Available for LEGO VIP’s on 1st May and the rest of the galaxy on 4th May, take a closer look at the Ultimate Collector Series LEGO Star Wars Landspeeder.
The 1,890-piece LEGO brick model features a new molded cockpit element, a plaque with vehicle facts, and two minifigures for display: Luke Skywalker and an exclusive minifigure of C-3PO one gold and silver molded leg and a new side printing to arms and legs.
Expertly created by LEGO set designer César Carvalhosa Soares, the finished build measures 49 centimeters long and features the two-seater cockpit, the turbine engine without a cover, and the iconic curved cockpit windscreen to maintain screen-accuracy. “It’s been an amazing adventure creating Luke Skywalker’s Landspeeder in LEGO brick form,” says Soares. “We’ve ensured no detail has been forgotten and have even included some of the scratches. It is such an iconic vehicle in the Star Wars saga.”
Although LEGO has modeled the vehicle for other sets, this marks the first time that Luke’s landspeeder gets this higher level of detail and accuracy. “The final model is a great display piece where fans can also get the chance to have lots of fun while building it,” says Soares.
Exploring the galaxy since 1978, Mark wrote his first fan fiction in '81 and been a presence online since his first webpage Fanta War in 1996. He currently contributes to ILM.com and SkywalkerSound.com, having previously written for Star Wars Insider, StarWars.com, Star Wars Encyclopedia, Build The Millennium Falcon, Starburst Magazine, Geeky Monkey, TV Film Memorabilia and Model and Collectors Mart.
He is a four-time Star Wars Celebration Stage host (the only podcaster to have appeared on every Celebration podcast stage since it began in 2015), the Daily Content Manager of Fantha Tracks and the co-host of Making Tracks, Canon Fodder and Start Your Engines on Fantha Tracks Radio.
