In just two weeks, you’ll be able to get your hands on LEGO’s latest in its lineup of giant, adult-targeted kits. The R2-D2 model will launch on May 1, with 2,315 bricks for you to build the perfect 12-inch droid.
According to LEGO, this premium design is packed with authentic details, including a retractable mid-leg, rotating head, opening and extendable front hatches, a periscope that can be pulled up and turned, and Luke Skywalker’s lightsaber hidden in a compartment in its head. It also comes with a buildable stand and information plaque, so you can put your masterpiece on display.
As per Gizmodo, this isn’t the first time LEGO has made a giant R2-D2; one was made nearly a decade ago. However, it’s definitely better-looking and decked out with all the bells and whistles. Plus, it’s going for US$199, which is rather affordable for a high-end LEGO collector’s kit.
