It all started when Brickset.com posted their
review online today, which highlighted the fact that this set had gone un-noted by the
Star Wars community for over a month.
Further research has found that a thread in the
Eurobricks forums had already revealed the set in all its miniature glory in January. Going deeper it turns out that it has (so far) only been released in Poland with the February issue of
Kaczor Donald (trans. Donald Duck), while the instructions can be downloaded directly from
LEGO.com.
Current speculation is that this set will be part of a promotion during the DVD release of
The Force Awakens - we'll follow this rumour up and report back when we know more about a wider release. If you can't wait then pop over to
Bricklink.com where they can be picked up for between $5 and $10.
UPDATE: It turns out that this was part of a Japanese Toys "R" Us promotion in January. Thanks to
Minifigure Price Guide for the correction. Incidentally the same promotion has the MINI First Order Star Destroyer that EB Games in Australia are offering as part of their LEGO
Star Wars:
The Force Awakens pre-order campaign.
