In honour of the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 lunar landing, Lego is launching a special Lunar Lander set starting June 1st. The 1,087-piece Creator kit comes with a pair of astronaut figures, which we assume represent Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin. It comes in three parts with the top main module, descent-stage portion, and moon base. The top has windows and can fit the astronaut figures. The descent-stage part has the legs, a rocket, and doors with equipment inside. And the moon base has craters, a nameplate, footprints, and a section for the flag. You also get a sticker that replicates the plaque Armstrong and Aldrin left on the moon in 1969. NASA collaborated with Lego on the project. You can hear more about it in the video above with Lego designer Lars Joe. The NASA Apollo 11 Lunar Lander will retail for $139.99 CAD.
