This Lego Star Destroyer is going to bring peace and security to my living room — especially thanks to $50 off in the Prime Day sales
"Two fighters against a Star Destroyer!?" I shout, as I cruise a pair of X-wings towards my latest purchase — this Lego Star Destroyer, straight out of the original trilogy. I got it for cheap, just like you can, thanks to the Prime Day sales.
The Lego Star Wars Imperial Star Destroyer is now $110 at Amazon, down $50 from full price. Perfect for a Star Wars fan, be they 7 or 77. Or 30. I have to justify it somehow, right?
Take over the galaxy with this Star Destroyer Lego set — or, at least, the living room floor. This hulking mass of Lego contains 1555 pieces, and includes minifigures of Darth Vader, Commander Praji, an Imperial Gunner, Imperial Navy Trooper, a Stormtrooper, and a special edition Kal Kestis. This $50 saving brings the Star Destroyer down to its lowest price ever.
This version of the Star Destroyer is a mid-sized option, but it still packs in plenty of features. There's a small interior, for example, so you can play around with Darth Vader's Bacta tank or tell the bridge crew to "power up the turbo laser batteries."
These are turbo Laser batteries that can move, thanks to some very clever Lego engineering. They pivot from side to side, swiveling in place to aim at any pesky rebels that might be coming to help their pathetic excuse for an incursion on Yavin IV.
There's a built-in carrying handle as well, so you can swoosh it around the house and really get on your parents'/significant others' last nerve. Just remember that Star Destroyers have a habit of crashing into each other, and you'll be fine.
The selection of minifigures here is fun is also fun. There's the expected Imperial garrison, although I'd like more than the single Stormtrooper. Darth Vader obviously makes an appearance as well. The Kal Kestis figure is the highlight, although I'm not sure if the star of Jedi Survivor ever actually set foot on this class of Star Destroyer.
You can now bring your own brand of Imperial terror to your living room thanks to this $50 discount. Perfect for the kid in your life, whether they're 9 or... older.
There are plenty more deals to be had this Prime Day — make sure you check out our Prime Day live blog to make sure you're staying on top of all the latest sales and offers.
