High demand among army builders and Prequel-era collectors; value has stayed stable and slightly rising post-retirement.

Represents the transition period where LEGO Star Wars moving toward greater screen accuracy before the 2020 'All-in-One' style consolidation.
Interesting Facts
The 327th is one of the few legions where standard troopers were depicted with kamas and pauldrons in the films, though this figure only prints the kama detail.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in a Battle of Saleucami or Felucia diorama; pairs perfectly with an Aayla Secura minifigure (sw0807).
Modification Potential
Excellent base for adding custom cloth kamas and pauldrons to create a more screen-accurate Commander Bly.
Overall Assessment
A solid, highly desirable mid-tier Star Wars figure with Great printing and battalion-specific accuracy. Rating: 8/10.
