Hi there!
LEGO has officially unveiled the first seven LEGO Star Wars sets to celebrate the big 50th anniversary of Star Wars in 2027!
That’s because Star Wars will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2027. On May 25, 1977, the very first Star Wars movie—which we now know as Episode IV: A New Hope —was released in U.S. theaters.
And to mark the occasion, we’re getting a whole new line of LEGO sets!
These include various display models, a new spaceship, a giant movie poster, and even exclusive Minifigures based on Ralph McQuarrie’s original concept art.
The first six sets will be released on January 1, 2027. The seventh model—the large movie poster—will also be available to LEGO Insiders starting January 1 and to the general public starting January 4.
But what can we expect, and which sets are particularly interesting?
Let’s take a closer look at these seven new products!
Let’s get started!
LEGO Star Wars 75466 – Darth Vader’s 2-in-1 Wall Display
First up is the LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader 2-in-1 Wall Art, set number 75466!
The set consists of 628 pieces and has a MSRP of 69.99 euros.
And I have to say, I really like the design!
Here we have a truly beautifully crafted LEGO Art model featuring Darth Vader’s iconic helmet.
I especially like the color scheme. It features various shades of gray, white, and black combined with a bold red.
This creates a really great contrast!
What makes this even more interesting is that it’s actually a 2-in-1 model.
As an alternative to Darth Vader’s helmet, you can also build the legendary phrase “I am your father.”
And I think that’s really cool!
While it doesn’t include any Minifigures, it does come with a printed collector’s tile featuring the movie poster for *The Empire Strikes Back*.
All in all, it’s a really nice LEGO Art set that’s perfect for display.
And I think the price is quite fair, too!

LEGO Star Wars 75467 – A New Hope Movie Poster
Now we come to what is arguably one of the most interesting sets in this new wave!
Specifically, the LEGO Star Wars movie poster for *A New Hope*, set number 75467!
The set consists of a whopping 3,209 pieces and has a MSRP of 299.99 euros.
And wow!
I think LEGO did a really great job recreating this iconic movie poster!
As the name suggests, this is a large replica of the original Star Wars movie poster from 1977. But it’s not just a flat image—it’s a real 3D model!
The whole thing was recreated in great detail using numerous LEGO pieces.
Of course, the focal point is Luke Skywalker with his lightsaber and Princess Leia.
Also featured are C-3PO and R2-D2, as well as the iconic Star Wars logo at the bottom.
In the background, we can see Darth Vader’s massive helmet, the Death Star, and various spaceships, including the X-Wings.
I especially love the combination of the different shades of blue and purple, the bold colors of the characters, and the darker elements in the background!
It really looks like a three-dimensional interpretation of the original movie poster.
And I think that’s great!
The numerous small details also make this a truly beautiful display model.
With a height of 59 centimeters and a width of 40 centimeters, this is certainly no small picture!
Price-wise, though, at just under 300 euros, it’s pretty expensive.
But when you consider the over 3,200 pieces, the price per piece is actually still quite reasonable.
In my opinion, this is definitely a great adaptation!

LEGO Star Wars 75470 – Duel on Mustafar
Next up is the LEGO Star Wars Duel on Mustafar, set number 75470!
It consists of 372 pieces, has a MSRP of 39.99 euros, and includes a total of three Minifigures.
Here we get a recreation of the legendary battle scene between Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker from Episode III – Revenge of the Sith.
The two stand on their small platforms above the lava flow on Mustafar and engage in their iconic lightsaber duel.
And I think the scene was really well executed!
What’s particularly interesting is that LEGO has once again created a small display model here that looks different from the earlier black dioramas.
The lava is depicted in various shades of red, orange, and yellow, while the figures stand on their movable platforms.
On the front, there’s also a printed tile featuring Obi-Wan Kenobi’s legendary line: “You were the chosen one.”
I think that’s really cool!
I also really like the two Minifigures of Obi-Wan and Anakin.
Anakin, in particular, with his Sith eyes, looks really awesome!
And the design of the legs is also very well done.
But there’s a third Minifigure as well!
To celebrate the 50th anniversary , we’re getting an exclusive version of Han Solo based on Ralph McQuarrie’s original concept art.
Anyone familiar with the history of Star Wars’ creation knows, of course, that many characters were originally supposed to look completely different.
And now we’re getting some of these early designs as LEGO Minifigures!
I find that really interesting!
What I feel is still missing just a little bit from the actual diorama, though, is a bit more substance.
For example, I would have liked to see a small, subtly suggested rocky hill.
Other than that, I really like how it turned out!

