LEGO X-Wing Sports A Whopping 1,500 Pieces

The Star Wars vs Star Trek debate continues, and the recent story arc in PvPOnline also showed that off. Well, the Starship Enterprise was recently spotted as part of a Kre-O creation, but I guess Star Wars fan can gloat over Star Trek fans in this round, as LEGO has just released a model of the much loved X-Wing starfighter, which will feature more than 1,500 LEGO pieces to construct. In fact, we are talking about 1,558 LEGO pieces to be exact, and the finished model will measure a whopping 20 inches in length, 10 inches tall when its S-foil is in attack position, the span will end up measuring 18 inches wide.

In fact, there is also enough room for an R2-D2 minifig that is part of the package to help you get out of a particularly tight situation. Don’t you think that R2-D2 has been indispensable in the entire Star Wars saga, often looking as though it is a dumbed down version of Humpty Dumpty, but is actually far more capable of a fight than even some Jedis? Thing is, if you want to pick up this highly desirable LEGO piece, it can be yours later this May for a whopping $199.99.
