber adds a smaller collectible to the set
  • Compatible with other LEGO Star Wars display sets, including character busts and helmet builds from the same collection line
  • Mid-level complexity offers a focused 2 to 3-hour build that explores symmetry, angled construction, and color-blocking techniques
