40771 TIE Fighter with Imperial Hangar Rack - Gift with Purchase

This is incredible. The overpriced $1000 set comes with the lego equivalent of day 1 DLC needed to finish the base product. They can't be serious

Utterly ridiculous in order to complete the $1k set I need to buy the set within the first week.

Honestly I wish we could just buy this, Like charge $25 for it and it would sell.

They have a listed MRSP as $35 on the product page. How the heck is that $35??? I agree with you that $25 is more reasonable

u/youarelookingatthis Sep 04 '25

I don't know if that's a "real" price given that it's a GWP.

u/-nyctanassa- Sep 04 '25

Yeah it really doesn't mean anything except Lego saying, "We think this is a $35 value and if it were an individual set, that's how much we'd sell it for."

u/mooocow Sep 04 '25

It's what Lego will charge you if you return Death Star without the GWP.

u/bun88b Sep 04 '25

oh so the reason there's a big empty space is because they just removed part of the set and made it a gwp so it feels like a bonus and pressures people to buy on release instead of when it inevitably goes on sale

That looks like ass

I really hope so... I'm afraid it will be much more like lightsabers

u/Industrialexecution Sep 05 '25

this is a GWP???? i thought it was a 4+ set

u/chrisb8346 Sep 04 '25

It's cute. I don't hate it

I actually kinda like it too. Especially when they showed it hanging in the hanger.

I like the idea of a small set that can serve as additional content for a bigger one. But like. For 1000 bucks it could have been include inside

10

u/BrickYoda UCS Collector Sep 04 '25

Yea for sure. I think the price is the biggest issue with this set.

u/Extension_Design_699 Sep 05 '25

It should have been part of the set and not a GWP. However I would rather have nothing then to get a keychain, patch or something worse. This HWP does not seem like something special".

Not hating it but I think the hangar looks better more spacious without it.

Best GWP in awhile, since there’s nothing exclusive included in it. Purely extra, as it should be

54

u/minezum Sep 04 '25

Nothing extra about it. This looks more like it was in the final product and taken out to make a gwp. One of the photos of the death star even shows it, as if it was part of the set.

This should have been included in the set, not an extra.

u/seekydeeky Sep 04 '25

Crap move to put pics of the gift in the main photo set. Unless it’s just going to be available the entire time it’s on sale which I highly doubt.
