Theme
Star Wars
Year Released
N/A - This specific all-white variant with detailed printing is not an official LEGO production.
Rarity
Unique / Custom. While official white Vaders (like the 2009 Anniversary version) exist, this specific design with realistic chest-panel printing and detailed arm printing is a custom-designed piece.
Head
Standard Darth Vader helmet mold in white. Inside likely contains a standard flesh or grey Vader head, though in many customs, the helmet is the primary focal point.
Torso
White torso with highly detailed printing mimicking the standard black Darth Vader life support system, including the chest box (with blue and red buttons) and belt details in grey, blue, and green. Features silver arm printing.
Legs
White legs with black and grey line printing representing the suit folds and greaves. Hip piece is white.
Accessories
Trans-Light Blue lightsaber blade with a metallic silver hilt; white fabric starched-style cape.
Color Scheme
Monochromatic White with metallic silver accents and primary-colored control panel indicators (blue, green, red).
Printing Details
High-fidelity pad printing or high-quality UV printing. Notable for 360-degree detail including arm prints which are rare on standard older LEGO Star Wars figures.
Variants
Inspired by the 'Star Wars Infinites: Return of the Jedi' comic where Vader is redeemed and dons white armor. Distinguished from the 2009 Lego Chrome/White promotional figures by use of modern printing.
Condition Notes
Custom figures use standard ABS plastic; check for print fading and cape fraying. The white color is highly susceptible to UV yellowing over time.
Estimated Value
$20.00 - $60.00 USD depending on the custom creator (e.g., Christo, Citizen Brick, or secondary market printers). Non-official status limits its growth compared to official 'White Vaders'.
Price (New)
N/A; typically sold as individual custom figures for a premium over standard retail prices.
Compatible Sets
None (Custom). Complements sets like 75291 Death Star Final Duel for a 'What If' display.
Character Background
Based on the Star Wars Infinites comic book series where Anakin Skywalker survives the second Death Star's destruction and joins the Rebellion, trading his black life-support suit for white armor symbolizes his return to the Light Side.
Design Notes
Utilizes the classic two-piece Vader helmet mold (or the older one-piece depending on the custom base) cast in white resin or plastic. The lightsaber is specifically blue to signal his Jedi status.
Similar Minifigures
2009 10th Anniversary Darth Vader (White) - extremely rare; Standard Darth Vader (sw0209); Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker.
Collectibility
High for 'Purist Custom' collectors and fans of the Legends/EU timeline. Low for 'Investment-Only' collectors who strictly follow official LEGO cataloging.
History
Fan-made response to the lack of an official LEGO 'Redeemed Vader' figure. The 'Infinites' concept has remained popular in the LEGO community for over a decade.
Interesting Facts
The official 2009 LEGO white Vader was just a 'test' or promotional color, whereas this custom version specifically represents the character from the comic lore.
Display Suggestions
Display in a clear acrylic case (as shown) to prevent dust and yellowing. Best placed alongside Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia to represent the 'Redeemed Family' timeline.
Modification Potential
Excellent. Parts can be swapped with chrome Hilts or different shades of blue blades to match specific comic appearances.
Overall Assessment
A stunning high-quality custom interpretation of a fan-favorite 'What-If' character. It offers better detail than official older Vader figures but lacks the financial 'floor' of an official LEGO-stamped product.
