Ahead of Star Wars Day on May 4, LEGO teased the launch of the newest member of the Ultimate Collector Series, The Mandalorian's N-1 Starfighter. The 1,809-piece model recreates the sleek, silver-hulled spacecraft with what LEGO described as "advanced building techniques" and Drum Lacquered silver pieces. The set includes Mando and Grogu minifigures and an adjustable stand with dual orientation. So, you can decide whether to display its profile or a head-on view for an "action-ready stance."

Starting today, May 1, the set will be available for LEGO Insiders, while everyone else can pick it up starting May 4. It retails for $349.99 in Canada.

Star Wars Day a.k.a. "May the 4th" becomes even more special. Disney+ will be home to the entire Skywalker saga as the streaming service adds Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker on the said date. It's the same day the documentary series Disney Gallery: The Mandalorian and the series finale of the animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars will be airing. 

With shelter in place ordered in a lot of places around the world, it seems like Disney and Lucasfilm want to take advantage of that captive audience. And while Star Wars fans can't celebrate outside of their homes, this might be the next best thing.
