It was never the most impressive looking of the Star Wars vehicles — in fact, it looked a little junky — but it was always packed to the gills with interesting stuff. Now you can recreate it at home with this Lego Star Wars Sandcrawler set. Built from an impressive 3,296 pieces, it stands over 9 inches tall and 18 inches long, and features eight steerable tracks, a lowering ramp, opening side flaps, a speeder bike, a detailed interior, seven minifigures — including Luke, Uncle Owen, C-3PO, and some Jawas — and five droids, including R2-D2.
Most fans of writer/director/producer/creative badass J.J. Abrams know about his mystery box — if you don't, go watch this — and now you can bring a little bit of that mystery home with the J.J. Abrams x Theory11 Mystery Box. A collaborative effort from Abrams and magic makers Theory11, this unique offering consists of a handcrafted lockbox made from 100-year-old reclaimed wood, iron-branded with a question mark and arriving with an alphanumeric lock. But unlike J.J.'s box, you'll know what's inside — 12 decks of playing cards wrapped in letterpressed kraft paper and a letterpressed note from Abrams himself.
Like the Back to the Future DeLorean before it, Lego's Cuusoo has once again come up with a killer design for a legendary silver screen vehicle. This time, it's the Lego Ghostbusters Ecto-1 making the leap from concept to official set, including details like official Ghostbuster logos on the doors, a removable room, a tracking computer, a trap, and, of course, all four Ghostbusters — Ray, Venkman, Spengler, and Winston — all sporting their own Proton Packs. Lego ghosts not included.
