Printing Details
Pad printing over transparent red plastic; high detail on torso jackets and leg straps, mimicking official LEGO Star Wars pilot printing.
Variants
This appears to be a 'Trans-Red' variant of a Star Wars Resistance pilot or character like Poe Dameron or Snap Wexley, likely a prototype or custom production.
Condition Notes
Watch for brittle plastic (typical of transparent LEGO parts), scratches on the transparent finish, and fading of the torso printing.
Estimated Value
$50.00 - $300.00 depending on provenance (higher if a confirmed factory prototype; lower if an aftermarket knock-off).
Price (New)
N/A (Not sold as a standalone retail product in this configuration).
Compatible Sets
Potentially related to LEGO Star Wars sets 75102, 75149, or 75125 (Resistance X-Wing series).
Character Background
The printing represents a Star Wars Resistance pilot character, though the transparent red molding suggests a 'Hologram' or 'Glow' variant not appearing in the films.
Design Notes
Interesting use of traditional 2015-era pilot torso and leg graphics on a non-standard transparent red plastic mold.
Similar Minifigures
Transparent versions of C-3PO, Darth Vader, or the Holograph figures commonly found in early 2000s sets.
Collectibility
High demand among niche collectors of 'Transparent' or 'Prototype' LEGO figures; lower demand for standard theme collectors.
History
Transparent red figures became popular in the collector community via third-party providers like 'Christo' or factory 'test' leaks in the late 2010s.
Interesting Facts
Authentic transparent LEGO parts usually lack the same 'clutch power' as opaque parts due to the poly-carbonate material properties.
Display Suggestions
Display with a back-light or on a light-up brick to emphasize the transparency of the red plastic.
Modification Potential
Excellent for 'Force Ghost' MOCs or artistic dioramas involving hologram transmissions.
Overall Assessment
A striking and unusual figure that is likely a high-quality aftermarket custom or a rare factory error/test run piece; highly desirable for specialists.
