At Star Wars Celebration 2019, LEGO has officially revealed the next LEGO Star Wars direct-to-consumer set with the Tantive IV (75244). Although not labeled an Ultimate Collectors Series set, it could very well be one as it comes in at 1,768 pieces and retailing for $199.99. It will be available starting on May 3 which is the start of LEGO’s May the 4th promotions so there will most likely be a gift-with-purchase bonus during that weekend.
