26 pieces and whatever they charged for this thing — the Probe Droid deserves better than a polybag afterthought. Cute desk piece, brutal price grade, basically nothing to build.

Will you love it?B-The Probe Droid silhouette reads well enough for a desk nod, but don't expect a satisfying build.
Holds its value?C-Secondary market is flat — polybags can pop, but this one has too many rivals to climb.

The Full Take
The Probe Droid is one of Star Wars' most iconic silhouettes, and this polybag at least captures enough of it to be recognizable on a shelf. But 26 pieces for the retail ask is a hard pill — the price grade bottoms out at F for good reason. The build takes maybe four minutes, which isn't inherently disqualifying for a polybag, but there's no clever technique to redeem the experience. Value retention is middling; polybags can hold or climb, but this one has too much competition from better Star Wars minibuilds to stand out in the secondary market. What you're left with is a C+ overall: recognizable enough to smile at, not substantial enough to seek out at full price.
