    A Wonderful Little Death Star

    Written by (AFOL) in United States,

    This was the highest tier gift for May the 4th 2023, and I got to say it's a lot better than what other people are giving it credit for. The 40th anniversary of the Return of the Jedi plaque that is printed, and the over all build is fun. Using a little grass block for the lasers meeting in the middle is quite creative. The panels are also very satisfying, and when all put together. The thing that really makes this stand out for me though is the throne room 'easter egg' that they threw in. Being able to see little studs of Luke, Darth Vader and the Emperor really goes a long way, and makes the build very endearing. It also lets it be displayed well next to the Throne Room set as well as the Executor that came out at the same time, with a similar Easter egg of studs showing the meeting of bounty hunters with Darth Vader.

    It does seem as though this set ran our very fast on the website with how flooded it was for orders, and some people really hoarded these. I'm hoping that in future years, Lego addresses this better so that these limited sets aren't taken advantage of by scalpers.

    I got this set as a gift with purchase from LEGO website for May 4th. It's a great little LEGO Death Star with the laser firing ring and micro emperors thrown room and the Death Star's main reactor. Overall a nice LEGO promotional set.

    The free May the Fourth promo is very nice and has a quite simple build that looks very good and includes a printed Return of the Jedi plaque which is a nice touch. Pairs very well with the executor released at the same time.
