Disclosure: We attended a media preview.
The LEGO® Star Wars™ Miniland Death Star Model Display has been unveiled at LEGOLAND California Resort, and it's incredible! On March 4th, Stormtroopers rushed in to secure the area as Darth Vader used the force to unveil the new LEGO model display during the opening ceremony. It's LEGOLAND California Resort’s latest major addition in LEGO Star Wars™ Miniland which is now available for all to enjoy, and it came just in time for LEGO Star Wars Days on March 7th and 8th!
The new model display features iconic scenes made of LEGO® bricks that were filmed inside the Galactic Empire’s space station including the famous trench run scene where Luke Skywalker piloted his X-wing to destroy the Death Star. Adjacent to the LEGO Death Star, is a fun interactive LEGO starships building station for all ages while X-Wings, TIE Fighters and Y-Wings circle overhead.
Fun Facts:
Designed from Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope, it includes six animated Turbo Laser Turrets and a LEGO Starship model orbiting the powerful weapon.
"Casting a shadow over LEGO Star Wars™ Miniland, the Death Star spans 8-feet wide, 13-feet high and weighs more than 1900 pounds. Featuring a planet-destroying super laser, the massive LEGO model is made out of more than 500,000 LEGO bricks and includes a display of the famous trench run scene where Luke Skywalker maneuvered his X-wing fighter through the combat zone to destroy the Death Star."
At LEGO® STAR WARS™ Miniland, you can enjoy scenes from the six live-action STAR WARS movies plus one from the animated series STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS which includes 1.5 million bricks! Scenes include Tatooine (where Luke Skywalker grew up), Endor, the icy planet Hoth, and the Millennium Falcon. If you're looking for LEGO products that feature the seven scenes in LEGO Star Wars Miniland model displays, you can find them in the Empire Emporium!
Also check out the LEGO STAR WARS Gallery which include large-scale LEGO mini-figurines from each episode. Each LEGO model are 3-feet tall and stands on a podium. The 12 characters featured are Wicket, Princess Leia, R2-D2, Clone Captain Rex, Darth Vader, Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Anakin Skywalker, Boba Fett, Chewbacca, Yoda, and Darth Maul.
