It’s no surprise that a Lego version of the recently released Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer was going to be made, but what is surprising is that such an awesome remake was made within 24 hours of the teaser hitting the Web.

On Saturday (Nov. 29), YouTube user Snooperking took to the Internet to post his shot-for-shot recreation of the upcoming J.J. Abrams’s film. In the video’s description, the Star Wars fan explains that he started the project as soon as the trailer came out and proceeded to build Lego versions of “the Falcon, the X-Wing, the speeder bike thingy, a mini tie fighter” as well as all of the sets. Yeah, he must have worked at lightning speed. 

And labeling the video as a shot-for-shot remake is no joke—the YouTube user made sure to fit in every moment of the trailer. 

There’s John Boyega’s character … 

… The rolling droid … 

… An ominous army of Stormtroopers … 

… Daisy Ridley’s character riding through the sand dunes of Tatooine … 

… And even the new lightsaber design (along with, possibly, the mysterious character played by Girls star Adam Driver?). 

Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits theaters Dec. 18, 2015.
