LEGO is making a safe bet that the most dedicated Star Wars fans will be willing to pony up $1,000 for its most expensive set to date, a 9,023-piece, painstakingly detailed Death Star.
The collector’s set contains enough sections to recreate unforgettable scenes from Star Wars: A New Hope to Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, including locations such as Emperor Palpatine’s throne room, Princess Leia’s cell, and the Imperial shuttle hangar.
It comes with 38 minifigures, including Luke Skywalker (as both a Jedi and disguised Stormtrooper), Han Solo, Princess Leia, Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine, and more, giving Star Wars fans equal opportunity to reenact the lightsaber duel between Darth Vader and Obi-Wan Kenobi or swing across the retractable bridge with Luke and Leia.
