Five minifigs in a $79.99 box is the kind of lineup that makes you double-check the price tag. The Rathtar itself is a wild build, and the scene has enough chaos energy to hold up on a shelf or a bedroom floor.

The Full Take
The minifig haul here is the headline — five characters including Han Solo and a Rathtar creature that's more sculptural oddity than standard LEGO® build. For a 2017 release at $79.99, the price was sharp, and the secondary market has rewarded patient holders accordingly. The Rathtar's spherical, tentacled form is unlike most Star Wars builds in the lineup, which gives it a strange kind of shelf presence even if it won't anchor a diorama. The play scenario — people getting eaten by a rolling monster ball — lands with kids in a way that clean architectural sets never do. Where it falls short is the overall 'what you get' beyond the minifigs: the environment feels thin, more staging than world. Still, the combination of a unique creature build, a stacked character lineup, and a price that was fair from day one makes this one of the more well-rounded Force Awakens-era sets.
