LEGO Goes Big for Prime Day, Star Wars Imperial Star Destroyer Set Drops to a New All-Time Low
LEGO's Star Wars line has consistently been among its most popular, after Harry Potter, in terms of fan support and sales. During Prime Day this week, Amazon is offering deep discounts on all of its LEGO Star Wars lines but one set outsells the others: the Imperial Star Destroyer set. Rarely discounted in price and always in demand, this set is now the top-selling toy construction set and the top-selling LEGO set of any type. Right now, the LEGO Star Wars Imperial Star Destroyer can be obtained for just $111, down from its regular price of $159. This huge 30% discount marks a new all-time low and with over 10,000 units sold in the past month alone, this set inevitably might sell out soon. See at Amazon With 1,555 pieces, the Imperial Star Destroyer model rises above 6 inches tall, 18 inches long, and 11 inches deep when assembled, a complete showstopper for any space. The actual process of building is rewarding and enjoyable, hours of creative pleasure watching as you bring the iconic starship to life one brick at a time. There's also a mind-blowing selection of mini-figures: They are Darth Vader, Commander Praji, an Imperial Gunner, an Imperial Navy Trooper, a Stormtrooper, and a special 25th anniversary version mini-figure of Cal Kestis so making this set a dream come true for fans and collectors. Each mini-figure is packed full of authentic details and the set's interior is just as satisfying including a bridge, command room, break room, armory, control panels, and even a cargo box containing Kyber Crystal and thermal detonator parts. It also features a hidden foldout carry handle for easy flight play, two spring-loaded shooters for action sequences and a lift-off top section with foldout side sections that open to reveal the intricate interior. Kids and adults can recreate their greatest moments from the original trilogy or make new ones, all with the same strong construction and thoughtful design that has made LEGO so beloved. Apart from build and play, this set is a true collector's item: LEGO Star Wars sets in general become more valuable and limited-time releases like this one are rare indeed. The Imperial Star Destroyer's status as a #1 best seller on Amazon and the fact that it contains anniversary content make this a particularly attractive option if you're looking to expand your collection. Since this offer is only for Prime members and stock is moving fast, now is the perfect time to act. See at Amazon

Alongside Jedi Bob, Yesi Scala, and Servo, they will journey into the deepest corners of LEGO Star Wars lore, uncovering pieces of all the galaxies that have come before.'

LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon Joins Early Prime Day Deal, and It's a 25th Anniversary Collectible Model
To Luke Skywalker, it's a piece of junk. To Lando Calrissian, it's a poker hand gone bad. To Han and Chewie and every Star Wars fan alive, the Millennium Falcon is an icon, and now to LEGO Star Wars enthusiasts, it's a beautifully detailed displayable model aimed at adults age 18 and up. It's also a great deal at Amazon, where you can get this advanced 921-piece rendition of the Millennium Falcon for just $68 as part of the ongoing celebration of LEGO Star Wars' 25th anniversary. The LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon A New Hope 25th Anniversary Collectible Model normally sells for $85, but this Amazon deal taking 20% off the price is the perfect opportunity for adult Star Wars fans of any age to relive their LEGO-building youth, and then have an impressive collectible and conversation piece to proudly display. See at Amazon We're used to LEGO sets showing incredible attention to detail, especially the LEGO Star Wars ones, but these 25th anniversary collectible models take it to a whole new level. Make no mistake, these aren't playable toys loaded with mini-figures and spring-action guns firing little projectiles — these are advanced buildable kits. The Falcon has 921 pieces that come together to form a faithful rendition of the famous ship at 5 by 9.5 by 7.5 inches in size. It's not huge, but the detail is incredible. All the familiar parts of the ship — the cockpit, the huge rear engine that throws it into hyperdrive (when it works; Luke may have had a point), cannons, and more — are represented, along with a specially designed stand with a LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon nameplate and special LEGO Star Wars 25th Anniversary brick denoting its rare collectible status. The stand allows you to pose the Falcon at dynamic angles so it looks like it's in action, making the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs. The extraordinary nostalgic power of Star Wars is bigger than ever nearly 50 years after the release of the first movie in 1977, so the legions of adult fans almost certainly surpasses that of the kid generation. The LEGO Star Wars 25th Anniversary kits are aimed squarely at those adult fans, who get the chance to enjoy the relaxation of spending time building these kits and then savoring the approving comments once they're finished and displayed. There are dozens of adult-oriented LEGO Star Wars kits available as part of this anniversary celebration, from Jabba's Sail Barge to large, realistic helmets of Darth Vader, Kylo Ren, and others. But we're partial to the Millennium Falcon, the centerpiece of so much of the lore of the Star Wars universe, especially when Amazon's selling it for 20% off — just $68. See at Amazon
