![]() ![]() It’s fully articulated for maximum firepower, with a rotatable head and the legs jointed to match its on-screen counterpart. Is it an Imperial Walker or a guard dog? 75313 AT-AT can probably double as both, with the AT-AT standing at half-a-metre tall. If all that isn’t enough, 75331 is currently also the only way to get Kuiil, the grouchy Ugnaught who mentors Din in the first season. Meanwhile the bottom deck is filled with Din’s bounties, all frozen in carbonite stickers. Within the cockpit is the little ball for Grogu and room to store his cot in the back. With Din Djarin stalking the galaxy for his next bounty, the Razor Crest is meant to act as home and transport all in one. ![]() The only set on this list not inspired by the Original Trilogy, 75331 The Razor Crest comes from The Mandalorian. Impressively all the minifigures can squeeze in the cockpit, just like the films, and inside you’ll find the holochess board for R2-D2 to compete with Chewbacca. Every detail of Han’s beloved freighter is captured in greys and dark reds, even all the dents and scuffs. When it released in 2007 it was the largest ever LEGO set and an ultimate display of what the brick can achieve. 10179 Millennium Falcon – 5,197 piecesįor a long time 10179 Millennium Falcon was the holy grail for so many LEGO Star Wars fans, commanding an eye watering price on secondary markets.

In fact the only thing this set is missing is an interior (something Blocks magazine addressed in our Mod Squad section), which is surprising considering 75252 Imperial Star Destroyer has two Imperial officers ready for Vader to Force choke. It captures the multiple levels of the Destroyer, and the huge ion-engines at the rear, all finished with tons of greebling. Who can forget the opening of A New Hope, when the Tantive IV is swallowed up in the shadow of a Star Destroyer? This version of the Devastator (Imperial ship names aim to intimidate) is way more than just a big grey triangle. 75252 Imperial Star Destroyer – 4,784 pieces Inside saw improvements through more sophisticated parts usage, and the Death Star Gunners finally got screen-accurate printed consoles. The protocol droid was even completely replaced by some Imperial officers instead (great if you need an excuse to own the two). It takes advantage of the new pieces and custom moulds that had appeared in the eight years between the two iterations. 75159 Death Star did have quite the upgrade, especially for the minifigure printing. There is another Death Star on this list and it’s a revision of 10188. 10188 is a clear homage to a classic Kenner Star Wars playset, combining play into a model that is still the Death Star at heart.

When it was introduced in 1999 and helped save the LEGO Group from bankruptcy, no-one could have predicted its success and legacy, yet now LEGO Star Wars is an evergreen staple. It could be argued that it’s because of LEGO Star Wars that fans now have such big sets across other themes.
