About this deal

When it released in 2007 it was the largest ever LEGO set and an ultimate display of what the brick can achieve. Heads up for those in the US, UK and EU - today is your final day to score 2x Insider Points on all purchases! The current value for a new and sealed The Death Star is estimated at 955 € with an average yearly gain of about 11% which is higher than other Ultimate Collector Series sets.

Included minifigures are Luke Skywalker (Tatooine, Disguise, Final duel), Han Solo (Smuggler, Disguise), Princess Leia, Ben Kenobi, Darth Vader, Chewbacca, R2-D2, C-3PO, Emperor Palpatine, Grand Moff Tarkin, an Imperial Officer, Moff Tian Jerjerrod, R3-M3, 2 Stormtroopers, 2 Royal Guards, a Death Star Droid, 2 Death Star Troopers, and 2 Death Star Gunners. After escaping, Luke Skywalker and other Rebels attacked in X-Wings and Y-Wings, and destroyed the first Death Star. Updated versions of all of the minifigures to match the most recent versions, including a new hair mold for Han.When it was introduced in 1999 and helped save the LEGO Group from bankruptcy, no-one could have predicted its success and legacy, yet now LEGO Star Wars is an evergreen staple.

If all that isn’t enough, 75331 is currently also the only way to get Kuiil, the grouchy Ugnaught who mentors Din in the first season. White it doesn’t come with any minifigures for play, this set is a true collector’s item and a great focal piece for any Star Wars fan. The box has a vertical layout, similar to the Star Wars helmet busts sets, with an all-black design and an 18+ age rating. The set is easy to assemble and includes all necessary pieces, making it a great choice for both experienced builders and newcomers to the world of Lego. From the trash compactor to the meeting room, there are a lot of recognizable locations, but LEGO has outdone itself in other sets.Back to top LEGO®, the LEGO logo, DUPLO, the Brick and Knob configuration, the Minifigure and LEGOLAND® are trademarks of the LEGO Group. Although many LEGO fans love the older version of Han because of nostalgia, I must admit that I prefer the newer one. This fantastic set also includes 23 iconic minifigures and 2 Droids to ensure hours of Star Wars battle fun. The most obvious one is the green superlaser that utterly destroyed Alderaan in A New Hope, which appears much stronger this time around. Unfortunately, it’s free to spin around which is a little annoying – I’d prefer if it was fixed in place.

Stormtroopers are very often in the Star Wars franchise, and they definitely deserved a better look. Starting from the head, eyes are now more accurate to movies, torso now contains a hole pattern allowing you to see coloured wires under this protocol droid. The set includes minifigures of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Princess Leia in their classic outfits. Includes 6 new and exclusive minifigures and droids only found in this set: Luke Skywalker™ (Stormtrooper™ outfit), Han Solo™ (Stormtrooper outfit), Assassin Droid™, Interrogation Droid, Death Star Droid and 2 Death Star Troopers™! Due to my crazy work schedule and lots of personal life family activities, I had to drag this out over a few weeks.

The set is built around a circular base made up of a triple layer of angular plates, and the lowest level is directly on top of this. Inspired by the events of A New Hope, this isn't a full Death Star display, but rather a tiny section of the exterior.

As of today, 10143 Death Star II is the most valuable Ultimate Collector Series set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of 2 703 €. There have been a variety of attempts to bring the monumental Death Star into the collection of Star Wars enthusiasts, and some have really perfected the brief. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data. It is interesting to note here that in the LEGO Death Star version from 2008, light nougat colour for minifigure faces and hands was developed, but only used on certain characters (we saw that Darth Sidious had gray head for example). The last Ultimate Collectors Series (UCS) LEGO Star Wars Death Star (75159) has already retired so there is a possibility that LEGO wants to continue the chain of having the first Death Star always on the shelves.While there was some attention to detail on the sides of the piece, it was very streamlined and lacked imagination. And finally, the cute details that remind us of the films' cherished scenes include a jail cell with a breakaway wall, a rotating seat for Palpatine and a control room with buttons and levers. The designers did a good job approximating the rounded shape of the model at this scale, and I doubt it could’ve been done better without using unnecessarily complex or unstable techniques. A huge laser blast completes this showcase piece, but a lack of interactivity and a hollow center does detract from the model.
