Most Amazing StarWarsThing? 23 Oct, 2002, 15:42 / 9 comments

By Spaff


Today I stumbled upon a truly amazing thing. Now you may remember a while back, maybe 2 years, Mixnmojo.com in all it's wise glory decided to review StarWars LEGO models. Oh! We had X-Wings and Snow Speeders, jet bikes and crappy Sith bikes....

But never, in my wildest dreams, could I truly conceive that this beast - this ultimate Starwars LEGO beast - could ever have been created.

Yes that's right, whilst browsing through the LEGO catalogue that arrived this morning I stumbled upon this: A 96cm long, 44cm high and 60cm wide model of a Star Destoyer.

I would gladly sell my Huz?'s Grandmother to get ahold of this beast, and as a result, for the next few weeks I will be lobbying all of the LFN partners to purchase one of these on our company budget so I we can review it. ...and then lose it.

Sign the petition comments thread! :P

...Okay, you don't like Star Wars news do you... Well fine then just pretend this whole news piece was about this guitar tab for the Monkey Island theme tune. You'd like that wouldn't you?!

    I can't figure myself playing with that star destroyer.. I mean how the hell are you supposed to hold that in one hand, a blockade runner in the other and at the same time make wooshing sounds.
    And at that price, you'd better be able to open it and place figures inside.
    Oh and btw, I'm still waiting for a DeathStar playset for lego in true scale.

    How the blazes does that thing stay upright, is my question. How would one display it?
