LEGO Star Wars Set Discussion 2026 - READ FIRST POST!!!

I meant the inconsistency for 18+ sets as a whole. Everything is aggressively priced aimed at people who are supposed to have the disposable income to afford it. So it's not unreasonable to expect everything to include at least a single minifigure. Helmets across multiple licensed themes should have them. Like there's no good reason why TLOTR can have them and SW doesn't. Again, the former instantly included a single fig can be considered a step in the right direction. Every set that is part of the Diorama Collection, regardless of their represented scale, should have them. The Starship Collection should definitely feature them across the board. UCS sets obviously have at least a pair included for the longest time. Now the fact Busts have them right from the start may be a good sign for things to come. And if not, I at least want Lego to come out and explain to me why they're so freaking greedy and don't give people a little treat in exchange for much of their hard earned money! 

Here's the thing, though- we haven't had any Star Wars helmets since the LOTR and F1 ones with minifigs release. For all we know, lego listened to us and is going to start including minifigures in the helmet sets.

I will actually say I think the podrace and trench run dioramas would look weird with minifigures as unlike the helmets/midi-scale ships/busts, there's no separate display stand- the diorama takes up the entire build. If you put figures on the border of it, it's gonna look like there's a giant Anakin standing in Begger's Canyon.

The Midi-scale ships should include 1-2 minifigures, I agree, but I wouldn't count it as an example of some sort of horrible greed from lego, moreso a potential misunderstanding of the adult market. It used to be that UCS sets were for hardcore fans/model kit building "nerds", and all other sets were for children. "Adults Welcome", across the board with things like the Icons subline, tends to generally be very very light on minifigures. I think lego either assumed or more likely had some form of data to back up that non-AFOL adults were turned away by minifigs or viewed them as "kiddie". So lego used them sparsely in sets meant to attract adults who aren't generally as into legos, model kits, etc. Unlike the UCS sets, these aren't meant for the guys who never stopped building lego, or the guys who go down to the gunpla store every other week. But I think it's clear they've realized that most people aren't so offput by minifigures- the busts they started last year include them, helmets now include them, etc. They're clearly starting to roll them out, and hopefully that does catch up to any 2027 helmets/midi-scale ships.

Lego should have made a Darth Malgus or Darth Plageius bust + minifig. 

I get that those would be great minifigs to get/get again, but being realistic, they wouldn't make much sense as starting busts. Everybody knows Vader- a lot fewer people know malgus or plageius. I don't think plageius even had a canonical visual depiction until The Acolyte, which I wouldn't exactly call a breakout hit. Even the Yoda, as offputting as it looks, will probably do better than those would.

I think including a Minifigure in these types of sets benefits the casual buyers, but for hardcore collectors it's pretty pointless. Although sets like the Invisible hand and Home One could've given us some cool figures.

They already have a vader, sure, but the point is moreso that you have this one to display with the bust. Like I have I believe 4 vaders- one in the death star diorama, one in the bespin duel set, one (with some battle damage) in front of my imperial army, and one standing behind palpatine on a small display with some royal guards and high brass.

I cannot remember the last time I saw a Star Wars set as ugly as that Yoda .

If we're not counting sets with a reason for being compromised like some of the smart brick offerings, I guess it'd be the last buildable yoda? The Toys R Us Giraffe from the mid 2010s?

CloneCommando… I'm more than willing to produce a parody poster for the TIE Avengers spinoff on my own time… I just request that we cast @Jason Todd is my God as Hela.

Very enticing. I suppose we need to explain how the you encounter the Inmates of the Aslume in Synergy War.

Odd choice. I haven’t heard from him in a long time. Any specific reason for that role?

 

Anyway. For Day 328, here you go. I’m not sure what the Asgard plot is. But instead of Sakaar you get thrown into the most lawless world in the universe… Lego City.

Throwing Malgus in a set like that also defeats the point of the anniversary figures

That was Malak. Malgus was made in 2012 in the Sith Interceptor.

