New LEGO Set Will Let Fans Build Cad Bane's Ship
LEGO continues to expand its partnership with Star Wars to the fullest. After the recent Luke’s X-34 Landspeeder kit and the Star Wars: Skywalker Saga video game, now it's the turn of Cad Bane's ship from Star Wars: The Bad Batch, The Justifier to enter the LEGO Universe.
Among the 12 new items announced at LegoCon 2022, this year's annual Lego conference is this detailed kit that recreates for the first time the famous bounty hunter's ship. Cad Bane was first introduced in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, with subsequent appearances in Star Wars: Rebels and, most recently, in The Book of Boba Fett.

The LEGO kit has 1022 pieces and is for ages nine and up. It has realistic elements, such as the cockpit, the particular engine that opens and closes when landing and taking off, spring-loaded handles on the wingtips, and a laser cell to lock Omega. Also includes five mini-figures of the characters featured in The Bad Batch: Cad Bane, Omega, Fennec Shand, Hunter, and a small droid.
It is a complete model that has the potential to recreate the story told in The Bad Batch or even generate new ones. Children alone or accompanied can assemble and play to their liking with the captivating characters of this series. It is ideal as a birthday gift or as a surprise while they are immersed in the show.
