I say get the Dark Lord! Just not from shop@home. Their prices are totally
out of hand (in Europe, at least). Granted, the box is WAY too large, but
the set contains almost exclusively very small parts so the box has to be

marketing-ogers at LEGO think). Building the model was a moderate pain.
Almost all parts are black and often you don't have a clue about what you're
building - but having Lord Vader finally sitting on a shelf is an
impressive, an even MOST IMPRESSIVE look!