LEGO Star Wars 75478 – Rebel Y-Wing Starfighter
Now we come to my personal highlight of this new wave!
Specifically, the LEGO Star Wars Rebel Y-Wing Starfighter, set number 75478!
The set consists of 676 pieces, has an MSRP of 79.99 euros, and includes four minifigures, including an astromech droid.
And I have to say, the new Y-Wing looks really great!
This is a beautifully crafted Rebel Alliance spaceship with lots of details.
I especially love the overall shape of the Y-wing, the two large engines, and the cockpit design!
It also includes various play features, such as shooters, retractable landing gear, and a mechanism for dropping proton bombs.
So there’s plenty to do in terms of play value, too!
Of course, the Y-Wing pairs perfectly with other Rebel starships, such as the X-Wings or the U-Wing.
I can really picture this model fitting in well, especially in a small Rebel fleet.
But the minifigures are pretty interesting this time around, too!
Included are:
- Mon Mothma
- Dutch Vander
- R2-BHD
- Luke Skywalker (Concept Art)
I think Mon Mothma, in particular, is really beautifully designed! Then there’s the pilot Dutch Vander and the little astromech droid R2-BHD.
But the absolute highlight is, of course, once again the exclusive anniversary figure!
Here, we get to see Luke Skywalker in his original concept art version, also known as Luke Starkiller.
And it looks really interesting!
It’s precisely the unusual design and the yellow lightsaber that make this figure such a great collector’s item.
Of course, the whole thing brings to mind the early concepts for the Star Wars story, when various characters and names were still planned differently.
A really great idea!
I also think the price of the Y-Wing is perfectly reasonable. For me, it’s definitely the highlight of this new LEGO Star Wars wave!
Technical Details
Name: Rebel Y-Wing Starfighter
Set Number: 75478
Theme: LEGO Star Wars
Pieces: 676
Minifigures: 3 + 1 astromech droid
MSRP: 79.99 euros

LEGO Star Wars 75480 – Duel on Bespin
Next up is the LEGO Star Wars Duel on Bespin, set number 75480!
The set consists of 718 pieces, has a MSRP of 79.99 euros, and includes three Minifigures.
And of course, the whole thing looks kind of familiar to us!
After all, a very similar model was released several years ago as an exclusive San Diego Comic-Con edition.
Now we get to relive the legendary scene between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader from Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back in a new version!
The set features the famous platform in Cloud City where the two characters engage in their legendary lightsaber duel.
Once again, we have a really nice display model, but one that also offers some play features.
For example, you can move Darth Vader using a mechanism and reenact various battle scenes.
The Minifigures are, of course, particularly interesting. We get Luke Skywalker in his Cloud City version, as well as Darth Vader. Luke looks a little different here than he did in the exclusive version from back then.
Darth Vader, on the other hand, is a more classic version with printed arms.
But here, too, there’s another concept art figure!
It’s Darth Vader, based on Ralph McQuarrie’s original designs!
The helmet in particular looks pretty unusual here and, to me, almost has a bit of an anime vibe.
I find that really interesting!
There’s also a printed tile on the front featuring the legendary line: “No, I am your father!” Overall, I really like the diorama!
Technical Details
Name: Duel on Bespin
Set Number: 75480
Theme: LEGO Star Wars

