A whole host of new Star Wars Lego sets have been unveiled ahead of May 4 (AKA Star Wars Day), and they range from new versions of old ships to helmet replicas that'll look very nice on your shelf, thank you very much. There's one kit that stood out to me, though, and it's because the subject is an absolute bastard.
Chopper, please take a bow. Everyone's favorite war criminal from a galaxy far, far away (seriously, look up all the awful things this droid did on Rebels, a family show) is being turned into bricks, and it's one of my favorite Star Wars Lego sets for a while. OK, so it's not going to compete with the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best Lego sets in terms of complexity or show-stopper wow-factor. But it has so much personality despite being a bunch of blocks and studs. I think it's the manic little arms that do it. They look like they're mid-wave aꦰs the droid swears furiously at you.
And yes, he does swear. The character is voiced by Star Wars alum Dave Filoni with his performance put through a filter, and there are moments where he's definitely effing and blinding if you listen closely.
Anyway, here are the details for my new best boi.

The plucky, foul-mouthed droid from Star Wars Rebels and the more recent Ahsoka series is getting a larger-sized version following his appearance in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Lego Ghost & Phantom II a little while ago. Judgingꦇ by the press images, he's got just as much attituไde as his on-screen counterpart.
Unless I'm very much mistaken, this one seems to be to-scale with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Lego R2-D2 and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Lego C-3PO as well; it looks to be of𝕴 a similar size. That makes it the thirdꦺ member of an exasperated droid trio, so they'll look a bit like a barbershop quartet on your shelf.
As with both those 'bots, this one f🌃eatures articulation for posing (a moveable head and leg pieces) alongside tools and posable arms. These can be hidden away if you'd rather display Chop in a different fas𒊎hion.
Much like its brethren, the set also comes with an information plaque alongside a teeny Chopper minifigure. I'm pretty sure this is thꩲe same one we got with the G✱host.
