One of the best Star Wars Lego vehicle model kits is on sale for a stellar price at Amazon and Walmart. Luke Skywalker’s iconic Landspeeder X-34 is discounted to $175 in the retailers’ early Black Friday 2024 sales. 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, so this deal, which slashes $65 from its $240 list price, isn’t likely to remain in stock for long.
Luke Skywalker’s Landspeeder – Lego Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series
$175 ($240)
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.
