This awesome starfighter is the very first to be modelled on a video game. This is an absoulute must for all those darkside lovers out there, coming with a cannon, two flick missile launchers and three exclusive minifigures inclding: Darth Vader (battle damaged), Juno Eclipse and Darth Vader's apprentice. This set takes roughly 2 hours to build but is realy worth it. Have fun exterminating Jedi.

Lego kick off their 2008 Star Wars series with the first ever kit based on a Star Wars computer game with the excellent Rogue Shadow from The Force Unleashed.
This model is a great representation of the ship used by Darth Vader in the game. It features opening cockpit canopy to reveal the pilot area (for 1 figure) and storage compartment, rotating wing panels which simultaneously fold the engine port back for either flight position or landing and moveable landing gear which folds away neatly for flight. There are weapons pods on the tip of each wing which add to the sinister look.
The port wing has two compartments. The upper one which opens to allow a missile rack which activates with a lever from the outside. The two missiles are simply pulled out for use. The lower compartment has a swivelling weapons rack which has two of the heavy assault rifles in it. The starboard wing has one compartment which opens via a lever from underneath which ratchets a firing missile launcher from inside - the same type as the one in the 2007 Imperial Landing Craft or 2006's Slave 1.
The bonus of this kit is the 3 mini figures with it. You get a battle damaged Darth Vader figure with great face and body detailing. You can choose to have him wearing his helmet or a partial version and wielding his red lightsabre. You also get Juno Eclipse who has a choice of hair or Imperial Officer's hat and like Vader, has better face detailing. Finally you have Vader's apprentice complete with a red lightsabre. Unfortunately he is relegated to the basic Lego face which is a shame seeing as how the other two look so good.
The kit is composed of 460 pieces, not including the figures, weapons, alternate head pieces and firing missile.
Rogue Shadow measures 38cm long from aft engine to laser cannon tip, 32cm wide from wing to wing and 9cm high not including wings in vertical landing position.
It takes about 45 minutes to build and is a very welcome addition to the Star Wars universe. Let's hope Lego continue further releases from the Star Wars games soon.
