This 1,890-piece model kit is part of Lego’s Ultimate Collector Series, which is a subset of Star Wars Lego sets with more intricate and realistic designs. Ultimate Collector Series Star Wars Lego sets aren’t discounted often, but you can save on not one, but two of them at Amazon. The 6,187-piece Star Wars Razor Crest UCS is discounted by a staggering $184, dropping the price from $600 to $416. Yes, $416 is still a lot of money, but to be fair it is 6,187 pieces.

This highly detailed model of Luke’s ground-based vehicle measure 19 inches long once fully assembled. While George Lucas and his film crew needed reflective material, gelatin on the camera lens, and shadow effects to create the illusion that the landspeeder was hovering, you’ll be able to achieve the same effect with a display stand. It also comes with a plaque with key details about the Landspeeder and two Star Wars minifigures: Luke Skywalker (naturally) and C-3PO. They can stand next to the plaque or sit in the cockpit.
Since the Landspeeder is in the Ultimate Collector Series, there’s a level of detail here not found on most Star Wars Lego sets. Custom-molded parts give it a distinct look, even just at first glance. There are lots of small flourishes, too, including a very tiny dashboard display with actual information on it, an accurate windscreen, and turbines that look just about as real as possible when made out of plastic. And yes, just like in the movie, one of the port turbines doesn’t have a cover, exposing an intricate web of wiring.
The Landspeeder, and Ultimate Collector Series Star Wars builds in general, are more involved than many other Lego sets. But if you’ve built your fair share of Lego sets and love Star Wars, there’s a good chance you’ll really enjoy piecing together this stunning recreation of the best ground-based vehicle on Tatooine.
And speaking of really involved builds, take a look at The Razor Crest from The Mandalorian below.
$416 (was $600)
If you want a remarkable centerpiece for your living room or home theater, the Razor Crest is a great option now that it’s on sale. Not only does it faithfully recreate the starship from The Mandalorian, but it comes with a small display plaque and minifigures for The Mandalorian, the Mythrol, Kulil, and Grogu. The completed model features sleeping quarters, various side hatches, and cargo compartments. There’s even a weapons cabinet and carbon-freezing chamber–and since the top is removable (along with its engines), you can easily view this detailed interior. At over 6,000 pieces, this is a great project to get you through the winter.
If you’re unfamiliar with the Ultimate Collector Series, it’s a subseries within the sprawling Star Wars Lego universe reserved for only the most intricate, detailed, and authentic builds.
