This 1,555-piece set turns the scary wedge-shaped cruiser from A New Hope into a brick model. The size is just right so it doesn\u2019t take up too much space on your display and the finished model is 18 inches long and just over 6 inches tall so it stands out on a bookshelf without taking up an entire wall. LEGO made this version with a hidden carry handle that folds into the hull so that this way, younger builders can swoop it around the room during imaginary space battles without it falling apart in their hands.<\/p>\n
The real magic happens inside the hull where LEGO packed in several rooms that show off the Empire\u2019s harsh military style: There is a real bridge with command stations, a separate control room with technical panels, and even a break room because Stormtroopers need coffee breaks too. The armory has weapons for the crew, and the cargo area has the glowing Kyber Crystal pieces and thermal detonators that refer to deeper Star Wars lore.<\/p>\n
These little things on the inside turn the build from a simple display piece into something you can actually explore and move around, which keeps the fun going long after the building is done. The engineering also makes sure that you can get to these areas without having to take down the whole building. The hinged panels swing open easily and lock back into place securely.<\/p>\n
There are seven mini-figures in the box, and the main one is Darth Vader in full black armor and a cape. There\u2019s also an Imperial Gunner, an Imperial Navy Trooper, and Commander Praji and a standard Stormtrooper is the backbone of the Empire\u2019s forces. The set also comes with a 25th anniversary edition of Cal Kestis from the Jedi video game series: This is a one-of-a-kind collectible that won\u2019t be available in future releases.<\/p>\n
This $40 discount is a big deal for a high-end LEGO set of this size and difficulty, especially since Star Wars collaborations don\u2019t usually get discounts this big outside of big shopping events. You\u2019re paying about $0,076 per piece, which is much less than the usual ratio that LEGO charges for licensed themes.<\/p>\n
