This August will see the release of some awesome new LEGO Star Wars sets. From large-scale display models to smaller playset builds geared more towards the younglings, there’s something for everyone. Some of these ideas have already been released as sets in the past, but modern LEGO design sensibilities keep them coming back after retirement. I welcome this, since the secondary LEGO market
Some obvious standouts are the new massive AT-ST Walker (75417) and the Wicket the Ewok (75430) display models. Of the entire batch, the Walker is the one I’m looking forward to the most personally. At 1,513 pieces, it’s sure to be one of the most accurate recreations of the iconic mech we’ve seen to date. The Wicket set joins countless other buildable display figures like C3-PO (75198) and the Battle Droid with STAP (75428) as another super accurate and to-scale set depicting a fan-favorite character in brick form.
Then there’s the new version of Jango Fett’s Starship (75433), which also includes a sweet Lama Su minifigure, the first time this cloner has been shrunk down to LEGO size. The set overall is a smaller version of the massive 2,970-piece Jango Fett’s Firespray-Class Starship (75409), so if you’re on a budget or tight on space, it’s a great way to get Jango’s ship and stay practical.
Finally, I would be silly not to call out the V-19 Torrent Starfighter set (75432). Asajj Ventress is one of my favorite characters from The Clone Wars, and her new minifigure here will be a fine addition to my collection. I’ll also never pass up a reason to get more Obi-Wan in his Clone Wars armor, so this is one I’ll be tracking down once all eight of these sets start to ship out on August 1.
San Diego Comic-Con 2025 just wrapped up over the weekend, and while we didn’t get any huge Star Wars movie news, Lucasfilm Publishing dropped tons of new details on what fans can expect in the near future. Some notable teases include Industrial Light & Magic: 50 Years of Innovation, a hardcover book that celebrates the storied history of the iconic visual effects studio. Then there’s Star Wars: Hyperspace Stories: Bad Batch #2: Rogue Agents. That’s a lot of colons. This comic book features the return of Clone Force 99, and is notably published by Dark Horse Comics and not Marvel. Finally, Star Wars: The High Republic is finally coming to a close with The Finale, which starts very soon on July 30.