So a Malak or Revan remake wouldn’t defeat the point of the anniversary figures. Just as Survivor Cal wouldn’t when looking at Young Leia (Coughing Baby)

 

Oh. Wait. If Jedi III is releasing in 2027 (4 years between JFO and JS so probably same wait) I think we can kiss goodbye at any chances of sets if Shadow Lord, Starfighter, Smart Play and Ahsoka S2 are demanding sets in addition to the known list.

Oh whoops  Yeah, but my point still stands. And considering what Yoda looks like, Malgus would look downright HORRIFYING

Yeah okay, you're stating a fact. While we don't know for sure yet whether Lego listened to the fans, there's no shame in hoping the other person to be right and you want to be wrong on something, which might as well apply here. I currently lack some much needed nuance to properly engage such a conversation. Resulting in an glass half empty style of commentary.

Yeah, from an design standpoint, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense, I suppose. I had another image of the edges around the actual Diorama in my mind. Thought it was closer to design than the aforementioned Starship Collection, but it wasn't. Still kinda wished they mad it work, though. Just didn't feel right to release no new TPM characters for it's 25th anniversary.

I perceive it as being overly greedy, because these sets, no matter how you slice it, are priced very highly... even by Lego Star Wars standards. I don't know if there was some misunderstanding on Lego's behalf regarding their audience's preferences. The brick and build quality can already be met or even exceeded by many other companies out there. While Lego doesn't like that one bit and sends their lawyer army after them, they have something their competitors don't: the minifigure. It's arguably their biggest weapon. They protect it like a hawk. So other than being too busy counting banknotes, it boggles my mind why they sometimes don't make better use of it.

That's fascinating. I feel like it's completely the other way around. Casual fans, especially those who don't typically buy Lego, may see a cool looking ship they remember from their childhood and impulse buy it as a cool looking display piece. Whereas a hardcore collector, who is actually into both bricks and source material, may want or expects something more out of it. The average guys and girls wouldn't care or even notice the lack of a, say, Shmi Skywalker minifig in the Mos Espa Podrace Diorama. A hardcore fan or collector probably would. Unless you define a "hardcore collector" only or primarily by his desire for actual sets, rather than wanting cool exclusive minifigures as well. 

I was just thinking casual collectors might not have a Vader or Yoda, where as a hardcore collector would just be getting duplicates. I for example have a bunch of Darth Vader's, I don't care about getting another one.

Yeah I suppose it does add a bit to the display of the bust.

Buildable Chewie was pretty bad.

considering we got Cal as an anniversary figure I'd say it's unlikely we get any sets.

Ah, I was generally talking, but you were talking about the Bust's figures specifically. Fair enough then and same here. I don't need another standard Vader (and Yoda) either. 

 

Maybe that's what made me all worked up over it. The mainstream figures we do get in 18+ sets... the more obscure but still requested ones we don't. It was less "oh look, the Busts at least are coming with minifigures right away" and more like "the less interesting or appealing 18+ sets are actually launching with ones". Literally the difference between a glass being half full or half empty. But yeah, I'm gonna leave it at that. Let's just see how it all pans out.

I don’t think getting Cal in his Jedi: Fallen Order outfit as an anniversary figure necessarily precludes future sets based on later games, the problem is more so that the Lego Star Wars team are happy to ignore the games entirely despite their popularity. It’s sad and to this day, I fail to understand why they can’t throw fans a bone and just produce one solid set based on the games all these years later. It isn’t a lot to ask for.

Regarding these busts, yawn. Vader looks decent, Yoda’s face looks horrible but the double handed saber stance is a great choice. But overall, these bring hardly anything new to the table.

Yeah that's why I mentioned the invisible hand and Home One midi scale could've came with some desirable figs, like Admiral Ackbar and Count Dooku.

Yup- if we get another round of star wars helmets and they don't include figures, I'll join you in complaining. But as-is, there's no indication this is anything other than positive.

