Based on 33 reviews · thin
The Resistance Transport Pod doesn't get talked about enough — it's a tight, screen-accurate little ship with three solid minifigs that punches well above its shelf weight for a 2017 set.
Is the price fair?B-Solid deal in 2017, and the market hasn't forgotten it — B- only because the secondary price has climbed a bit since retirement.
Will you love it?B+Three minifigs, a screen-faithful design, and a build that doesn't phone it in — this one sticks with you.
Holds its value?B+Steady post-retirement appreciation puts it in reliable B+ territory — not a moonshot, but not a dud either.

The Full Take
The Resistance Transport Pod is one of those sets that quietly does everything right without demanding your attention. The shape is chunky and purposeful, pulling straight from The Last Jedi's aesthetic in a way that feels complete rather than abbreviated. Three minifigs for a sub-$30 set was a good deal in 2017 and looks even better now. The build itself is compact but not thin — there's enough going on structurally to keep it interesting without overstaying its welcome. On the shelf it reads as a finished, display-worthy vessel rather than a playset pretending to be one. Value has held steady post-retirement, which says something about how well this one was received. A- is the right call — it's not a showstopper, but it earns every point.
