The new 4,700-piece Lego creation is the largest Star Wars-themed set to date and will let you finally recreate the epic opening scene of A New Hope in your living room. The Imperial Star Destroyer Ultimate Collector Series item # 75252 is a 4,784-piece set that captures authentic details of the starship as it appeared in the opening scene of Star Wars A New Hope.
On the stand, the model measures over 17 inches high, 43 inches long and 26 inches wide. Think about that for a moment it’s dangerously close to four feet long!
The Devastator set has tons of details from the movie, including swiveling guns, a tilting radar disk, huge engine exhausts and intricate surface detailing. It also comes with a scale version of the Tantive IV ship used by Leia to try and escape with the plans for the Death Star, which can be built separately and attached to the main model so you can relive the Rebel ship being captured by the Empire.
There are also some all-important underlings for you to boss around, as the set comes with imperial officer and imperial crewmember minifigures, plus two blaster pistols. If you want to show off your 17-inch high, 26-inch wide creation once it’s built, it comes with a display stand with an informational plaque.
The set goes on sale on October 1st, and will cost $700 in the US and £650 in the UK. This will go great with my Lego millennium falcon time to start saving.
