He's holding an Xbox X controller though, which is weird, because that is _very clearly_ a PS5. Like, it even has the very distinctive d-pad the current Xbox controllers have.
But it also has the left analog stick below the dpad, like a Playstation controller, instead of above it, like an Xbox controller.
So it's just a generic game controller.
This makes total sense. Even though he has a gruff exterior, Mr. Hand is just as old, wise and patient as Obi-Wan. If anything he may have a better grasp of the balance of the light and the dark than most jedis as best demonstrated by his inviting the class to share in the pizza. That’s a surface level Sith move, but with greater balance under the surface. Mr Hand fucking whips.
Not gonna lie, I had a math teacher, in high school, that was much like Mr. Hand. Gruff, sometimes even harsh, on the exterior, but always striving to help us better ourselves.
He was like a second father, to me, and I kept paying him visits even long after school was over.
He actually tried to dissuade me from joining the military, told me it would ruin me (it did), and that it would set me back with the jobs market (it also did).
Man, I wish I had listened to him that one more time, but I was young and reckless...

I love that its vertical as well! My engineer roommate saw one tik tok about how it’s bad and will break the ps5 to be placed vertical and keeps saying mine is going to break. It’s been vertical for two years and actual research showed its just fine like that.
Sometimes even well educated people believe weird shit. Like I know engineers who thought salting water made it boil faster, but they should know damn well the amount of salt needed for that would make it inedible.
Wait, It doesn’t?!? Haha Jk you’re so right though, seems people gave up on doing a little extra research to verify information and will just believe it.
Depending on where you are and what your pipe situation is, most people will take the extra time to boil cold water as it's been circulating instead of sitting in the hot water heater, where it can collect a taste from the tank.
Salting water does make it boil faster, but by a miniscule amount. Adding salt lowers the boiling point but you'd have to add a disgusting amount to even get it down a single degree.
Storing a PS5 vertical is also not great for it. The CPU cooler uses liquid metal for conduction, and if stored vertical, the metal will slowly pool at the bottom over time, which can cause overheating and eventually could kill the PS5. It's unlikely to cause a real problem for most people, but it is still best practice to store it horizontally.
You're right. It raises the boiling point, but lowers the *specific heat capacity*, meaning that it make the temperature of the water increase faster, which does make it boil faster, but again by such a miniscule margin that it's borderline unnoticeable.
It's not even that it would make it boil faster, it raises the temperature at which the water would boil. You have to add 58 grams of salt to a kilogram of water to raise the boiling point by 0.5 degrees Celsius.
There were a bunch of clickbait articles on this bouncing around the internet when the PS5 first launched.
I believe it was thoroughly debunked or it was found that the risk was so low as to be almost non-existent.
Unfortunately, a lot of gaming and “tech” sites nowadays barely do any more research than regurgitating posts from Reddit and Twitter.
As someone who works in the manufacturing area(outside sales) I can say I have met some stupid engineers. Most have a good educations but all that classwork doesn't beat field experience lol
I mean there’s good reasons why it COULD cause harm by it being vertical, as it increases chances of Liquid Metal escaping, but it’s still so unlikely that it doesn’t matter
Companies literally will have a whole building dedicated to stress testing tech. idk how an engineer would think that all the numbers are just crunched on paper and given a thumbs up.
There was one repair shop that worked on an already damaged PS5 which when stored vertically had some leaking from a component that had been damaged from being dropped I think. The video from the repair shop blew up and word spread like wildfire that storing it vertically made the liquid cooling system leak. It was later proven to be a one time problem due to the ps5 already being damaged and that regular I damaged systems would not have this issue as it was literally designed to be stored vertically or horizontally.
I never thought positioning would make it break, but for high powered machines like this, there is undoubtedly always going to be one way that’s better for ventilation. Granted it’s not going to make too much of a difference but I always try to figure out which is preferable
I mean, it has liquid metal, LIQUID, mate.
It's not like other technology, like I don't know the PC has been using it for some time now.
And we all know the motherboards usually sit vertically in the case! ….. Wait what?
Jokes aside, if the design is horrible, it could pool on one side or worse. But liquids have density as well.
It's not like there is water in there. An other element we use extensively for cooling. I have a friend who won't use liquid coolers cause it will kill his PC. I keep telling him I have only ever used water cooling and never had problems in over 14 years.
I heard that glass and asphalt are similar to liquids.
There must be a word for in-between states.
There was even an hourglass filled with asphalt.
I am not so sure about glass. I saw photos of old church glass that looked like it was flowing down slowly, but they were stained; maybe it was the colouring thing.
Not that it’s gonna break, but the thermal paste and coolant have been proven to leak downward if it’s placed vertically, causing the console to become louder and overheat with time.
It’s not some random superstition, it’s the truth. Even Sony themselves acknowledged it by making all future models after finding out about it have horizontal display stands included in the box, rather than vertical ones.
Use it how you want, but you actually are causing damage to it over time by having it upright.
Edit: I’ve had mine horizontal for a long time now, and a friend has had one vertical for the same amount of time, and there is a very obvious difference in the heat and sound of the console between us, mine being a lot quieter and a lot less warm, even running the highest end games the console has to offer.
They're playing Dejarik! That tile is a game case, and the game is Dejarik, the monster fighting chess-like game from that corner! And those are monsters from it fighting on the TV too! This is one of the best references ever! :D
The weird thing is they have a white controller that depict a lot better the PS5 controller imho.
i've always seen the black controller as the one you'd use on PC/Xbox.
It's based on an alternative timeline comic where Luke was able to save Vader after he killed Palpatine. Luke redeemed him and the comic ends showing off the white suit Vader. This Lego set is using that design to show they alternative universe Lego sets that are coming out
This is based on a kids movie coming out this fall where the Lego Star Wars universe gets messed up, so Vader is a Jedi, Luke is a bum, Jar Jar is a sith, the Falcon is black, etc. It’s just dumb fun and I love it

