LEGO Star Wars set 75534 Darth Vader depicts the Sith Lord as a buildable figure. Released in 2018, it belongs to the Star Wars theme and contains 168 pieces, with no separate minifigures listed.
Darth Vader is one of the central characters of the Star Wars license, and set 75534 presents him as a constructed model rather than a standard minifigure. The subject is defined by the black armor, helmet, and imposing Imperial presence associated with the character.
The build is therefore focused on the character itself, using parts to create the body, armor, and visible details of Darth Vader. No additional character is listed as part of the set.
This set suits Star Wars collections that focus on characters, either for display or for play centered on a single recognizable figure. Within the Star Wars theme, it sits apart from ships and location based models by emphasizing a protagonist’s appearance rather than a vehicle or scene. It can be displayed on its own or placed alongside other character focused builds from the same license.
