Thanks to a slip-up, members of the LEGO affiliate scheme in Australia and New Zealand were given early notification that the long-suspected UCS Landspeeder would be part of this year’s May The 4th Be With You retail event.
On the 1st of May, LEGO® will launch the first-ever LEGO® Star Wars™ Ultimate Collector Series version of Luke Skywalker’s Landspeeder (75341) from Star Wars: A New Hope. This set includes 2 LEGO minifigures of iconic Star Wars™ characters – Luke Skywalker with a lightsaber and electrobinoculars and C-3PO, plus a plaque displaying X-34 Landspeeder technical data.
This set will retail at $319.99AUD/$339.99NZD.
With the news that This Week In Star Wars would get the big reveal at noon on the Pacific coast of the United States this Thursday, the email went out on Thursday in Australia and New Zealand – despite it still being Wednesday on the other side of the world.
Timezones are confusing, right?
