Fans of Star Trek have something to celebrate. After nearly 60 years, Lego has released a new set based on the iconic U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D from Star Trek: The Next Generation.

The set has 3,600 pieces and, once built, measures 10.5 inches high, 23.5 inches long, and 18.5 inches wide. It’s a detailed replica of the ship that helped relaunch the franchise in 1987 and became a fan favorite over the years.

This new release comes from the collaboration between Lego and Paramount, which owns the Star Trek franchise. Before this, block-based Star Trek sets were mostly made by companies like Mega Blocks.

They were okay, but they never had the polish or detail of a Lego set. According to sources, the Lego Icons Enterprise is carefully designed to capture the shape and details of the ship, including a detachable command saucer, colored nacelles, a secondary hull, and a shuttle bay that opens to show two mini shuttlepods.

Fans will also get mini figures of the main characters from The Next Generation. Of course, this includes Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Commander William Riker, Lieutenant Worf, Lieutenant Commander Data, Dr. Beverly Crusher, Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge, Counsellor Deanna Troi, Bartender Guinan, and Wesley Crusher.

Each figure comes with their own accessories like phasers, tricorders, and an engineering case.

The set is meant for adults 18 and older and comes with a display stand. It will be available on November 28 and costs $399.99 in the U.S., £349.99 in the U.K., and €379.99 in Europe.

Lego is planning a Black Friday launch video featuring Number One and frequent Star Trek director Jonathan Frakes, who even signed one of the sets. One lucky fan will get a chance to win this signed set.

Lego is also offering a bonus for early buyers. Anyone who orders the Enterprise between November 28 and December 1 will receive a free Lego Icons Star Trek: Type-15 Shuttlepod. This smaller set has 261 pieces, opens up, and comes with a mini figure of Ensign Ro Laren, a character who appeared in TNG and returned in the third season of Picard.
