Since its conception in Denmark in 1934, LEGO has produced some of the most popular toys in the world. Advancing from the idea of blocks that could be stacked, LEGO created revolutionary toys that could be locked together. It seems like LEGOs have come a long way since then, and in fact they have. Since their creation, very few toys have insipired the same level of creativity that you can find in LEGOs. While you can buy specific LEGO sets, it's up to you to decide on how to assemble the pieces.
The first Lego system was created in 1966. The Lego Train Set, which included a build able train with a motor, has been so successful that it is still being modified and released today. Since then, the Lego Company released a number of other systems, including boats, towns, and space in which you would buy one building, or spaceship at a time and construct it to form the ultimate set. Their systems became increasingly more complex and adventurous over the years, and now it wouldn't be uncommon to find yourself building a pirate ship, or an Egyptian pyramid or constructing and fortifying a LEGO castle from mini LEGO invaders. They've even stepped into the sports, comics, and cartoon worlds, bringing characters (such as Spiderman, Indiana Jones, Sponge bob, or even Harry Potter) and places to children and adults alike in a hands on, interactive way.
Star Wars LEGO sets have proven to be some of the most popular LEGOs, and with such a rich film history to draw on, it's no wonder. The first LEGO Star Wars set was released in 1999: the LEGO X-Wing. Since then, there have been LEGO sets created that go with the original trilogy and each of the first three prequels of the Star Wars saga. In addition to the immense popularity of the toys, LEGO has even created a series of LEGO Star Wars games on every major console.
Death star, released in 2008 by LEGO is one of the more popular play sets of the star wars series. In the movie star wars episode IV: A New Hope, "death star" is a moon sized space station and a super weapon, which in a single attack is capable of destroying a planet. LEGO "death star" is built to scale and has an uncanny resemblance to the one in the movie. This play set has multiple decks and contains an array of characters, moving parts and accessories. It is sixteen inches tall and sixteen and a half inch wide and has a total of 3803 pieces. It has 25 mini-figures and droids. This includes the exclusive figures of Luke Skywalker and Han Solo in Stormtrooper outfit, Death Star Droid, Phlutdroid, Assassin Droid, Interrogation Droid and minifigures like Obi-Wan Kenobi, Emperor Palpatine, Stormtrooper, Princess Leia, Chewbacca and Mouse Droid. It features Death Star Control Room, Death Star Turbolasers, Hangar Bay, Hangar Bay Control Room, Death Star Superlaser and Weapons Bay, Detention Block, meeting room etc. LEGO death star is one of the most intricately designed star wars sets. It is fun to assemble and great for display.
