LEGO Star Wars: Darth Vader Transformation Set (7251)

LEGO Star Wars: Darth Vader Transformation Set (7251)

This is one of the more bizarre Lego collections you might come across. The set re-creates the scene at the end of Star Wars, Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, in which the newly incarnated Darth Vader--fresh off surgery--is raised forward and revealed, strapped to a Frankenstein-like chair. Here, the swiveling seat sits atop a platform, with a battered Anakin Skywalker on one side and Vader on the other. A five-armed, robotic surgeon stands nearby. The whole thing can be reassembled into a turret manned by the evil Sith Lord himself. The 53 pieces are all tiny; little Lego Darth is as cute as a button. An instruction booklet is included. --Andy Boynton
