28 pieces, zero minifigs, and a price tag that belongs on a set three times its size — the TIE Striker has no business existing at this price point.
The parts alone are worth about 50% of the street price — the basis for this F price read.
OverpricedYou're paying well above the parts' value — $2 of parts for a $3 price.
The TIE Striker is one of Star Wars' cooler ship designs, and LEGO® absolutely squanders it here. Twenty-eight pieces gets you a micro-scale silhouette that's more suggestion than model — the kind of thing you'd find in a blind bag, not on a shelf with a price tag attached. There are no minifigs to soften the blow, no clever build to make the parts count feel intentional, and nothing that screams 'I needed to own this.' It scores an F overall, and that's not harsh — it's math. The Striker deserved a real set. This isn't it.
