About this deal

Featuring huge folding wings and opening front and side panels, this amazing model also has an opening minifigure cockpit, detailed hold with seating for 4 minifigures, a rear ramp with blaster storage, dual spring-loaded shooters and retractable landing skids.

If I were in your position and I had the 'resources' to get it at that time, I would definitely have grabbed one, I wouldn't need to see a review.Fans can play out exciting scenes from the classic Star Wars™ trilogy with this buildable Imperial Shuttle (75302) model. Now you can build this huge and iconic Star Wars™ vehicle in true minifigure scale for the first time ever! I say this because the seating configuration inside the cockpit replicates ROTJ, but it’s pretty cramped in there both for head room and leg room.

There’s also an opening access hatch, opening centre section with space for more minifigures and 2 cool spring-loaded shooters to fend off any pursuing Imperial starships! Previously Lego had released a USC Millennium Falcon that at 5,000 pieces was advertised as to scale with the included mini-figures. LEGO Star Wars is now its most successful theme, with fun, creative gift ideas for fans of all ages. One of the fun features is the ability to adjust the wings from flight mode to landing mode using two key handles on the back of the ship, one for each wing. Includes 5 minifigures with assorted weapons: Han Solo in Endor outfit, Princess Leia in Endor outfit, Chewbacca and 2 Endor Rebel Troopers.Even growing up with the non franchised lego models, I never seemed to have the ability to just take a pile of peices and build something I thought was cool. The Ultimate Collector's Series, or UCS, is a LEGO subtheme of Star Wars introduced in 2000 and was meant to be more detailed and aimed at older builders.

The elegant design of the shuttle is beautifully recreated in LEGO® bricks, with an opening minifigure cockpit, opening main compartment with space for 2 LEGO minifigures, foldable wings for flight and landing mode, plus 2 stud shooters. In the landed configuration the model does sit on two legs as seen in the films (now included in the ESB:SE) and balances very well. To see what Lego churns out year after year, and to take something like Star Wars and pump out set after set both for the kids to play with and for the modelers to build just blows me away. Measures over 17” (45cm) high, 9” (25cm) long and 22” (56cm) wide in flying mode, and over 12” (33cm) high, and 7” (18cm) wide in landing mode. you get a big set with many white pieces, some figs you already had, but nevertheless a great set with many nice details.

I think including this would have been much more desirable had they been able to design a gear box that could operate both wings off of one crank.

Includes 5 minifigures: Darth Vader™, Shuttle Pilot, Imperial Officer, Stormtrooper and Luke Skywalker™. And once again, just like the other Technics sets I've built, the thought that has gone into designing this is amazing and it's HUGE! well the true story was I got the box down looked at it thought ill get it went and came back for only five minutes and came back it was GONE! Care HAS to be taken when fitting the wing light cables, I pinched one of the cables while rejoining the wing section resulting in one light not working, using my finger nail for a gap measure I traced the problem and got the light working . The wings are pretty easy to build but be prepared to have circle marks on your fingers due to pushing the pins to stabilize the moving pieces.

The display stand is also surprisingly stable considering how few pieces it is comprised of compared to previous stands for smaller models. With a wide range of colours and effects, along with step-by-step instructions to guide you along the way - our light kits are easy and fun to install.