While it would be nice if movies got a little more for their anniversaries, I don't think the podrace diorama would have gotten use new characters. Probably just Anakin and if we were lucky Sebulba. (Actually, I don't think anniversaries for the first six films have gotten new characters from their films in some time. I don't believe ROTJ or ESB did- AOTC did, I guess, but I almost want to call that coincidence.- EDIT: Nevermind, ROTS got a bunch of... new clones. Maybe it is still a coincidence, but there's at least precedent from the other two prequel films.)

Honestly I don't think the prices of the starship collection are anything crazy for the theme- some of them are honestly a lot more reasonably priced than standard system sets. And if lego put minifigures in them, I'm sure they could justify significantly higher prices. I really do think the reason they haven't put figures in yet is that they think it'll scare off some of the target demo who doesn't want to buy the legos they think are "for kids".

Great work as always. Closing the gap until the New (TIE) Avengers

Jedi lll (or fortunately in this case) may be even longer- games tend to get teaser trailers pretty long before release (Case in point, Zero Company received a full trailer almost a full year ago and still doesn't have a release date) and we still haven't heard anything about Jedi lll. They also lost their director a year or two ago (he's OK just not on the project anymore), so that may delay them further or account for why we haven't gotten any sort of teaser yet.

Yup- I mean from all the people asking for minifigs with helmets we can see that there's a market for it. Every helmet but P1 Cody and boushh have had minifigures readily availible around their release.

Right, wouldn't want to leave him out. Lego even acknowledged him as ugly in RTG IIRC.

Lego seems to be in a bit of a strange spot video game wise. On the one hand, they seem to be increasingly into the gaming concept, whether it's console sets, making mario/pokemon/sonic/horizon sets, etc. But on the other hand, they're really skittish about any sets based on video games from existing IPs. No Jedi stuff. No Marvel Rivals. No Hogwarts Legacy. And they were/are all massively popular, too. (Ironically, they've at least thrown a bone to acknowledging Batman: Arkham, despite that series being M-rated)

I really, really wish we could have. We had a few years there where they had a deal with Amazon to make a $130ish D2C set, and it was usually based on something more obscure (Vader's Castle based on Vader Immortal, and initially the Razor Crest back when nobody realized how big that series was going to be and lego was going the late-stage rebels seasons coverage route.)

I could be wrong but I kind of remember someone at Lego saying they wouldn't make play sets from Fallen Order because it's too violent. Doesn't make sense to me considering we got TFU sets though.

I believe Survivor’s teaser released around 10 months before the game. I remember something happening in summer 2022.

And we’re only 1/4 into 2026 so it’s possible we get something by the end of the year.

The director thing is concerning though. But still a better situation than the KOTOR remake I guess.

Lego literally made a BF2 set as recently as 2023 so they are really confusing regarding videogames.

Yeah I think that was a "the clone commander is basically a pilot" situation where the designers weren't cleared to tell us the real answer. My guess is lego didn't know whether or not the game would do well, but obviously there's probably a PR or legal thing somewhere with saying "we didn't have faith that another company's project with this IP would succeed with our target demos".

I like the implication that the TIE Avenger is what's been causing the perceived decay in the theme despite having only existed for a year. This would fit the time travel lore/immortality lore you've been building for yourself, though. The TIE Avenger must be like an Anchor Being for lego sets.

 

I want to say it was May 2022, I feel like I remember exactly where I was when it released (tutoring a kid, and since he was also a star wars fan we just stopped to watch it), but didn't the game come out at the tail end of April 2023? It's possible we get something this year, but if we don't see a trailer soon I'd start worrying about it. Is there a celebration soon? That'd be our make-or-break for a 2027 release (but honestly, if the game doesn't release until Late 2027 I think we might be OK even with 2027 getting frontloaded with 2026 stuff. All it takes is one slot to finally get us the Stinger Mantis.)

