⏳ Retired

The Trade Federation MTT (7184-1) presents an interesting investment opportunity. As a set from the early 2000s, it benefits from nostalgia and scarcity. Its association with Star Wars Episode I also adds to its appeal, given the enduring popularity of the franchise. The set's age means that finding complete, unopened versions is increasingly difficult, which can drive up prices.
