This is an OLED TV with a huge stand including cable management. According to the latest information, it costs Stand model about 7500 euros.

In addition to artwork as a TV, LG is releasing the new C2 series of OLED TVs as a limited edition Star Wars. In Saturn there is something about it LG OLED C2 Star Wars Edition for 3,270 euros. If you want one of those galaxy TVs, you have to be fast. Only 501 copies will be delivered to Germany. In addition to an adapted user interface, the Smart TV has some cues from Star Wars. Technically speaking, the Special Edition is compatible with the regular LG OLED C2. LG has already installed the Evo Panel in some C1 OLED TVs, where you have to “unlock” the light output higher in the service menu, but you risk the warranty. New, on the other hand, is the fifth generation of the ARM CPU, which should enable a better upgrade, and the new WebOS 22, with which it is possible to wirelessly transfer content from mobile devices to the TV via NFC, among other things. All LG TVs shown here come with HDMI 2.1 with Nvidia G-Sync and AMD Freesync Premium. Additionally, Nvidia Geforce Now and Google Stadia cloud gaming services are supported by pre-installed apps.
