Over 30 Lego Star Wars units have been launched in 2025, which, in case you’re a collector, is an terrible lot to maintain up with. Particularly contemplating that this 12 months we have additionally seen the most costly Lego Star Wars set ever launched (the Final Collector’s Sequence Dying Star, with its eye-watering $999.99 price ticket — however extra on that later). It’s been a really sturdy 12 months for units, although, with vary of playsets and show units, and many to please each adults and children alike.
The Star Wars universe has had a quiet 12 months with the second season of Andor on Disney Plus and… Nicely, that is about it. With units sometimes primarily based on present TV reveals and films, Lego hasn’t had an excessive amount of new materials to work with, which is probably why we’ve seen so many reimagined fashions. A brand new Dying Star, a brand new Grogu, AT-S, we might go on.
Playsets
There’s one factor to be mentioned in regards to the Lego Star Wars playsets of 2025: They have been costly. Exterior of battle packs and microfighters, the most cost effective set launched this 12 months was $29.99 (A 92-piece 4+ Mando and Grogu’s N-1 Starfighter). Pocket-money priced units have merely not existed this 12 months, with nearly all of playsets costing upwards of $69.99 — some considerably extra.
There’s the 815-piece Republic Juggernaut, for instance, with a $159.99 price ticket that rivals some Final Collector’s Sequence units. Made up of 813 items, it is a quite distinctive set because of its 10 giant wheels. And due to steering that works just by tilting the mannequin, it is a enjoyable set to play with.
There’s additionally the 976-piece Battle of Felucia Separatist MTT, one other set with a price ticket of $159.99. Based mostly on The Clone Wars, this blue and grey automobile comes with a military of Battle Droids and Commando Droids that includes loads of shifting components, stud shooters and opening panels to entry the inside.
Neither of them is a nasty set, nevertheless it does make us surprise what the cut-off worth must be for a playset. It is some huge cash for one thing that youngsters will roll and swoosh round. Extra moderately, we have had the $54.99 Power Burner Snowspeeder, the one set to launch this 12 months beneath Lego’s enjoyable ‘Rebuild the Galaxy’ sub-theme. There was additionally the 707-piece Jango Fett’s Starship, which value $69.99 — a pleasant different for individuals who did not need to pay for the bigger UCS model.
A smattering of different units end off the round-up of Lego Star Wars playsets from 2025, together with Ahsoka’s Jedi Interceptor for $44.99 and a $69.99 Insurgent U-Wing Starfighter. There are some respectable units in right here, nevertheless it’s laborious to not be a bit of disenchanted with the shortage of sub-$40 units.
Show units
The place playsets have lacked a bit of in 2025, Lego Star Wars show units have definitely shone. These units have are available a variety of sizes and styles, with surprisingly cheap costs in some circumstances. Not all units carry an 18+ age score, with some builds being extra family-friendly than others (together with the wonderful Grogu and Hover Pram, which we rated very extremely originally of the 12 months).
It has been an awesome 12 months for mid-size ships, with three extra of those added to Lego’s line-up: Kylo Ren’s Command Shuttle, Dwelling One Starcruiser and Acclamator-Class Assault Ship. Carrying a price ticket of simply $49.99, we predict the Acclamator-Class Assault Ship is likely one of the finest Lego Star Wars units of the 12 months, packing in a large amount of element in a small, manageable package deal.
The Brick-Constructed Star Wars Brand has additionally been a pleasing shock, and a set we completely loved constructing this 12 months. Its MSRP is simply $59.99, which feels cheap sufficient, however we have continuously seen it discounted, too. Whereas it won’t be essentially the most thrilling set ever designed, it is an awesome addition to any Star Wars show or makes for an awesome backdrop.
Lego Star Wars helmets have had 12 months, after a two-year hiatus between March 2023 and March 2025. They got here again with a bang, with three helmets making it onto cabinets: Kylo Ren, Jango Fett and AT-AT Driver. An important choice, with the standout being the AT-AT Driver because of its distinctive design and colourful injection of pink.
That is removed from it, both. We have additionally had a powerful collection of 10+ and 12+ age-rated show fashions, a few of which we have by no means seen earlier than. We have already talked about Grogu with Hover Pram, however we additionally received a mannequin of Ok-2SO, Chopper, a Battle Droid with STAP and, after all, a brick-built Wicket the Ewok.
Final Collector’s Sequence units
2025 has been a momentous 12 months for UCS units, for a couple of motive. First, we have had three Final Collector’s Sequence units in 12 months – that is the primary time it is occurred since 2002. Second, one of many units (the Dying Star) is a record-breaker on two counts: it is the biggest Star Wars set ever launched, by way of piece rely, and it is the most costly Lego set so far.
However first, let’s speak in regards to the two smaller UCS units. First was Jango Fett’s Firespray Class Starship, launched in Might. Costing $299.99, it’s extremely a lot a mid-priced set, and being just like Boba Fett’s Starship (and Slave 1 earlier than it), it is not essentially the most elusive or engaging set available on the market. Following it in August got here the AT-ST Walker. Once more, not essentially the most progressive set — we have had a number of AT-STs earlier than — nevertheless it’s the primary time we have had an UCS model. And with a price ticket of $199.99, it is one of the crucial moderately priced Final Collector’s fashions we’ve had in years. An enormous win for individuals who haven’t got a big Lego price range however nonetheless need one thing aimed toward grownup collectors.
And for the individuals who do have an enormous Lego price range? That is the place the $999.99 Dying Star is available in. We have now combined emotions about this set. On the one hand, it is massively spectacular because of its aspect. Alternatively, it is too costly and the truth that it is solely a cutaway of the Dying Star, quite than a whole sphere, offers us pause. Is it pretty much as good as 2016’s Dying Star? It is down to private opinion, actually.
General, it is protected to say we have been spoiled on the UCS entrance this 12 months, with one thing to go well with virtually all budgets. We’re intrigued to see if we’ll get three units in 2026, or if Lego will return to delivering the usual two.
Festive specials
We had to point out the unbelievable Gingerbread AT-AT Walker, which was launched alongside this 12 months’s festive units. Costing $59.99 and being made up of 697 items, it not solely presents glorious worth for cash, nevertheless it’s one of the crucial enjoyable Lego Star Wars units we have seen shortly. This gingerbread-colored AT-AT is embellished with vacation lights and white strips made to appear to be icing — it is merely lovable.
In fact, we additionally received an compulsory Star Wars Creation calendar for 2025. Its worth has remained regular at $44.99, because it has been for numerous years, though its worth is questioned by how a lot you just like the minifigures and miniature builds included in any given 12 months. This 12 months, the standout minifigures are a novel printed C3PO and Jawa carrying a vacation sweater.
In abstract
It’s been a really sturdy 12 months for Lego Star Wars, notably for grown-ups and collectors. For Star Wars followers with an extra of disposable money, the Final Collector’s Sequence Dying Star is definitely essential. However even for followers with extra restricted earnings, the wide selection of show fashions obtainable has made 2025 an excellent 12 months certainly.
It is maybe not been an awesome 12 months for playsets, with the very best playsets costing nearly as a lot as a lower-priced UCS set. There have been only a few units beneath $40, apart from a smattering of battle packs and Microfighters, however we see these yearly. Hopefully, Lego strengthens its choices on the backside finish of its worth vary for subsequent 12 months.
General, although, we won’t be too disenchanted. The nice definitely outweighs the dangerous, with some really distinctive units touchdown on cabinets over the past 12 months. We will not decide a favourite, however we do have a mushy spot for Grogu, and the Acclamator-Class Assault Ship remains to be among the finest worth units we have seen this 12 months.
