Lego 30277 First Order Star Destroyer Mini Building Set

While searching for the Lego First Order Heavy Assault Walker Mini Building Set, I stumbled across another polybag vehicle that - despite being released almost a year ago - had so far been completely absent from any of my local stores: the First Order Star Destroyer.


Retailing at $3.49US ($5.49NZD), this set is at the opposite end of the feature-spectrum when compared with the Heavy Assault Walker. Put simply, it doesn't do a darn thing. The silhouette isn't quite right either - with the sharp, elongated prow being traded in for a much stubbier nose. Nevertheless, I've become something of a completionist with this line, and there are still a few nice details incorporated into the design: chief among which is the usage of some transparent tiles to simulate running lights. It'll also nicely complete the set of Force Awakens mini building sets I've been building, including Poe's X-Wing, the First Order Special Forces TIE Fighter, and Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle.
