10026 SE Naboo Starfighter


06.18.02 Tim

The SE stands for 'Special Edition' and this is definitely the case with
this set. Coming in at 187 pieces and an affordable $39.99 MSRP, you'll be
able to preorder this item at www.LEGOshop.com in the next couple of days
for August shipment.

At this time there are no pics to share - you'll have to watch LEGO for
those. I do have some additional details though; this model is more
intricate than the original 7141 - the tail end is much more sleekly
designed this time. There are no minifigs, continuing the tradition of
making more detailed UCS type models that are meant for the build and
display. Like the other UCS models it comes with a display stand and the
sticker which provides details. You can honestly think of this as a
scaled-down UCS set that is more affordable for everyone.

Oh, and there's one more detail: The entire front end is made up of CHROME
bricks. Yep, you read that right - the nose and tips of the engines are
exact to the film this time.

A thank you to LEGO Direct for allowing FBTB to again announce another of
their great Star Wars products.

Looks like this will be great for all, Mmmmm, Chrome...

(...) I wonder if LEGO is thinking about making the Naboo Royal (Queen's) Starship aswell. Or the new one that was in EP II. Here is hoping for lots of crome plates. Dave (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Thanks for sharing this-- I wonder, because the piece count is only about 35 greater, what the piece layout is going to be. I don't much like yellow, but I do have uses for chrome, so this oughta be very interesting indeed. Chrome leading (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.starwars)
