<div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class="sharethis-inline-share-buttons" ></div><p>Of course, there&#8217;s one thing that Disney knows quite a bit about: overcharging customers. Here&#8217;s a batch of toys and collectibles that you should absolutely avoid, unless you like using stacks of one hundred dollar bills for blaster practice.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">$28,500 Imperial Star Wars Watch</h3>
<p><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/devon-works-star-wars-watch.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-20695" src="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/devon-works-star-wars-watch-1024x697.jpg" loading="lazy" alt="devon-works-star-wars-watch" width="620" height="422" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/devon-works-star-wars-watch-1024x697.jpg 1024w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/devon-works-star-wars-watch-300x204.jpg 300w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/devon-works-star-wars-watch.jpg 1920w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px" /></a></p>
<p>Designed to combine elements from Darth Vader&#8217;s helmet and gloves as well as a TIE Fighter and the Imperial crest, this <a href="https://www.devonworks.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">horrifically overpriced wristwatch</a> requires a $2,500 down payment just for the privilege of paying another $26,000 on delivery. But hey, they are throwing in some TIE Fighter cufflinks with a watch that costs more than some midsize sedans.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">$4,500 to $6,500 LEGO 1st Edition Millennium Falcon</h3>
<p><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/LEGO-Millennium-Falcon-original.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-20701" src="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/LEGO-Millennium-Falcon-original-1024x722.jpg" loading="lazy" alt="LEGO-Millennium-Falcon-original" width="620" height="437" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/LEGO-Millennium-Falcon-original-1024x722.jpg 1024w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/LEGO-Millennium-Falcon-original-300x212.jpg 300w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/LEGO-Millennium-Falcon-original.jpg 1500w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px" /></a></p>
<p>Regularly <a href="https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&amp;_sacat=0&amp;_nkw=SEALED%20LEGO%20Millennium%20Falcon%2010179" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">selling on eBay</a> (<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Lego-Ultimate-Collectors-Millennium-Falcon/dp/B0017V21EY" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">or Amazon</a>) for several thousand dollars, the original LEGO Millennium Falcon sports more than 5,000 parts with sections such as a rotating radar dish, extending boarding ramp and detachable cockpit with all the original trilogy mini-figures. While <a href="https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Millennium-Falcon-75105-Building/dp/B00WI0PJE2/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">the new version</a> is a far less complicated build, it&#8217;s also about 3% the current cost of the original version.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">$4,000 Millennium Falcon Star Wars Bed</h3>
<p><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/star-wars-bed.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-20694" src="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/star-wars-bed-1024x576.jpg" loading="lazy" alt="star-wars-bed" width="620" height="349" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/star-wars-bed-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/star-wars-bed-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/star-wars-bed.jpg 1536w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px" /></a></p>
<p>This <a href="https://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/star-wars-bed/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">insanely priced twin bed</a> at Pottery Barn is crafted out of hardwood and includes a faux control panel with all the knobs and gauges on the Millennium Falcon. We recommend saving your money and use Instructables to build you own Star Wars bed. Perhaps the <a href="https://www.instructables.com/id/Star-Wars-AT-AT-Imperial-Walker-Loft-Bed/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">AT-AT Imperial Walker Loft Bed</a> or this <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhM_1ar0-bQ" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Star Wars X-Wing bed</a>.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">$1,500 to $2,000 LEGO Star Wars Death Star II</h3>
<p><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/lego-death-star-blank.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21593" src="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/lego-death-star-blank.jpg" loading="lazy" alt="lego-death-star-blank" width="650" height="496" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/lego-death-star-blank.jpg 650w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/lego-death-star-blank-300x229.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Selling in brand new condition for $1,500 or more on eBay frequently, this highly complex build of more than 3,400 pieces ranks up there with the original LEGO Star Destroyer in both complexity and cost. Interestingly, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Star-Wars-Death-10188/dp/B002EEP3NO/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">the new version</a> can be purchased for 25 percent or less than the cost of this model.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">$1,300 Star Wars Stormtrooper Costume</h3>
<p><a href="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/storm_trooper_costume.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-20699" src="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/storm_trooper_costume.jpg" loading="lazy" alt="storm_trooper_costume" width="700" height="450" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/storm_trooper_costume.jpg 700w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/storm_trooper_costume-300x193.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></a></p>
<p>Probably forcing you to wear this for the next 10 to 15 years as a primary Halloween costume to justify the cost, the <a href="https://www.thinkgeek.com/product/ef98/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">super expensive Stormtrooper costume</a> includes EVA molded-pieces, a two-piece helmet and a black polyester bodysuit to complete the Imperial ensemble.</p>
