Lego’s largest and most detailed X-Wing has landed for $239.99
Lego releases a brand new X-wing model just in time for May 4, known as “May the Fourth” in Star Wars terms. The $239.99 model is available to order now if you have a Lego VIP member (it’s free to sign up) but everyone else can buy one starting at 12pm EDT, May 4.
This is the sixth iteration of Luke Skywalker’s Red Five X-Wing, and it’s Lego’s largest and most detailed version of the legendary starfighter. The 1,949-piece model is 21.5 inches long, making it more than seven times the size of the original 263-piece set that came out in 1999.
