Can't go to Galaxy's Edge? Build your own droid in this stellar Prime Day Lego deal

Prime Day is a great time to pick up something that's not usually on sale, something cool but a bit pricey at regular retail, like Lego's Star Wars-themed robot set, at a discount.

For a limited time, you can get the Lego Star Wars Droid Commander set from Amazon for $134. That's 33% off the regular price, plus you get all three droids.

Lego has a long history of using its iconic blocks to get people (especially kids) interested in robotics and coding. The Lego Boost theme is the company's latest attempt, and the Star Wars Droid Commander set adds a little more fun to the mix. Because Star Wars has the best robots.

With Droid Commander, not only can you build three iconic Star Wars droids (R2-D2, Mouse Droid, and Gonk Droid), but you can also program their behavior by coding them with the Droid Commander app. The app is specifically designed to help children develop problem-solving skills, learn to code, and master other STEM skills.

The app also includes 40 interactive missions that utilize buildable props and, of course, the Lego droids themselves. It's learning yet fun, so kids may not even realize they are learning valuable life skills while playing. Of course, since it is designed for children, it is not overly complicated.

There's a reason this is one of our favorite LEGO Star Wars sets.

This is just one of the many Prime Day deals available today, and trying to navigate them all can be quite difficult. Fortunately, we at Tom's Guide have put together the best deals to save you the hassle, so check out our Prime Day Deals Hub to see if there's another bargain that's right for you.
