Lego Star Wars UCS Death Star (9,023 pieces)
The highly anticipated Lego Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series (UCS) Death Star has officially launched for Lego Insiders! This massive undertaking, revealed earlier this month, is comprised of a staggering 9,023 pieces, making it the most extensive Star Wars Lego set ever created under the set number 75419. Now that its Superlaser is ready, prepare for this impressive display piece to make a significant dent in your funds. Priced at $1,000, this Death Star stands as the priciest Lego creation to date. Luckily, early birds get a limited-time bonus set.
Through October 7, purchasers can snag a complimentary TIE Fighter and Imperial Hangar Rack set. While the Death Star opens to all buyers on October 4th, it’s worth considering joining Lego’s Insiders program for free. Signing up allows you to purchase it before general availability while also accumulating valuable rewards points.
The UCS Death Star stays true to the original design featured in Episode IV: A New Hope. In line with contemporary UCS builds, intricate detailing is the focus of this set. Its elaborate construction showcases many recognizable rooms, instantly familiar to fans. The model features interactive and adjustable elements like a functional elevator, the infamous trash compactor scene, the powerful Superlaser, and a brick-built Imperial Shuttle boasting adjustable wings.
Lego has made sure you can recreate memorable Episode IV moments by including a whopping 36 minifigures plus two Lego droid figures. To emphasize the sheer scope, no previous Lego set has included as many as 38 figures!
The Death Star’s interior offers ample space to house all included figures and potentially more. Once completely built, the UCS Death Star commands attention with dimensions of 27.5 inches in height, 31 inches in width, and a depth of 10.5 inches.
Examine the UCS Death Star closely below. If you’d rather not invest $1,000 in a Lego Star Wars set this holiday season, take a look at the utterly charming Gingerbread AT-AT Walker, available for a more budget-friendly $60 and featuring Darth Vader brandishing a candy cane.
