LEGO Unveils New Star Wars Sets Inspired by Jango Fett and Chopper

May the Force build with you!

With May the 4th, AKA Star Wars Day, quickly approaching, LEGO has unveiled two new sets perfect for the galaxy’s best builders.

What’s Happening:

Star Wars and LEGO have teamed up to bring two new building sets to life just in time for Star Wars Day.
Both set to release early this May, the LEGO Star Wars UCS (Ultimate Collectors Series) Jango Fett's Firespray-Class Starship and the LEGO Star Wars Chopper (C1-10P) Astromech Droid are highly detailed with both sets featuring over a thousand pieces.
Let’s take a look at each of the new sets:

Unveiled by The Hollywood Reporter, this set retails for $299.99 and includes 2,970 pieces, making it a fun challenge for Star Wars and LEGO fans.
In addition to the ship, the set also will arrive with mini figures of both Jango Fett and a young Boba Fett.

Known as the Slave I, the heavily modified Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft is iconic to the fan-favorite bounty hunter.
It is the first LEGO model of Jango Fett’s starship since 2002.
Fans attending Star Wars Celebration Japan will be able to get a first look at the new set, which kicks off on April 18th.
When fully built, Jango Fett’s Starship will be 17.5" long, 7.5" high, and 15.5" wide.
You can check out the new set here, which will be available starting May 4th.

Showcased on the official Star Wars website, the new Chopper build set is the first time this war criminal has been featured as more than a mini figure by LEGO.
Taking inspiration from the droid's appearance in Ahsoka, this set features 1039 pieces and retails for $99.99.
The set was created to showcase the expressive and resourceful nature of this fan-favorite character, featuring hidden tools and an articulated head for posing opportunities.
When fully completed, Chopper will stand at 8.5" tall, 6" wide, and 3.5", making it a perfect addition to any desk or bookshelf.

The new set is available for preorder now here, and will be available starting on May 1st.
If you preorder the set or purchase it on May 1st, fans can qualify for a free gift with purchase.
