The large ship can only be used in ‘epic’ scale games, that is ones with a higher than usual point limit. So it may not get used in small quick games however it does come with an x-wing and heaps of new pilots from the movies such as Porkins! So if you factor that into the price the Transport is about the same price as medium ships.
Having said that the transports points cost is very very low, along with it's pilot skill. In this case that is amazing, because ships this size instantly destroy any enemy small or medium ships they end their move on. So you use it to smash into enemy ships!
It's also massive and looks fantastic. Ships of this scale add something new to the game and tend to be a bit expensive points wise. But not this one!