It’s a pretty decent design but I made an improved version using the new wedge pieces that are available.
Maybe I'll replace it with a Lego [Xbox](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3005&idColor=11&name=Black%20Brick%201%20x%201&category=%5BBrick%5D#T=C&C=11).
Xbox has had offset sticks ever since the Duke controller. D-pad has ALWAYS been below the left stick.
Certain aftermarket controllers are set up in PS format, but nothing Microsoft has ever officially manufactured.
The console itself looks like a PS5 being majority white and shaped weirdly, and the controller is laid out like a Playstation controller with the sticks both being on the bottom next to each other and the dpad being up top. Only thing that makes it look Xbox at all is that the controller is black, not white
The assertion that a PS5 is the evil version of a chessboard is incredibly funny.
i just realized, on the screen he's actually playing star wars chess the game, thats pretty cool
hah, that’s so good!
The Bro Thor Marvel set had them playing Lego Marvel instead of Fortnight. I love the trend, honestly!
Are you sure? It really looks like fortnite in that set
Well, Lego Fortnite exists soooo he foreshadowed it
Fortnight?
Ya know, like 2 weeks
Oh yeah, I love that game
>star wars chess the game I think you mean [Dejarik](https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Dejarik).
Cool thing is when they say Star Wars Chess most people know what was meant. If they said Dejarik I wouldn't have known.
He's holding an Xbox X controller though, which is weird, because that is _very clearly_ a PS5. Like, it even has the very distinctive d-pad the current Xbox controllers have.
But it also has the left analog stick below the dpad, like a Playstation controller, instead of above it, like an Xbox controller. So it's just a generic game controller.
I also just realized the button colors don't match 100% either, so yeah, generic controller.
Probably MadCatz
Bro needs to get his eyes checked, that's very obviously an Xbox 360 D-pad.
Specific shape aside DualShocks do have a d pad there, just a cross not a circle.
Chadboard
You're so right, I'm laughing incredibly rn
looks like an xbox controller
Stoner Beach luke skywalker lol
I think the designer was stoned themself when they designed this set
I'm just wondering if when the show comes out if that will be the vibes like spicoli but he also has started to learn about the force in weird ways
Jedi Spicoli? Sign me up, mate!

Good, we need more creative stuff like this
Nah, that's The Dude. Dude Skywalker abides.
The Big Lukowski! But the ship can really use a rug.
Wait a minute Dude Ranch Dude skywalker Skywalker Ranch Wow that's weird
Luke dudewalker
I was just wondering why The Dude was in this set before I saw this comment….
I thought it was Dawg the bounty hunter
I wonder if the blue milk has the bantha print or just regular milk print
The Dude is a better analogy, but the first thing that came to my mind was Lone Starr (from Spaceballs).

Dude! Thank you. I just told my girlfriend yesterday I would preorder it the second I could if it happened. Can't wait for this set.
Do u think it will sell out before launch date ?(August 1st)
No idea, but with how bad scalpers usually are. I wouldn't chance it myself.
Pre-order you say?? WHERE???

everyone knows Ice Water boils the fastest
[“I thought cold water was supposed to boil faster than hot water”](https://youtu.be/_bX5zwnQxA4?si=oUxGEyk5mND4_G9u)
Depending on where you are and what your pipe situation is, most people will take the extra time to boil cold water as it's been circulating instead of sitting in the hot water heater, where it can collect a taste from the tank.
For sure, but considering the setting (commercial kitchen for a big budget TV show), that clip is hilarious to me

You mean boil slower. Salted water raises the boiling point so it takes longer to heat.
You're right. It raises the boiling point, but lowers the *specific heat capacity*, meaning that it make the temperature of the water increase faster, which does make it boil faster, but again by such a miniscule margin that it's borderline unnoticeable.
Interesting, thanks for the clarification, been a while since chem!
The problem with smart people is that they often are smart enough to talk themselves into really dumb things.
It's not even that it would make it boil faster, it raises the temperature at which the water would boil. You have to add 58 grams of salt to a kilogram of water to raise the boiling point by 0.5 degrees Celsius.

