Landspeeder

Description

The everyday vehicle of the galaxy

In the Star Wars galaxy, landspeeders fill the role that cars play on Earth. They hover a short distance above the ground and carry people from farm to town. The most famous example belongs to Luke Skywalker in A New Hope, carrying him, Obi-Wan Kenobi and the droids across the Tatooine desert to Mos Eisley. At the Stormtrooper checkpoint, Obi-Wan's quiet Jedi mind trick turns a tense moment into one of the film's most quoted scenes.

Warm colours for a change

Dark red leads the colour list, followed by black, light bluish grey and reddish brown. That mix stands out among small Star Wars builds, which are often dominated by white and grey. The 55 pieces include 27 distinct elements, so about half of the parts are unique. The parts list on this page shows each element with its colour and quantity, making it simple to check that your copy is complete or to sort the pieces afterwards.

A quick build for any age

At 55 pieces, the speeder comes together in a few minutes. It is a good first set for children learning to follow instructions, and a pleasant short build for adults between larger projects. The finished vehicle is low and compact, easy to push across a table or park beside other Tatooine models. Since no minifigures are included, you can add a driver from your own collection if you want to set up a scene.

Less common colours to reuse

Dark red and reddish brown turn up less often than grey or white, so the speeder is a handy source of accent colours once it is taken apart. Those pieces can add detail to your own vehicles, furniture or buildings. The What can I build? feature on this page compares your collection with other sets. It shows which models you could build straight away and which ones need only a few more pieces.
