LEGO Reveals Its Most Expensive Set Yet

LEGO has officially unveiled the highly anticipated LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series Death Star Diorama, a monumental set that raises the bar for collectors. With a staggering 9,023 pieces and a price tag of $999.99, this set becomes the most expensive LEGO product ever released, surpassing the previous record holders, the UCS Millennium Falcon and AT-AT.

Unlike traditional models, this Death Star is not merely a simplistic globe but a detailed cross-section of the iconic space station. Fans can recreate legendary scenes from the original trilogy, including Luke and Leia’s daring swing over the reactor shaft, the gripping lightsaber duel in the Emperor’s throne room, and the infamous trash compactor scene. The set is filled with Easter eggs and authentic details, catering to die-hard fans and serious collectors alike.

To bring the Death Star to life, the set includes a record-breaking 38 minifigures, the most ever included in a single LEGO set. This impressive collection features key characters such as Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader, along with obscure Imperial officers. Additionally, there’s a playful nod to LEGO Star Wars video games with the inclusion of a “Hot Tub Stormtrooper.”

The Death Star Diorama is scheduled for public release on October 4, 2025, with exclusive early access for LEGO Insiders starting on October 1. This exciting announcement is sure to capture the attention of LEGO enthusiasts and Star Wars fans around the globe.
