As the Star Wars celebration happens, we get to hear more about Disney and Lucasfilm's plans for the franchise. One of the latest updates includes three new films coming at an unspecified time. One of the new movies will have Daisy Ridley reprising her role as Rey. The movie will take place 15 years after the events of The Rise of Skywalker, which was the final film in the Skywalker saga and the most recent Star Wars movie and focuses on Rey forming a new Jedi Order. Academy Award winner Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy (Ms. Marvel and Saving Face) will direct the film.

It joins the other sets in the Lego Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series. The design doesn't deviate too much from its predecessors. It gets the 4L4 fusial thrust engines and the KX9 laser cannons. This new X-Wing measures 10.5 inches in height and 21.5 inches in length once complete.

This build also comes with a lightsaber-wielding Luke Skywalker in a Rebel flight suit, complete with a dedicated spot on the display stand. There's also an R2-D2 minifigurine sitting inside the Starfighter. The X-Wing Starfighter will go on sale on May 4th at Lego's online and physical stores for CAD 319.99.
