| Hop into the Jedi airspeeder as Mace Windu and do all you can to defeat the evil Sith Lord, Palpatine. Be sure not to fall out of the cockpit as you set off your dual-flick missiles for an action-packed battle. Hours of adventurous fun await with LEGO's Palpatine's Arrest (9526). This set is packed full of accessories, including six minifigures. These minifigures are Anakin Skywalker, Mace Windu, Saesee Tiin, Agen Kolar, Chancellor Palpatine, and Kit Fisto. Along with the airspeeder, you can assemble Palpatine's suite in the Galactic Senate. It has a detachable entrance and sliding doors to facilitate the traitor's arrest. The landing pad is also entirely detachable. Activate the Force jump lever and get armed for the adventure with the six lightsabers and two Sith lightning bolts. If you're a fan of Star Wars, you're sure to remember this scene from “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith.” When building this set, you have the power to accurately recreate the scene or take it in a different direction. There are many unique features to this set that help it stand out among similar LEGO sets. For instance, you can act out the scene by turning the head of the Palpatine figure to show his second and much more ghastly face. While the Jedi speeder was designed to land on the landing platform, it can be used in numerous scene recreations. This LEGO Star Wars Palpatine arrest set measures 10 inches long, 15 inches wide, 3 inches high, and includes 645 pieces. Each piece within this LEGO set is designed to accurately match the characters and settings from the “Episode III” movie. If you're ever having difficulties putting the pieces together, picture-based instructions that help with the process are included. This LEGO set is large enough to build with a friend if you wish to do that. Since both bad and good characters are included, you can play as the heroes while your friend plays as the Dark Lord villain. No matter how you play, this LEGO Star Wars Palpatine’s Arrest set can provide hours of fun and adventure. It is up to you to decide whether Anakin will choose to help Palpatine or the Jedi. How you answer this question could change the entire fate of the Star Wars galaxy. When you wish to attack with Palpatine, this character can use the two included lightning bolts for extra power. This LEGO set was designed and crafted by The LEGO Group and was initially released in the year 2012. It's specifically made to be used by children between the ages of 9 and 14, although anyone over those ages can build it. If you just want to build the LEGO set but don't wish to play with it, consider displaying it instead. A set such as this is large enough to make a great display piece. This LEGO kit weighs around 2.5 pounds and takes a couple of hours to build to completion. This LEGO 9526 set makes an excellent gift for any Star Wars fan. |
