LEGO Star Wars set 75183, Darth Vader Transformation, was released in 2017 with 290 pieces. It represents Darth Vader’s transformation in the Star Wars universe, with a scene focused on the characters and medical setting.

This model belongs to the LEGO Star Wars theme and depicts a specific moment from the license, when Anakin Skywalker becomes Darth Vader. Its subject is a compact narrative scene rather than a starship, ground vehicle, or broad location build.

The set contains 290 pieces and 6 minifigures or related characters: Darth Vader, Light Nougat Skin, Emperor Palpatine, Tan Skin (19888 Cape), Anakin Skywalker, Transformation, White Pupils, Medical Droid, FX-Series Medical Assistant Droid, and Prowler 1000 Exploration Droid. The selection keeps the focus on the transformation and the medical environment around it.

It suits collectors and Star Wars fans who want a displayable Darth Vader scene or a small play setting built around a character moment. Within LEGO Star Wars, it sits apart from vehicle based sets by concentrating on identity, staging, and the transition from Anakin Skywalker to Darth Vader.