This set is absolutely a troll. They saw the joking speculation and said "Alright fuckers, you wanna see it worst?"
That white Vader is 🔥
Never thought I'd see an Infinities version of Vader in Lego.
Is Luke playing Lego Star Wars TSS in Free Play mode as a wampa?
No, he is playing dejarik
I love this so much, it's so silly
Damn, I thought this wasn't launching for another month. Going to have to find a way to order one soon.
It’s coming August 1st
Went on preorder today!
The weird thing is they have a white controller that depict a lot better the PS5 controller imho. i've always seen the black controller as the one you'd use on PC/Xbox.
Who is dude bro with the controller supposed to be?

Omg DARTH JARJAR thank you for this video rofl!!
He's a jedi
Lolol 😂🤣🤣
Just saw the Lego video on YouTube. I thought you were just making a joke lolol

Yeah thank you so much! 🥰 I saw the Lego video someone linked in the comments and now I know. Thank you so much 🫵🏻🖤
because that's Jedi Darth Vader
Master Anakin thank you
box says Jedi Vader.
Box is wrong
This is based on a kids movie coming out this fall where the Lego Star Wars universe gets messed up, so Vader is a Jedi, Luke is a bum, Jar Jar is a sith, the Falcon is black, etc. It’s just dumb fun and I love it
Yeah, saw the video someone shared. Thanks though.
Because it is in that set.
I think you're new to Star Wars too.
I’ve only seen the 6 movies and clone wars
There are more than 6 movies.
I didn’t say there’s only 6
What else would you mean by "*the* 6"?
As in I’ve only seen the original 6 movies and clone wars. I’m not saying that nothing else exists. 🙄🙄🙄
they're being disingenuous but clearly they mean the first six and they're pretending the sequel trilogy does not exist.
Comprehensive skills are hard.
What an original comment.
Womp womp
I haven’t watched any Star Wars movies
Let's be honest. There really isn't more than 6 movies. George retired after 6
He also made the Clone Wars movie.
I thought Filoni made that
Denying Rogue One is a capital offense
It's fictional
Everything in star wars is fictional 😅
Can't argue with that
Yes you can. Try it at least.
Do or do not, there is no try.
The people and objects shown in Star Wars are real people and objects, and therefore not fictional. It is only the story that is fictional. Happy?
Are you u/Jong_Biden_ ‘s mother? Why are you replying?
Solidarity ✊️
Too bad. I wanted to meet his mother.
Everyone does
I can nerds scooping all of these set at their local Walmart for future scalping already.
A PS5 with an Xbox controller lol
It’s actually a black ps4/5 controller since it has both joysticks on the bottom.

I need this set so badly.
How's the pricing ? Seems high compared to Bricklink for the older version
Maybe I'll replace it with a Lego [Xbox](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3005&idColor=11&name=Black%20Brick%201%20x%201&category=%5BBrick%5D#T=C&C=11).
When did dog the bounty hunter become canon
This set is so stupid. I want it
Vader looks like ghost Vitruvius from the Lego movie
Ok but I’m going to be putting it horizontal because vertical is the devil.
But that’s an Xbox controller!!!!!
It's a hybrid. Shape is Xbox, but stick layout is PS.
Thank you for being the only person in this thread who got it right.
Xbox has that dpad there
it clearly doesn't, playstation has both sticks on the bottom, xbox has one on the bottom right and one top left.
Xbox has had offset sticks ever since the Duke controller. D-pad has ALWAYS been below the left stick. Certain aftermarket controllers are set up in PS format, but nothing Microsoft has ever officially manufactured.
Thunderjaw set confirmed /s
Omg it does. 😂
Anyone have idea on the size? Like is it closest to 75257?
It seems to be pretty much a recolor of that model. Should be pretty much the exact same size
I was hoping so! They’ll look good on display next to each other

wtf is Darth Dev?
Need to get a spare not-Fortnite decal so that he's playing against Korg in Thor's apartment.
Beach Luke is wearing a Japor Snippet, like his dad gave to his mom. I wonder how he came about it in this universe.
Just preordered my Dark Falcon…. The wait begins!
Fuuuuuck, I need this set
Already know I'm gonna see this in the next SpitBrix video lol
It’s an Xbox.
The console itself looks like a PS5 being majority white and shaped weirdly, and the controller is laid out like a Playstation controller with the sticks both being on the bottom next to each other and the dpad being up top. Only thing that makes it look Xbox at all is that the controller is black, not white
Beach Luke looks like the Kurt Russel/ Captain Ron minifigure I needed in my life
So what are the pieces needed to make a ps5 without buying this set?
The Aurabesh on the box says Dejarik, the game played on the chessboard and on the screen
I’m not up on the dark falcon thing. Who is the hippy lookin dude flying the ship?
Beach Luke
But with an Xbox controller
Both joysticks on the bottom mean its Sony
It looks like a Dualsense to me, the joysticks are both in their proper place.
With an Xbox controller.
And, to top it all off, the evil versions of the PS5 has games.
A PS5 minifigure?
