The super weapon is perhaps an overused trope of the science fiction genre that Star Wars really paved the way for, but it's hard to deny the iconic silhouette of the terrifying Death Star.They were kind of a pain and I believe some pieces should have been printed like the 2x2 and 2x1 slopes that were computer panels.

The instantly recognisable, spherical space station of Death Star is an undeniable part of sci-fi film history and, despite their incompetence when it comes to producing a coherent film trilogy with actual heart and soul, Disney are still preserving the series' tradition alive by keeping the ever-so-impressive LEGO sets coming like The Mandalorian Helmet (75328).The details and design of the Death Star II are impressively accurate, making it a great addition to any LEGO or Star Wars collection. Overall, I had a great time with it and there were several interesting build techniques involved including some subtle half-stud offsets and SNOT builds thrown in for good measure.
