Earlier this 12 months, Lego and Lucasfilm lifted the lid on Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy, a what-if fashion Lego collection that takes the already high-zaniness of many of the animated Lego specials and cranks all the pieces up even additional, in a world the place heroes grow to be villains, vice versa, and, after all, there’s Jar Jar being a more literal Phantom Menace. Now, the collection is getting a couple of Lego units to go along with the launch—and Jar Jar is alongside for the journey.
Right now Lego revealed two Rebuild the Galaxy Lego units as a consequence of arrive in August, a month forward of the miniseries’ arrival on Disney+ September 13. They’re each fairly dear units, even for Star Wars. The primary, retailing for $110, is a standard X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter two-pack with a mash-up twist, letting you cut up the S-Foils and panels from every ship and put them on the principle physique of the opposite, creating your very personal equal to the old “Uglies” of the Expanded Universe—mash-up starfighters constructed out of scraps and a dream. Coming with 4 minifigures within the type of a generic X-Wing and TIE pilot, Rebuild the Galaxy protagonists Yesi Scala and Sig Greebling, and an additional, Lego-themed Astromech named (after all) L3-G0, it’s the one which most likely greatest displays the topsy-turvy nature of the particular present itself.
It’s the second set, retailing for $180, that’ll most likely be of extra curiosity to Star Wars followers past the present, nonetheless: the Darkish Falcon. A whole re-do of Lego’s final minifigure-scale Millennium Falcon, the Rise of Skywalker iteration launched in 2019, however given a Darkish Facet-inspired black-and-red colour scheme, the brand new set has a suitably reworked inside, together with a Sith Throne, a jail, command heart, and… an leisure space? Dangerous guys want enjoyable too, I assume. However other than the Falcon itself, the draw here’s a bunch of enjoyable minifigures. Only one is an authentic character, the Darth model of Rebuild the Galaxy’s Dev—however the remaining are wild twists on beloved Star Wars heroes, from a relaxing out Seashore Luke and a Star Wars Infinities-inspired, all-white Jedi Vader, to a trio of shock villains, together with a Bounty Hunter C-3PO, the aforementioned Darth Jar Jar, and the first-ever minifigure of Darth Rey, impressed by the dark vision glimpsed in The Rise of Skywalker.
