Why is LEGO Republic Striker-class Starfighter so expensive?
Republic Striker-class Starfighter was released in 2012 and has since retired. Once LEGO stops producing a set, the only supply is what is already in circulation, so sealed copies in good condition compete for a shrinking pool of stock. That scarcity, not the parts, is what moves the price.
