Lego Star Wars, LR 15-P (light racer)

The LR 15 (light racer) was a prototype racing star ship and the pride and joy of Hance Estrella, owner and founder of Fedalle Star Works A small subsidiary of Kuat Drive Yards. Starting production just before the start of the Clone Wars, Fedalle Star Works was only able to produce 6 of these exorbitantly expensive star ships due to drastic cuts in funding because of the war. Eventually when The war ended and the Empire ordered that Fedalle Star Works be nationalized, Hance Estrella “lost” all 6 of his prized star ships along with a large shipment of military grade hardware to a “rebel raid”. A few years later a rebel cell was using all 6 of the now highly modified LR 15s as a squadron of long range interceptors, one of which was piloted by Leo Estrella, son of Hance. After the end of the galactic Civil War, The New Republic restored the soul surviving LR 15, dubbed the survivor, and returned it to the Estrella family as a thank you and to mark their contributions to defeating the Empire. Leo Estrella continues to fly his LR 15, The survivor, winning racing competitions throughout the galaxy and making a name for his one of a kind starfighter.

 

This moc was based around the frame from set 76832, I just loved the canted wing design and wanted to build my own model incorporating it. All the accompanying lore was made up by me.
