LEGO has announced the release of a new Store exclusive set on 1st October 2018 (and early VIP loyalty program release on 13th September 2018) of the LEGO Star Wars Master Builder Series – Betrayal at Cloud City set# 75222.
It features a total of 20 minifigs which populate all the iconic scenes in the floating Cloud City from the Star Wars : The Empire Strikes Back.
Slave-1 and Boba Fett? Check!
Carbon Freezing Chamber? Check!
Interrogation Chamber? Check!
Tense dining room? Check!
Lightsaber Duel at the Central air shaft? Check!
LEGO also seems to be trying to emulate the highly successful Ultimate Collectors Series with a similarly named Master Builder Series. Perhaps this new term was coined as a direct response to the highly criticized UCS badge on the 75098 Assault on Hoth set?
Link to the gallery of all the high resolution pictures is provided at the end of this article.
This time round, LEGO has been generous enough to includes alternate faces of the minifigs!
