LEGO Star Wars set 9515, The Malevolence, represents the Separatist cruiser associated with The Clone Wars stories. Released in 2012, it contains 1101 pieces and belongs to the Star Wars theme, with a character selection tied to the ship and its conflict.
The Malevolence depicts a large Separatist vessel from the Star Wars universe. In the LEGO Star Wars range, it sits among sets connected with The Clone Wars and gives the Separatist side a substantial ship subject rather than a small vehicle or ground based scene.
The model focuses on an elongated cruiser profile, while the figure selection places Separatist leaders, battle droids and opposing characters in the same set.
This set suits LEGO Star Wars collectors who want a Separatist capital ship for display, as well as builders interested in story based play around The Clone Wars. Compared with many Star Wars sets built around fighters or individual locations, The Malevolence is defined by its ship scale and its strong Separatist identity.
