If you’re new to Advent Calendars, be very, very careful when opening each door. They’re made of cardboard and can easily tear if you force them open too strongly.

Slave 1 made its first appearance in Empire Strikes Back and is known for its unique “clothes iron” shape. The Slave 1 model is designed quite well and captures the general shape of the ship.
