Today we take a quick tour of the content of the LEGO Star Wars set 75387 Boarding the Tantive IV, a box of 502 pieces available at the public price of €54.99 since March 1st.

Those who had already invested in a copy of the set 75324 Dark Trooper Attack are here on familiar ground with an open half-corridor which at least allows you to enjoy the action that takes place there and a few features so that this exhibition diorama is also a playset when you want to replay the scene in question. takes.

We could discuss at length the relevance of the staging via a corridor open on two of its sides, some consider that it is much too minimalist to convince them whereas others appreciate being able to easily install the figurines provided and have a little fun with the different integrated mechanisms. Tastes and colors are not up for debate, it's up to everyone to appreciate LEGO's proposal.

In addition to the few supports connected to levers clearly visible along the floor of the corridor, we also have a more discreet mechanism which allows you to open the door placed to the left of the construction. The functionality is rather well integrated if you view the diorama from the intended angle and it is easily accessible at two points on the back of the construction. We have fun with it for five minutes, it's anecdotal but we're not going to blame LEGO once again for making an effort to offer a little more than a simple model that's too static.

The floor of the corridor alternates between visible studs and smooth surfaces, there are enough possibilities to install the figurines provided and create a dynamic scene. For all those who would like to obtain a more opulent diorama, LEGO mentions the possibility of acquiring a second box and extending the corridor, this is documented at the end of the instruction booklet (see below) and the connection pins between both copies of the set are provided.

You obviously have to go back to the checkout to take advantage of this possibility but the result is a real playset half-open on both sides with which the youngest will be able to have a little fun and which will allow photographers to have a nice effect perspective.

There are a few stickers to stick in this box, nine in total, and those most concerned about protecting their constructions from attacks from the sun, dust and time will be able to easily do without them without disfiguring the product. The white door is pad printed, it is very nicely executed. I think it is simply because a possible sticker might rub against the wall behind which it is stored that LEGO made the effort not to provide a sticker for this room.

As for the seven minifigs delivered in this box, it's mixed for a set celebrating the 25th anniversary of the LEGO Star Wars range, I was expecting a little more something new. Darth Vader is supplied in the version whose head is also delivered in the sets 75347 Tie Bomber, 75368 Darth Vader Mech  et 75352 Emperor's Throne Room Diorama. The two Stormtroopers are those from the sets 75339 Death Star Trash Compactor et 75370 Stormtrooper Mech. The two rebel soldiers are the ones in the set 75365 Yavin 4 Rebel Base and so there is only Raymus Antilles completely new here. The latter can also be installed on a transparent brick which allows the figurine to be "suspended" to replay the famous scene seen on the screen during which the rebel passes from life to death.

We will console ourselves with the exclusive and “collector” minifig provided on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the LEGO Star Wars range: that of Fives, the ARC Trooper. The figurine is quite detailed with pad printing for fans of the animated series. Star Wars: The Clone Wars should largely benefit from it.

The figurine is for the occasion accompanied by a pad-printed support which allows it to be staged and combined with other minifigs of the same barrel via a Plate black supplied which allows the connection between the supports. This minifig is off-topic here, I would have preferred a new version of a character associated with the scene.

This display for minifigs which ultimately looks like a cinema set and which offers some fun possibilities seems to me to be rather well done and even if the scene perhaps deserved something a little more ambitious, I find it largely my account with a very convincing decor and a sufficient supply of figurines so that this piece of corridor is not too empty.

We recognize the places, the construction does not take up too much space and we ultimately obtain a beautiful decorative object in the form of a nod to a cult scene from the saga. What more could you ask for except to pay a little less for this box than its public price set at €54.99, which should quickly be possible elsewhere than on the manufacturer's official online store.

Note: The product shown here, provided by LEGO, is as usual involved. Deadline fixed at April 2th next at 23:59 p.m. Simply post a comment below the article to participate.

The March 2024 issue of the official LEGO Batman magazine is now available on newsstands and the previous issue remained very discreet on the minifig provided with this new issue of the magazine.

This is therefore yet another Batman figurine, delivered for the occasion with a jetpack to build. It's meager for €6.99 and this magazine is clearly struggling a little to broaden the offerings by integrating new characters. Batman is undoubtedly the best-selling character in the DC universe among young people, so the publisher is not taking any risks. Worse, the next issue expected on newsstands from June 14, 2024 will also be delivered with...Batman, this time perched on his robot armor to assemble.
