When rotated, the barrel's Lego structures strike trigger levers that in turn press keys on a keyboard –

playing the film's signature theme tune.

According to the press release, the barrel was constructed by pro Lego builders Rene Hoffmeister and Axel Al-Rubaie, and features well-known locations from the series, including the Death Star, Tatooine, and Endor.