LEGO Star Wars 75482 – Large Luke Skywalker Minifigure
Let’s take a look at the large LEGO Star Wars Luke Skywalker Minifigure with set number 75482!
It consists of 981 pieces and has an MSRP of 99.99 euros.
And here, too, I think LEGO has once again delivered a truly beautiful design! We get Luke Skywalker in his classic pilot suit as a giant buildable Minifigure.
And of course, you recognize Luke right away!
I really like the color scheme of the orange pilot suit and the detailed helmet.
There are also various printed elements, as well as stickers, used to bring out the details of the suit.
The helmet definitely looks great!
The blaster is also really cleanly designed and goes perfectly with the figure.
What I do find a bit of a shame, though, is that Luke himself didn’t get a lightsaber.
Of course, that would let you place him right next to the large Darth Vader Minifigure and reenact a little duel.
But maybe that wouldn’t have fit quite as well in this version.
Other than that, I think the figure is really cool!
Luke Skywalker should be a great addition, especially for anyone who collects these large, buildable Minifigures.
And of course, there’s another exclusive anniversary Minifigure here as well!
This time, it’s Princess Leia in her original concept art version!
This one is also based on early designs by Ralph McQuarrie and even comes with a lightsaber and a blaster.
So, yet another interesting collector’s item!
Technical Details
Name: Large Luke Skywalker Minifigure
Set Number: 75482
Theme: LEGO Star Wars
Pieces: 981
Minifigures: 1 (Princess Leia as a concept art figure)
MSRP: 99.99 euros

LEGO Star Wars 75495 – Stormtrooper Helmet (Concept Art)
And last but not least, we have yet another LEGO Star Wars helmet!
Specifically, the Stormtrooper helmet based on the original concept art, with set number 75495!
The set consists of 832 pieces and has a MSRP of 79.99 euros.
And here we have something completely different!
Because LEGO didn’t just reissue the classic Stormtrooper helmet.
Instead, the entire model is based on Ralph McQuarrie’s early concept art drawings.
And you can really tell!
The helmet looks a bit more angular in places and differs significantly from the design we saw later in the movies. Personally, I find the design takes some getting used to, but it’s definitely interesting!
This model should be particularly exciting for true Star Wars fans who are also interested in the original designs and the history behind the making of the films.
It also comes with a matching display stand and a printed nameplate.
It also includes a printed collector’s tile featuring a LEGO version of the Rogue One movie poster.
Personally, I don’t necessarily consider it the highlight of the new wave.
But I do find it quite interesting that LEGO is revisiting these original character designs for the anniversary!
Technical Details
Name: Stormtrooper (Concept Art) Helmet

New packaging and exclusive anniversary figures!
Of course, the new packaging is also the first thing you notice! That’s because LEGO has revamped the packaging design once again for its 50th anniversary.
We’re getting a combination of yellow, black, and red.
And I have to say, I actually really like it!
The bold yellow, in particular, creates a really interesting contrast.
On the play sets, Darth Vader is also featured in the top right corner with his red lightsaber and the 50th-anniversary Star Wars logo.
That said, I have to admit that I might have liked it even better if Darth Vader were looking straight ahead. As it is, he’s looking pretty much straight into the corner.
But of course, that’s a matter of taste!
I also find the new exclusive anniversary minifigures particularly interesting.
After all, we’re getting four different characters based on Ralph McQuarrie’s original designs.
And that’s really exciting for collectors, of course!
Precisely because we’re not just getting the classic figures again, but new interpretations of the familiar characters.
The three large 18+ models, on the other hand, include special collectible tiles printed with movie posters.
Overall, I think this is a really great concept for the 50th anniversary of Star Wars!
My Conclusion – Which LEGO Star Wars sets do I like best?
I think LEGO has unveiled a really interesting first wave here to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Star Wars!
I especially like the various concept art figures and the new printed collector’s tiles. I also find the new packaging design interesting.
Of course, not every set is necessarily my cup of tea.
For example, I think the large movie poster is really well done!
I absolutely love the many details and the overall color scheme. However, just under 300 euros is, of course, a hefty price tag.
I also think the two dioramas are beautiful, though I would have liked to see a bit more of the landscape, especially in the duel on Mustafar.
The large Luke Skywalker figure and the Stormtrooper helmet are also quite nice.
But my personal favorite is definitely the Rebel Y-Wing Starfighter!
I really, really like it!
And I think the included Minifigures are great, too.
Out of the seven sets, I’ll probably end up getting just the Y-Wing.
I do really like some of the other models as well, but I don’t necessarily need to have them in my Collection.
Of course, that’s just the beginning!
Because more LEGO Star Wars sets are sure to be unveiled throughout the anniversary year. And I’m definitely looking forward to them!
As soon as more models are officially announced, I’ll be sure to report on them here on BrickTracker. But for now, I’m curious to hear your thoughts!
What do you think of the first seven LEGO Star Wars anniversary sets for 2027?
Which model is your personal favorite?
And most importantly: Which of these sets are you definitely going to get?
