The ever-expanding galaxy of brick-building kits based on the Star Wars franchise has welcomed six new Lego kits into its fleet. For starship enthusiasts, there are two new budget-friendly display models from Attack of the Clones and Return of the Jedi up for grabs. But we suspect the most popular of the new Star Wars Lego sets will be the 1,048-piece set starring Grogu from The Mandalorian. Check out all six of the new sets below, and make sure to take a look at Amazon’s hub page for all of the 100-plus new Lego sets that launched on January 1.
New Star Wars Lego Sets
It’s also worth noting that the newest Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series Lego set, the 3,942-piece Jabba’s Sail Barge from Return of the Jedi, is now available at major retailers, including Amazon.
$100
This new 1,048-piece kit lets you build an adorable Baby Yoda figure and the little guy’s iconic Hover Pram. The Grogu figure is posable and comes with a few delightful accessories, including snacks (frog and cookie) and a toy to play with (a shifter ball). You’ll also get a Grogu Lego minifigure and a display placard.
This isn’t the first time Lego has released an adorable Baby Yoda buildable figure. There’s a larger, 1,073-piece build that focuses purely on Grogu. Unfortunately, that set is retired, so you’ll need to pay a slight premium to get it now (MSRP was $90).
$50
The Acclamator-Class Assault Ship set is a miniaturized version of the massive starships that carried entire companies of Clone Troopers during the Clone Wars–and served as the blueprint for what would eventually become the Imperial Star Destroyer. The finished 450-piece kit measures nine inches long and five inches long, and can be displayed on the included stand. At $50, this is one of the most affordable Lego Star Wars display models for adults.
$70
For fans of more obscure Star Wars vehicles, Lego has also launched a buildable model of the Home One Starcruiser that served as part of the Rebel Alliance fleet in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. The kit also includes a tiny Nebulon-B Medical Frigate to build and a display stand to attach both ships to.
Just like the Acclamator-Class Assault Ship, the Home One Starcruiser is a black-box model geared toward older Star Wars fans who like to display their Lego creations.
$45
This 290-piece vehicle set is based on the Jedi Starfighter flown by Ahsoka Tano in the Star Wars: Clone Wars animated series. The kit also includes minifigures of Ahsoka, Anakin Skywalker, and an R7-A7 Astromech droid.
$70
Sticking with the prequel era, the ARC-170 from Revenge of the Sith has been turned into a 497-piece Lego playset. This Republic spacecraft features collapsible wings that served as the basis for what would eventually become the iconic X-Wing Starfighter. The kit also includes minifigures of three Clone Trooper pilots and a green R4-P44 Astromech droid.
$30
This miniaturized version of Din Djarin’s–aka the Mandalorian–modified N-1 Naboo Starfighter includes minifigures for Mando with the Dark Saber, Grogu in his Hover Pram, and an R5-D4 astromech droid. The Starfighter features cockpit spaces for Mando and Grogu to sit in.
This is a new addition to Lego’s preschooler (four and up) lineup, a series of small-scale Lego kits that bridge the gap between Duplo and Lego.
