Posted on Wednesday, April 21st, 2021 at 9:58am by Andrew, BZPower News Manager
Earlier today, The LEGO Group revealed 75308 R2-D2, a new adult-oriented set joining droid builds like BB-8 and the Probe Droid. The foot-high set releases May 1st, contains 2314 pieces, and will retail for $200 in the US. The model captures the look of the iconic robot from the film and is packed with features like an extendable third leg, rotating dome, hidden lightsaber, and more! The model is also a part of the 50th anniversary celebration of Lucasfilm, the production company founded in 1971 that brought us the likes of Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Labyrinth, and even The Land Before Time. I'm excited to get my hands on the set and looking forward to see how the functions are designed and incorporated. Let us know if you're planning on picking it up in the Talkback!
