Katana Fleet Dreadnaught

Last Updated . Click "Updates" above to see the latest.

The Katana Fleet or "Dark Force" was a massive fleet of 200 Rendili Dreadnaught-Class Heavy Cruisers lost 12 years before the Battle of Naboo, when their entire crew was infected with a hive virus and made a random hyperspace jump in the insanity before their demise. The fleet was rediscovered 6 years before the Battle of Yavin by Talon Karrde and Captain Hoffner. Five years after the Battle of Endor, Luke, the Rebels, and their new allies Mara Jade and Talon Karrde race to acquire the fleet before it falls into the hands of the Empire's new commander: Grand Admiral Thrawn.

This Lego Set is ~2400 pieces and comes with 12 Minifigures: Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Lando Calrissian, Chewbacca, Talon Karrde, Garm Bel Iblis, 4 Clone Stormtroopers, Imperial Captain Gilead Pellaeon, and Grand Admiral Thrawn. The Dreadnaught itself has 6 Turbolaser blisters and 4 Quad Laser Blisters, a communications array, and a removable roof and nose to access the Turbolaser Capacitors and Bridge. The interior has the distinct blue markings of the Katana Fleet, while it is largely gray on the outside, hence the name "Dark Force." It's largely hollow inside, so it would leave open the possibility of an AT-PT Lego Set.

Appeal: Grand Admiral Thrawn is by and large considered the second greatest villain from the Star Wars universe, only surpassed by Darth Vader himself. The Rendili Dreadnaught would make a great addition to any collection, appearing in the Legends universe in dozens of novels and comic books, and previously unseen minifigures like Talon Karrde, Garm Bel Iblis, Captain Pellaeon, and Grand Admiral Thrawn would be wildly popular.
