Big thing!

I never did buy the huge Lego Star Destroyer that was released last year. Not because of its cost, just because of the sheer size of the thing. It would have looked silly. Anyway, now it has a friend - a giant Lego Death Star (as seen in Return of the Jedi rather than the original one). Like the one in the film, it is only partially constructed, which seems appropriate given the modelling medium.

I'm not going to get this one either though, for exactly the same reasons. It's too damn big. And also it doesn't come with any little Lego men which makes it much harder to play with. Mind you, given the scale involved, if it had come with little men they'd have been so small that I'd have needed tweezers and possibly a microscope in order to move them about, which would have destroyed the realism for me a little.
