LEGO and Disney are releasing another toy set based on a classic scene from Star Wars: A New Hope.

The companies have previously collaborated on some LEGO versions of iconic scenes from the original Star Wars trilogy, including the Trash Compactor scene from Episode IV A New Hope and Luke Skywalker's training from Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back.

The newest release is based on the fearsome moment when Darth Vader and his fleet of Stormtroopers boarded the Rebel Alliance's Tantive IV ship to battle Raymus Antilles and his Rebel Fleet Troopers.

For this set, LEGO has built in an interactive feature where a lever can simulate Darth Vader blasting the corridor door off the Tantive IV.

The set includes Minifigures of Lord Vader and Captain Antilles, plus two Stormtroopers and two Rebel Troopers so builders can simulate the battle.

The 502-piece diorama will be 8cm (3in) high, 22cm (8.5in) wide and 13cm (5in) deep when it's fully constructed. It's designed for older children, aged 8 and above, as well as adults.
