List it individually on BrickLink with the ID sw0981 — buyers search by part number and will find it. Include clear photos showing condition. At $28.11, it's worth the time to list separately rather than bundling. If you have several Star Wars figures, listing them all at once saves on the per-item effort.
Does condition matter for Darth Vader (Bacta Tank)?
