by
LEGO always goes big for May 4th aka Star Wars Day, and it looks like 2022 won’t be any different. They recently revealed that the 75341 Luke Skywalker’s X-34 Landspeeder set will headline the event as the latest entry into their Ultimate Collector Series (UCS). This large-scale edition of the Landspeeder will include 1,890 pieces along with minfigures of Luke and C-3PO. What’s more, LEGO will be offering some exciting Star Wars freebies at launch, and your first chance at all of it is happening on May 1st. All of the details you’ll need to add it to your collection can be found below.
The LEGO UCS 75341 Luke Skywalker’s Landspeeder set is based on the vehicle from A New Hope, and features a two-seater cockpit, exposed turbine engine, curved cockpit windscreen, an exclusive C-3PO minifigure (with 2K moulded legs and a side print), and a display stand with plaque. It will measure over 19-inches long when complete. You can take a closer look at the details in the gallery below.
The LEGO Star Wars Landspeeder Set will be available for everyone to order on May 4th / Star Wars Day priced at $199.99. However, LEGO VIPs can order the set starting on April 30th / May 1st at 9pm PST, 12am ESTright here at the LEGO Shop (exclusive). Signing up to be a VIP is free, so it would be a good idea to take advantage as a sell out of this set is highly likely on May 4th.
LEGO is also offering a range of gifts with Star Wars purchases for their “May the 4th Be With You” festivities. This includes the delightfully weird Lars Family Homestead Kitchen set with purchases over $160, an AT-ST set for purchases over $40, a VIP exclusive Mandalorian Beskar keychain for purchases over $70, and double VIP points. These offers run May 1st through May 8th, and you can check them out right here at LEGO’s Star Wars Day hub.
LEGO set designer C?sar Carvalhosa Soares had the following to say about the project:
“It’s been an amazing adventure creating Luke Skywalker’s Landspeeder in LEGO brick form. It is such an iconic vehicle in the Star Wars saga. We’ve ensured no detail has been forgotten and have even included some of the scratches. The finished product makes an incredible display and is the perfect addition to the UCS collection.”
