First look at the brand new LEGO Star Wars 75306 Imperial Probe Droid

One YouTuber already has their hands on the newly-revealed 75306 Imperial Probe Droid, giving us an early look at the upcoming LEGO Star Wars set.

The 18+ display model is the latest in a growing line of buildable droids from a galaxy far, far away, following in the footsteps (or tracks, perhaps) of 75187 BB-8 and 75278 D-O.

David at Solid Brix Studios received an early copy of the model from the LEGO Group ahead of its wide release on April 26, and has now shared an in-depth review over on his YouTube channel. And as you can probably tell even just from the initial images, we’re apparently looking at a tantalising addition to the LEGO Star Wars line-up.

“I’m very, very impressed with this set – much more than I had ever anticipated to be,” David says. “You’d think it might be a little monotonous with all those arms and weird techniques, but I found it to be a very fun and enjoyable build. I felt like I was building Hoth from The Empire Strikes Back, and that’s a very good thing.”

I like to think of myself as a journalist first, LEGO fan second, but we all know that’s not really the case. Journalism does run through my veins, though, like some kind of weird literary blood – the sort that will no doubt one day lead to a stress-induced heart malfunction. It’s like smoking, only worse. Thankfully, I get to write about LEGO until then.
