One of the largest LEGO Star Wars sets released recently is the #75059 LEGO Star Wars Sandcrawler. We have talked about the set several times before (see links at the end of this post), however if you haven’t seen it personally it’s hard to see all the details and features, and just how big this set truly is. On of our favorite LEGO reviewers JANGBRiCKS recently got this set and have posted a full video-review. Besides seeing the set in person, this is the next best thing to really experience this set. So let’s take a look! 🙂
#75059 LEGO STAR WARS SANDCRAWLER: As you probably know already, there was an earlier version of this set, the #10144 LEGO Star Wars Sandcrawler released back in 2005, and it is interesting to see all the improvements LEGO has done in the new release. Watch the video-review below to appreciate all the features.
Pretty epic for a giant ugly dumpster isn’t it? Love all the little cubbies and hiding places! Also, here is the official description for your convenience: Collect a true icon of the classic Star Wars universe – the mighty Sandcrawler! Recreate unforgettable scenes from Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope with this amazing LEGO incarnation of the Jawas’ desert-going vehicle, the Sandcrawler. Turn the knob at the rear and steer the Sandcrawler into position, lower the front ramp and offload the droids using the 2 working cranes. Luke Skywalker and his Uncle, Owen Lars, are sure to be impressed with the selection on offer: there’s R2-D2, an R1-series Droid, an R2 unit, R5-D4, a Treadwell Droid, Gonk Droid and even C-3PO. When the sale is complete, lift the side panels and top to reveal more great features inside, like the engine, storage bay, cockpit and more. There’s even a speeder bike for when the Jawas need to venture outside. 3296 pieces. Price: $299.99. Available right now at the Online LEGO Shop.