This is why I'm so sure that the "two violent" thing was speculation or because they couldn't give us the real reason. Plus we did end up getting a Cal minifigure anyway. The Battlefront 2 set in 2023 worked just fine because they were 501st clone troopers- I would say most sales were probably from people who didn't even play battlefront ll, but it's got wider appeal outside the game since it's a clone battle pack. I would suspect that the 2019 one may have had lower sales than hoped for. You combine that with the 2020 avengers video game crashing and burned, which probably hurt lego a bit with how many sets they made where the figures were based on it, and I could see them deciding sets based on videogames from film franchise IPs they had just weren't worth the risk. I do hope they'll reorient themselves like they did with the TV show sets- they could have made a killing off Rivals sets, and I do think a few Fallen Order sets could do well. I definitely think the Stinger Mantis would have outsold the Onyx Cinder or Evil Falcon.

Next Celebration is in 2027. But yeah, or an imperial BP or a patrol gunship would also be good non-risky set candidates which they should do. Maybe even a AT ST if Smart Play is discontinued early.

They should also do more BF2 Style battlepacks. It’s just a good format. And it’s not even risky if they’re basic classes. I’m not sure why they’re not doing that.

Yes, definitely. A real scummy move by Lego if that was actually the plan and they scrapped it. Which we have reason enough to believe they did based on the display plaque's design. I mean, could it really be any more obvious?

Ha, I would have gladly taken that Sebulba, thank you. As for last year, I too think the Clone Extravaganza more coincidentally or conveniently matched ROTS anniversary than anything else, so they just went with it. Otherwise we would probably have received some sets we'd associate more with the special occasion. Palpatine's Arrest Remake says hi and then goes back crying in the corner.

Yeah, I may become just numb to the price policy for the Lego Star Wars theme. To me, nearly everything is more expensive than it reasonably should be. It's just a matter of "how much too much". The Starship Collection clearly doesn't feature the worst pricing you've ever seen. That honor, like you said, goes to some of the system scale sets, especially Lego's modern idea of "flagship sets". But I'd argue they're still expensive enough to make them come with a single minifigure. I agree to disagree with there being a justification to charge a little extra for including just one minifig. Don't get me wrong, the actual ships are gorgeous looking display pieces. But given their scale, they're, well, on the tiny side of things. And when I look at the price points, they're not THIS tiny. This is Lego penny pinching one more time because they can.

It’s day #331. Out of who knows how many. We do not gamble with TIE Avengers.

As you can see, we are joined in this film by the Inmates of the Aslume. They are fellow masters of delusion.

The Starship Collection clearly doesn't feature the worst pricing you've ever seen. That honor, like you said, goes to some of the system scale sets, especially Lego's modern idea of "flagship sets". 

You’re not alone.

I don’t know man, the Kylo Shuttle was pretty awful for price. Like Hoopty and X-Jet level egregious.

Hot damn, that's epic! Once again, well done, Clone Commander Meme Machine. 

I like how my profile picture's coloring makes it merge with the background. Don't like to be the talk of the town anyways. So this design works wonders for my personal taste. This way I can stay m-m-mysterious.

Ha, I knew there was something  supporting my claim of the aggressive pricing. I completely forgot this thing existed, but somehow you are here to remind me of that. And I absolutely agree, this is modern flagship sets levels of bad. Everything else is either just a little bit too expensive or moderately overpriced.

Watch Jedi 3 be cancelled because 3rd Star Wars games always get cancelled.

I thought that was just the battlefronts?

They should also do more BF2 Style battlepacks. It’s just a good format. And it’s not even risky if they’re basic classes. I’m not sure why they’re not doing that. 

Well they seem pretty hardstuck on clone and/or mandalorian battle packs. There's only one mandalorian (Nobody come at me with a "technically". He's a Mando) in BF2, and as far as the clones go they've got plenty of film/tv legions to go through first.

 Well, I call you the Prophet of Positivity for a reason, dear Mando Man. 

