Months before the release of the LEGO Death Star 10188 fans were drooling over leaked pictures of the set and of the new LEGO Star Wars figures that would be released with the set. The new version of the LEGO Death Star did not dissapoint being a different style LEGO set than the original Death Star that LEGO released. This time the set was built for playability instead of a diaroma style set.
Besides that, this version came with new LEGO figures that had never been seen previously, including a new version of Luke Skywalker in a Stormtroopers outfit. Han Solo was also fitted with this outfit as seen in the film. Another fantastic inclusion is the ability to recreate the scene in the film where Luke and Leia escape from the Dianoga trash creature.
The LEGO Death Star 10188 comes with a whopping 3,803 pieces and is a massive set after completion. With four levels of LEGO awesomeness, the 10188 LEGO set is great for play with the ability to recreate several scenes from the original Star Wars movies because of its size.
The finished result is nothing short of stunning, however, with removable walls, chairs that spin, and guns that rotate allowing multiple angles of fire from the Death Star death ray lasers. Authentic movie designs from Episodes IV and VI of the Star Wars Saga set the scene for hours of realistic play with this detailed playset. The Death Star features multiple decks which house the Death Star control room, Emperor's throne Room, hangar bay complete with Darth Vader's own TIE Advanced Starfighter, Imperial conference chamber, droid maintenance facility, and many other rooms suitable for playing out your favorite scenarios.
The LEGO Death Star 10188 brings down the scales at an impressive twenty pounds! Even though it weighs so much and is so detailed it is still a fairly sturdy set for its size. A lot of times LEGO Sets that are this big can be a pain to move around but the Death Star stands up well without falling apart. One of the things to keep an eye on are the Death Ray Lasers. These tend to come off during transport and should be treated with care. One complaint about this LEGO set is that it is not 100 percent true to the films as it contains features from the original Death Star and the Death Star II. This does allow for more playing options but some fans wanted a more accurate model for their collections.
Overall, the LEGO Death Star 10188 playset is well worth its $299.00 price tag; it offers hours of fun, both in building and in playing out your favorite Death Star scenes. The set includes nearly all the central Episode IV and VI characters, making it convenient and easy to portray classic scenes like the Throne Room duel between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. The set is recommended for ages 12 and up.
