An enormous new Lego Star Wars set featuring the Mandalorian and Grogu is dropping into a galaxy not so far, far away to celebrate May 4 (AKA Star Wars Day).
Although Mando and Baby Yoda are getting their famed Razor Crest ship back for the titular movie, the latest Lego Star Wars set takes a moment to celebrate what came before – the pair's N1 Starfighter, which they used in season 3 of the show alongside The Book of Boba Fett. However, this isn't a smaller model for both display and play like many of the best Lego sets; it's an Ultimate Collector Series figure with nearly 2K pieces designed to be shown off in pride of place on your shelf.
We've had a smaller playset version of the Mandalorian and Grogu's N1 Starfighter before now, but never one on this scale. You can get your hands on the kit from May 4, or May 1 if you're a Lego Insider.
UK price: £229.99 at Lego
As an Ultimate Collector Series (UCS) kit like the Lego UCS AT-ST, the Lego Mandalorian's N1 Starfighter isn't a trifling thing. It weighs in at 1,809 pieces and measures 26.5in long from tip to tail. That means it's got room for a whole lot more detail than you would normally get from an average playset, displaying the exposed engine parts and various greebly bits in exquisite detail.

The kit will become available on May 4, but if you're part of the (free) Lego Insider program, you can get access from May 1. Because this is basically Lego's sign-in system that requires next to no effort, I'd absolutely recommend grabbing that. The N1 is almost certainly going to be popular, after all, and I can see it going on backorder before long. If you want to secure a copy without having to wait, I'd suggest diving in sooner than later.

I've been writing about games in one form or another since 2012, but these days you'll find me managing GamesRadar+'s tabletop gaming and toy coverage (I spend my time here handling everything from board game reviews to the latest Lego news). I've also been obsessed with Warhammer since the 1990s, and love nothing more than running tabletop RPGs like D&D as a Dungeon Master.
