In conjunction with this upcoming show, LEGO has released a new toy vehicle set called The Dark Falcon which will include a Darth Jar Jar minifigure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Dark Falcon appears to be an alternate version of the Millennium Falcon, which will serve as Darth Jar Jar&#8217;s ship\/base in the special. The description of the playset mentions that The Dark Falcon includes Darth Jar Jar&#8217;s throne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"centered\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"itljjbd_photo\" style=\"max-width:50%\" src=\"https:\/\/talklikejarjarday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/dark_falcon1.jpg\"><figcaption>The Dark Falcon LEGO playset<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides Darth Jar Jar, also included are alternate versions of other popular characters: Bounty Hunter C-3PO, Darth Rey, Beach Luke, and Jedi Vader (in white armor), as well as Darth Dev (a character who will be introduced in the LEGO special).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"centered\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"itljjbd_photo\" style=\"max-width:50%\" src=\"https:\/\/talklikejarjarday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/dark_falcon2.jpg\"><figcaption>Lego minifigures included in The Dark Falcon LEGO playset, including Darth Jar Jar<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The list price for this item is $179.99. A few vendors seem to be offering it for a little less, but you probably won&#8217;t find it for much less than $10 or $20 off that price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We reached out to LEGO to ask if it would be possible to get standalone copies of the Darth Jar Jar figure, but were informed that, unfortunately, due to LEGO&#8217;s licensing agreement with Lucasfilm, the figure can only be obtained through purchase of this set, at this point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"centered videoboxm\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8qH_K6dm64g?si=Bu-Oe6BHA8EKDWCW\" width=\"350\" height=\"215\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<div class=\"centered videobox\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8qH_K6dm64g?si=Bu-Oe6BHA8EKDWCW\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>We were able to locate a few Dark Falcons at our local Walmart, but this is likely to be a very popular set (the LEGO site already indicates that it is backordered).
