LEGO Star Wars #75059 Sandcrawler Announced

This new #75059 Sandcrawler just beat #70810 MetalBeard's Sea Cow with the total off 3296 parts count. There is no surprise that the price was higher as well since this was a licensed set with more parts count.

The set are going to be release in May, and I'm starting to lose out more and more LEGO Star Wars playset and my wishlist is getting longer now. This is another chance to get Sandcrawler, for those that missed the first version. I think this second version should be very well improved especially the super fragile base that break off easily when too much pressure is being press on it. The set is priced at USD299.99.
