This is a Lego Imperial Star Destroyer. You probably have no idea how to hard it is to get one of these. Amazon is fresh out. The Lego store on Michigan Avenue said it is backordered until February. The South Loop Target used to have just one, but I snagged it to ship back east, where it's apparently even harder to find.

Side note: You probably have no idea how much it costs to ship one of these things halfway across the country in time for the first day of Chanukah.

Side side note: Can you believe what Lego sets can do these days? When I was a kid, there were blocks of varying sizes, a couple of mechanical bits (not powered, of course) and some little people with feet that fit into the blocks. Kids these days may not be able to point to China on a map, but they can now whip up a Predator drone in their bedroom capable of sending back video.
