During San Diego Comic-Con, LEGO revealed some new Star Wars sets, including two based on the upcoming live-action Ahsoka series!
Earlier this week, LEGO kicked off the SDCC fun with a look at three new Star Wars LEGO sets, including one from their “statue” display-styled line, as well as two sets based on Ahsoka.
Ahsoka Tano’s T-6 Jedi Shuttle building set ($79.99)
Kids can play out Star Wars: Ahsoka adventures at home with this superbly detailed LEGO® brick-building set recreation of Ahsoka Tano’s T-6 Jedi Shuttle (75362).
This starship building set model features an opening LEGO minifigure cockpit, landing gear that’s easily retracted for flight mode, two stud shooters and two storage compartments for tools and weapons.
This action-packed set also includes new-for-September 2023 Ahsoka Tano, Sabine Wren, Professor Huyang and Marrok LEGO minifigures that include minifigure accessories such as LIGHTSABER™ and blaster minifigure accessories to inspire creative play.
New Republic E-Wing™ vs. Shin Hati’s Starfighter™ building set ($109.99)
Get ready for a thrilling galactic chase with this LEGO® Star Wars™ New Republic E-Wing vs. Shin Hati’s Starfighter (75364) building set for ages 9 and up.
It features two authentically detailed brick-building set models of starships from Star Wars: Ahsoka, four LEGO minifigures of popular characters and a New Republic astromech droid minifigure.
Each starship building set has an opening minifigure cockpit, two stud shooters and space to store weapons. The E-wing starfighter additionally features a space behind the cockpit, plus retractable landing gear.
Chewbacca™ building set ($199.99)
In addition to the two Star Wars: Ahsoka sets, the LEGO Group also welcomed a new brick-building set version of Chewbacca to the LEGO® Star Wars™ range to mark the 40th anniversary of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.
This wonderfully detailed display model, consisting of over 2,000 pieces, captures Chewbacca’s distinctive features and arms him with a giant bowcaster. To top it off, there’s even an adorable Chewbacca minifigure included alongside an information plaque. This fitting tribute to a Star Wars icon is sure to make an evocative centrepiece, standing proud at 18 inches tall.
Jens Kronvold Frederiksen, Design Lead for LEGO Star Wars, commented: “We’re so excited to bring these three notable products to the LEGO® Star Wars™ range. The new Star Wars: Ahsoka series is a major development within the Star Wars franchise, and we absolutely loved bringing these exciting vessels to life in LEGO brick form. We can’t wait for fans to begin on their latest adventure by building these fantastic sets, immersing themselves in the latest epic story from the galaxy far, far away.
César Carvalhosa Soares, Senior Designer at the LEGO Group, said: “Designing the Chewbacca building set was one of my favourite projects so far – it was a great challenge to capture the character’s full body of hair in brick-form!”
All three of these Star Wars sets are slated to arrive on September 1, 2023, with pre-orders live now on LEGO.com or other online retailers.
