The LEGO Razor Crest set has been forced to change its name due to a copyright claim on the name ‘Razor Crest’ from a German company who produce LEGO compatible sets.
Apparently, Lucasfilm does not own the trademark for the name Razor Crest, in Europe at least, which allowed German LEGO-compatible toy maker Modbrix to claim it back in January for its own, unlicensed, version of the spacecraft. StoneWars published a lot of well-researched information about this earlier in the month.
At first, it was thought that this would affect Europe only, but the product page at LEGO.com in the US and Canadian shops has been removed and is currently leading to a 404 which suggests a wider problem. In Europe, it’s been reinstated with the revised name and description, and in Australia and New Zealand it’s still called The Razor Crest.
Here’s the new product description for the renamed set.
Relive bounty hunter The Mandalorian and the Child’s battles against Scout Trooper and other enemies with The Mandalorian Bounty Hunter Transport (75292) LEGO Star Wars building toy for kids. This brick-built armoured transport shuttle features a cargo hold with opening sides that double as access ramps and carbonite bounty elements inside, a dual LEGO minifigure cockpit, spring-loaded shooters, escape pod and more authentic details to inspire creative play.
Kids can role-play as heroic warrior The Mandalorian and play out action-packed Star Wars: The Mandalorian scenes with this detailed, LEGO brick model of The Mandalorian Bounty Hunter Transport (75292) starship.
This fun buildable toy includes 4 LEGO minifigures: The Mandalorian, Greef Karga, Scout Trooper and the Child, plus an IG-11 LEGO figure, all with cool weapons to role-play exciting battles.
The transport ship features a dual LEGO minifigure cockpit, 2 spring-loaded shooters, cargo hold with opening sides/access ramps and carbonite bounty elements inside, sleeping area and detachable escape pod for creative play.
This 1,023-piece construction playset offers a challenging build and combines brilliantly with other LEGO Star Wars sets. It makes a super Christmas gift or birthday present for boys and girls aged 10+.
The Mandalorian Bounty Hunter Transport dreadnought measures over 5.5” (14cm) high, 15” (38cm) long and 11” (28cm) wide. It makes an eye-catching Star Wars: The Mandalorian display piece when it is not being used to transport vital cargo!
