LEGO <\/a>has officially taken aim at your bank account with its newest and most ambitious Star Wars <\/a>set to date. Say hello to the Ultimate Collector Series Death Star, a mind-blowing 9,023-piece behemoth that doesn\u2019t just build a space station, it builds an experience. With a price tag of $1,000, this isn\u2019t just a model, it\u2019s a commitment.<\/p>\n

Standing at a towering 20.6 inches tall and stretching nearly 19 inches wide, the UCS Death Star is LEGO\u2019s largest Star Wars set ever released. But this isn\u2019t just a display piece. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s a fully loaded playset packed with detailed diorama-style rooms pulled straight from A New Hope and Return of the Jedi. Whether you want to disable the tractor beam as Obi-Wan, swing across the Death Star chasm as Luke and Leia, or get crushed in the trash compactor, the set brings those legendary moments to life in brick form.<\/p>\n

And just when you think LEGO couldn\u2019t possibly cram in more, they throw in Palpatine\u2019s throne room, the Imperial boardroom, and because LEGO loves a good laugh, a secret hot tub room complete with a Hot Tub Stormtrooper.<\/p>\n

Included with the set are 38 minifigures, featuring first-time appearances of characters like Galen Erso, an Imperial Dignitary, and that jacuzzi-loving Stormtrooper. Of course, Darth Vader is here too, ready to deliver a brick-built Force choke to your wallet.<\/p>\n

The UCS Death Star launches for LEGO Insiders on October 1, with a wide release following on October 4. It\u2019s not cheap, but for hardcore fans and collectors, it\u2019s a galaxy-sized centerpiece worth every Imperial credit.<\/p>\n

So yeah, it may cost you a month\u2019s rent or your next vacation, but come on… it’s the freaking Death Star.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LEGO has officially taken aim at your bank account with its newest and most ambitious Star Wars set…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":142367,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[49,48,75,337],"class_list":["post-142366","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-movies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/142366","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=142366"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/142366\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/142367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=142366"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=142366"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=142366"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
