Doesn’t actually have the most pieces, that’d be the World Map, but that’s almost 11,000 studs and a vast amount single studs so this one, over 9,000 “proper pieces”, well mostly, snags the title. Its $1,000, will likely sell out as hardcore AFOLS and Star Wars fans trade in those sets they’ve hoarded for bragging rights as they bag this one. Set 75419 pays homage to all three of the original Trilogy films – The model isn’t a perfect sphere like its on-screen inspiration but instead assembles as a cross section of an armed and operational battle station we first saw in “Star Wars: A New Hope.” Completed it stands at 28 inches tall and 32 inches wide with over 15 rooms from the iconic trash compactor setting from the original flick all the way to the showdown in the Emperor’s Throne Room in “Return of the Jedi.” Add in a few hidden rooms with Easter eggs and it is an impressive set. More slice than star though?
Just worth us flagging up with Gingerbread ATAT, an altogether more wallet friendly £55 and out in a few weeks at LEGO.com
