Alright, here we go.

We bought this Lego Death Star used

because it's out of print.

And we asked the guy to not totally take it apart.

And this giant box arrived, we have no idea

what is really inside.

Sub-boxes.

Wow, look at that, spiral bound.

That's no joke.

[Interviewer] This looks pretty precarious.

How was the drive?

Precarious.

It wobbles for like five minutes after you put it down.

That's how, like, (wobbling noise).

Good start.

Okay, you stay away from this.

Yeah.

I'm about to get into my whack ninja suit.

The good thing is, it's not a ninja suit,

if that makes you feel better.

It's a ninja suit.

The face part's the hardest to get.

I can barely see out of this.

Nothing to see here.

[Woman] That is beyond crazy. That is actually...

I feel like I'm, like, suffocated.

[Producer] We can't even see you.

Step into the light, okay, there we go.

Now I'm not going to lie, I'm nervous, but I'm excited.

(dramatic music)

The thing's gonna explode.

[Producer] Three, two, one.

(death star shatters)

Wow, where'd it go. Holy cow.

It's gone!

So incredibly satisfying.

I can't even see myself.

(upbeat music)
