In 4 ABY, [10] the Executor, still commanded by Piett, served as the flagship for an Imperial fleet of Star Destroyers that assembled at the remote forest moon of Endor, where the Empire's new superweapon, the second Death Star was under construction. [11] The Executor stood guard over Endor, taking clearance requests from any starship that entered the system. [46] When the Lambda-class T-4a shuttle Tydirium arrived in the system, the Executor reached out for its code clearance, to which it recieved an older but still valid code. Just as Piett was going to allow the shuttle a chance to pass, Vader asked for more information on its destination after sensing there was more to the ship; the shuttle had actually been stolen by the Rebel Alliance and was transporting a strike team, among its members Skywalker, to the surface. While Piett was willing to hold the Tydirium, Vader led the ship pass to deal with the matter personally. [11] In 2009, in conjunction with the then ongoing TV show Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Lego released a 1,170 piece model of the Venator. For the 2016 Consumer Electronics Show, noted modder Sander van der Velden created a custom-built PC made to look like a Venator Star Destroyer. Built around a fully-functional, liquid-cooled PC, the surrounding case was constructed in the shape of a Venator using aluminum and 3D printed material. The final product required 400 hours of work to complete. [35] [36] [37] [38] Resurgent Star Destroyer [ edit ]Collectors who are interested in paying homage to beloved characters (such as the prior-mentioned Boba Fett, Darth Vader, Captain Rex, and the Mandalorian) and archetypes (such as the stormtrooper, TIE fighter pilot, and clone trooper) will likely gravitate towards the Helmets and Heads collection. Featuring screen-accurate details, these products resemble pieces of art and are suited to being displayed around the home. How Many Star Wars LEGO Sets Are There?

Star Destroyers feature in numerous Legends publications, with a considerable amount of additional notable information. According to West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game sourcebooks and other texts, Imperial-class Star Destroyers are constructed by Kuat Drive Yards and hold a distinguished place in the Imperial Navy, symbolizing the Empire's military might with a peak number of more than 25,000 vessels. [50] Like the Venator and Victory-class ships that precede it, the Imperial-class is a multi-role capital ship combining the roles of a battleship, starfighter carrier, and troopship. Notable for its massive size and overwhelming firepower compared to its fore-bearers; a single Imperial-class ship is capable of singlehandedly taking on a fleet of enemy vessels or "reducing the surface of a planet to a slag" (known as "Base Delta Zero"), and its mere presence is often enough to deter rebellion. [50] At 1,600 meters (5,200ft) long, Imperial-class Star Destroyers are crewed by 9,235 Officers, 27,850 enlisted personnel, and 275 Gunners. The Imperial I is armed with 60 turbolasers, 60 ion cannons, and 10 tractor beam projectors for space combat. [50] The standard complement is 72 TIE fighters (including 12 TIE Bombers and 12-24 TIE Interceptors), and a variety of support craft including shuttles and transports. Unlike other comparable capital ships like the Mon Calamari MC80 Star Cruiser of the Rebel Alliance (later New Republic), an Imperial-class Star Destroyer carries a full array of ground forces (including 9700 stormtroopers, 20 AT-ATs and 30 AT-STs) with dropships for rapid deployment to planetary surfaces, plus a prefabricated base if a permanent planetary garrison is required.

Once you've done this, you'll need to disable it, then board it, then defeat the Captain of the ship. Once you've done all that, you'll be able to buy it from the Holoprojector Menu. Built by Kuat Drive Yards, [2] the Executor was part of a class of Star Destroyers of the same name, which were the fruit of a project the Sith Lord Darth Vader had been pushing for. [35] The Executor was intended to take the place of the Annihilator as the flagship of the Supreme Commander, Grand General Cassio Tagge, and therefore assume the position of the greatest starship in the entire Imperial Fleet. [21] By the aftermath of the War on Shu-Torun, the Super Star Destroyer was entering the final stages of its construction at the orbital shipyards of Kuat. [36] In contrast to the UCS, we have the Master Builder Series (MBS), a line that — although its complexity is nearly equivalent to the UCS — is made for the purpose of being played with. Sets in this group, first introduced in 2018, are distinguishable by their inclusion of varied play functions and interior details, which allow them to easily fall into the category of toys. Two notable examples of products in the MBS are those depicting the betrayal at Cloud City and the Mos Eisley Cantina. With these products, fans can re-enact the exploits of their favourite Jedi, droids, bounty hunters, and Sith Lords (including Luke Skywalker, Anakin Skywalker, Yoda, R2-D2, Darth Maul, General Grievous, and Boba Fett). The Heads & Helmets Collection

In 3 ABY, [10] an Imperial probe droid located the Rebel hideout, Echo Base, on the frozen planet of Hoth [17] while the Executor and its fellow ships were in the Juris sector. [45] Although Ozzel disagreed with Vader, Vader sensed they found the Rebels and commanded him to move the armada to the Hoth system. However, the Admiral brought their fleet out of hyperspace too close to the system, which allowed the Rebels to raise their defensive base shields, forcing the Empire to initiate a ground assault. Ozzel was subsequently killed by Vader for his failure, and Captain Firmus Piett to serve as his successor. [17]
