    In celebration of the films 40th anniversary, Target is releasing a new exclusive The Empire Strikes Back LEGO set showcasing the iconic reveal of Darth Vader as Luke's father on Cloud City. StarWars.com interviewed LEGO Star Wars design director Jens Kronvold Frederiksen about how LEGO redesigned the iconic scene.



    I can’t think of a more iconic moment from Empire to celebrate with a LEGO set. I’d imagine it was something of a no-brainer, but at the same time, there’s probably extra pressure to get it right.

    Did you uncover anything in your research that surprised you?

    I love the details, like the three sliced columns near Vader, that you were able to carry over from the film. How important is it to you to get those storytelling elements and details into a build like this?



    For the full interview go to Starwars.com. The LEGO Star Wars Bespin Duel set is available August 27 on Target.com.
