Emperor Palpatine's suttle

LEGO 8096, Emperor Palpatine’s Shuttle. This is a LEGO Star Wars set and was released in July of 2010. The set comes with 592 pieces and 4 mini figures including Emperor Palpatine, Clone Pilot, 2-1B Medic Droid and a battle damaged Anakin Skywalker with Darth Vader helmet.

This is the shuttle we see Emperor Palpatine pick up Anakin with at the end of Episode 3 on the planet of Mustafar (lava planet). Shuttle contains a medic bed where you can lay down Anakin and put on the Darth Vader helmet to complete his transformation. The shuttle is 12 inches long and has a 15 inch wing span. We like the durability of the shuttle.

This set retails for $59.99 which comes to 10 ¢ per piece. Recommended ages is 9-14. Comes with 2 instruction books and the bags are numbered.