Ha, I would have gladly taken that Sebulba, thank you. As for last year, I too think the Clone Extravaganza more coincidentally or conveniently matched ROTS anniversary than anything else, so they just went with it. Otherwise we would probably have received some sets we'd more associate with the special occasion. Palpatin'es Arrest Remake says hi and then goes back crying in the corner. 

Yeah, I may become just numb to the price policy for the Lego Star Wars theme. To me, nearly everything is more expensive than it reasonably should be. It's just a matter of "how much too much". The Starship Collection clearly doesn't feature the worst pricing you've ever seen. That honor, like you said, goes to some of the system scale sets, especially Lego's modern idea of "flagship sets". But I'd argue they're still expensive enough to make them come with a single minifigure. I agree to disagree with there being a justification to charge a little extra for including just one minifig. Don't get me wrong, the actual ships are gorgeous looking display pieces. But given their scale, they're, well, on the tiny side of things. And when I look at the price points, they're not THIS tiny. This is Lego penny pinching one more time because they can. 

Thank you- I'm not sure I always live up to that one but I'll do my best. I am at least one of the people championing the hopecore of there potentially still being an august wave.

I agree- it kinda seems like it was just because they wanted to put out more clones. Most of the anniversaries haven't gotten many playsets anyway- I think it's generally one playset if any.

Oh, absolutely, I'm just saying as far as the overpricing goes I think the starship collection sets aren't the worst offenders for what's included.

Very well done. The road to Smartday approaches. (I know it was already Ultron, but I feel like they're the biggest threat facing this theme.)

That one was bad, but it was the only one that I think was at that level. I have no idea what happened with that, but the rest of the collection is more reasonably priced IMO.

The Tantive IV and Venator are pretty bad as well, at least they have all printed pieces though.

KOTOR 3, Jedi Knight 3, Force unleashed 3, and the fact it happened twice with battlefront is crazy.

Two torsos (torsi?) leaked! One is Pershing‘s, the other must belong to an Imperial from the AT-AT set, judging by the fur printing  At first I thought it could be one of the warlords, but the rank insignia suggests something else.

Edit: I looked at the trailer again and the rank insignia is correct, it is one of the warlords! Weird, I thought they‘d have a similar rank to Tarkin. The more colourful squares, the higher the rank, I thought, but I guess not

Spoiler

It’s this fine fellow

And here’s the AT AT officer from the leaked trailers who’s a general looking at the rank plaque.

 

I actually think this new figure implies we’re getting a Imperial Remnant Fun-time Hideout as I don’t see them including two officers in the AT AT, and why would you not include the one that we’ve known is in been in the AT AT scene for two years now?

Also the AT AT is likely August, and I’m not sure if those sets would be this far into production.

It would also explain why the AT RT Attack’s turret has pins to open it up specifically. So it can also connect to a remnant base.

There better also be a TIE Avenger (Day #332!) and Remnant BP coming by the way!

The helmet was pretty stupidly priced as well. Imagine how funny it would be if this was an Adam Driver/ JJ Abrams tax.

Two counterpoints:

• The only unknown M&G set is the $100 one, and as you pointed out yourself, its PPR and age rating suggest a buildable figure. Unless you wanna sacrifice the $70 set and thus abandon all hope for our glorious TIE Avenger! The cult leader is turning on our cause!! NOOOOOOO 
• Yes, the AT-AT is scheduled for August, but parts of the set could well be in production already. Remember the One Piece parts that leaked in January last year or the Trudgen faceprint that leaked in July of 2019?  Both were even earlier than this!

Touché

I don’t want to abandon my beloved. Which is why I’m hoping this is 75450.

I’m still holding out hope there’s a couple of unknown set numbers. Cause we need a TIE Avenger, the remnant fortress and a remnant battlepack.

But if he’s in the AT AT I hope we get both commanders as my army needs a field officer.

I know it's just a polybag, but I like the mini Razor Crest. I want to see how they attach the cockpit section to give it that angle.
