Our Lego expert gave this Star Wars set 5 out of 5 stars, and now it could be yours for just $40 this Black Friday

Not got space or the bank balance for the UCS Venator? This Star Wars: Attack of the Clones Acclamator-Class Assault ship is the next best thing, especially if you remember the end of the movie, when the intergalactic war kicked into gear. And now, thanks to Amazon’s Black Friday sale, it’s down to just $40.

You can get the Lego Star Wars: Attack of the Clones Acclamator-Class Assault Ship on sale right now at Amazon for $40.

It’s a crying shame that the Acclamator didn’t get more movie screen time before being replaced by the Venator in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. But this model of the craft, last seen being loaded with clones, is seriously cool, and it’s a genuine joy to build. Our expert gave it 5 out of 5 stars in their review of the Lego Star Wars: Attack of the Clones Acclamator-Class Assault Ship and we think it’s one of the best Lego Star Wars sets out there.

With 450 PCs, the set will take you half an afternoon to build and, thanks to the optional stand, it can be perched on a shelf. It’s rated for builders aged 18 or over, but once built, children can swoosh it around the living room without it falling apart.

There are no minifigures included in this Lego Star Wars Acclamator-Class Assault Ship set but that’s to be expected since it’s part of Lego’s mid-sized ship range. It is, however, a seriously cool build, and fun with it. Featuring just under 500 parts, it won’t take you long to build, but you’ll get a kick out of watching the ship come together.

Once built, it’s strong enough that it can be taken off its stand and swooshed around a room, or you can perch it on the stand and have it take pride of place on your shelf. We think it’s one of the best Lego Star Wars sets out there, and in our review of the Lego Star Wars Acclamator-Class Assault Ship, we gave it 5 out of 5 stars.

There aren’t that many clever elements in the build, but building it still feels like an accomplishment, especially when you see how much detail it packs in, down to its tiny troop doors. At this price, you won’t be disappointed with the Lego Star Wars Acclamator-Class Assault Ship.
