Its insanely popular Lego Star Wars collection has been selling consistently since the first sets were released in 1999 and, thanks to the release of The Force Awakens last year, the Lego Star Wars hype train doesn't seem to be slowing down. Here we check out some of the best Lego Star Wars sets currently available that are bound to awaken the Lego lover inside you. LEGO Star Wars First Order Battle Pack, £11.99 This First Order Battle Pack building set is a great way to introduce younger children to the world of Lego Star Wars. Despite the the 6-12 age range, it's just as detailed as some of the more advanced sets, featuring a First Order 'turbolaser' turret with a 'stud shooter' and opening hatches to reveal both a weapons storage area and a control centre.
The set also include four mini-figurines: two First Order stormtroopers, one First Order technician, and one First Order crew member, each with their own 'stud blaster'. LEGO Star Wars Resistance X-Wing Fighter Building Set, £8.99 Though it's not one for the more serious collectors around (it's not a challenging build), this X-Wing Fighter set will keep children aged six upwards entertained for hours. LEGO Star Wars 75105 Millennium Falcon, from £94.96 Ideal for any budding Lego set collectors, this detailed model of the iconic Millennium Falcon comes with seven mini-figurines (Rey, Finn, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Tasu Leech, a Kanjiklub Gang Member, and a BB-8 Droid) to help you recreate The Force Awakens. The set comes with a detachable cockpit with space for two mini-figurines, rotating top and bottom laser turrets with a hatch and space for one mini-figurine, dual spring-loaded shooters, a sensor dish, ramp and more. The interior is even more impressive, containing a detailed 'hyperdrive', a 'holochess board' - like the one seen in the films - a secret compartment and storage space for spring-loaded shooter ammo.
LEGO Star Wars Death Star, £579 This incredibly detailed replica of The Empire's Death Star is the ultimate Star Wars set. It features an impressive variety of scenes and locations from Episodes IV and VI on its multiple decks including the Death Star control room, the Emperor's throne room, the detention block, the Imperial conference chamber and much more. The set includes a 24 mini-figurines - including six found only in this set, such as Luke Skywalker and Han Solo in their stormtrooper outfits, an assassin droid and two Death Star troopers. The battle station is 41 cm tall and 42 cm wide. LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Collector's Millennium Falcon, £4,500 Priced at £4,500, this Ultimate Collector's Millenium Falcon - the iconic ship piloted by Han Solo in the original three movies and Rey in The Force Awakens - is the most valuable Lego set in the world, even beating the largest Lego set of all time (the Taj Mahal, with 5,922 pieces) which is worth £2100.
The 5,195-piece set is the second largest Lego set ever created and was originally released in 2007 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Star Wars at a retail price of around £374. Today's more lucrative price tag can be attributed to the fact that, unlike other models of the Falcon, this is a true collectors item. It weighs in at over 22 pounds and is the size of a small table. The first edition of the set also came with a certificate of authenticity for the first 10,000 or so, making it a coveted item for collectors everywhere. The set comes with five mini-figurines: Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Chewbacca and Obi-Wan Kenobi, and a retractable boarding ramp. LEGO Star Wars 10221 Super Star Destroyer, £995 This replica of the Super Star Destroyer - one of the largest, most powerful Imperial vessels ever created - contains 3,152 pieces and measures at over 1.2 metres long. The center section of the ship lifts to reveal the command center and also includes five mini-figurines: Darth Vader, Admiral Piett, Dengar, Bossk and IG-88, an assassin droid.
Master Builders and Jedi Masters have something in common to look forward to: LEGOLAND California Resort is bringing the excitement of The Force Awakens to their Star Wars Miniland. Scheduled to be unveiled at the annual LEGO Star Wars Days on March 4 and 5, 2017, a Jakku-themed model display will be built brick by brick in the center of LEGO Star Wars Miniland, showcasing several scenes from The Force Awakens, and will include a 16-foot-long Star Destroyer! Earlier this month, the Carlsbad, California theme park announced new plans for the resort, including a new addition to their popular LEGO Star Wars Miniland. Currently, Star Wars Miniland is home to several cool displays: outdoor dioramas featuring multiple scenes from worlds from the first six Star Wars films, including Naboo, Geonosis, Kashyyyk, Mustafar, Tatooine, Hoth, and Endor. There’s also a giant model of the Death Star, the Death Star Trench, and a gallery of everyone’s favorite Star Wars characters built as giant LEGO minifigures.
Accompanied by a life-size LEGO R2-D2, LEGOLAND California general manager Peter Ronchetti proclaimed in a September 15 press conference, “Right now, at our secret Model Shop in Carlsbad, Master Model Designer Nik Ehm of our Merlin’s Magic Making team is working on creating six scenes that represent the first 30 minutes of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. There are two primary focal points — the more traditional character-driven scenes on the planet of Jakku, and an enormous LEGO model of the Star Destroyer Finalizer. At 16-feet-long, it will be the longest LEGO Star Wars Miniland model ever created!” A mammoth First Order Star Destroyer looming over the rest of the display will become a magnificent centerpiece to LEGO Star Wars Miniland, drawing in fans to check out the scenes depicted around the diorama. Of course, creating a build this epic isn’t just as easy as constructing a LEGO set from the store, so fans will have to let their anticipation build until next spring.
reached out to Nik Ehm in his office at the secret Model Shop, and the Master Model Designer quickly assembled his response in a colorful pattern of 2-by-4 LEGO bricks for us, or more accurately, he just e-mailed back. Here’s an in-depth look at the making of The Force Awakens display for Star Wars Miniland. : When developing a Star Wars model display for Miniland, what is the process that you go through? Nik Ehm: Just like creating a LEGO model on your own at home, it all starts with an idea. My colleagues and I brainstorm new concepts and sketch out new ideas. Once those ideas have been narrowed down and approved, the fun really begins as we start the design and construction phase of the LEGO models. The time needed to design and construct may vary from hours to weeks depending on the size and detail of each LEGO model. Once construction is complete, we work with the team of Master Model Builders at LEGOLAND California Resort to transport and install the models into LEGO Star Wars Miniland.
: The new display for The Force Awakens will showcase six different scenes from on and above the planet Jakku. Tell us about them and how did LEGOLAND decide which scenes to include? Nik Ehm: Similar to how audiences were drawn to the movie, we wanted to draw in guests at LEGOLAND California to the new LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Miniland Model Display. We decided to represent the first 30 minutes of The Force Awakens in LEGO form by including key character moments. The scenes guests will get to enjoy include: Kylo Ren’s capture of Poe at planet Jakku; Rey’s rescue of BB-8; Poe and Finn’s escape from the Star Destroyer Finalizer; the wreck of Finn and Poe’s TIE fighter; Rey, Finn, and BB-8’s escape from Niima Outpost; and the escape from the starship graveyard. Lights, sound effects, and animation will further bring the scenes and characters to life. All these scenes will be on display in the center of LEGO Star Wars Miniland. : What are some of the most challenging aspects of a diorama like this one?
Nik Ehm: LEGO Star Wars fans have a great eye for detail, so the design team has focused on making LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Miniland Model Display as accurate as possible. The challenge when creating in Miniland model size is designing the models to be proportionally accurate to one another while including as much detail in the scene as possible. This is a challenge that Merlin’s Magic Making team enjoys and takes pride in when constructing the LEGO models and scenes. : How would you compare building a diorama for LEGOLAND, that is meant to last outdoors for years, and assembling a LEGO set at home? Nik Ehm: We have just as much fun building LEGO models for LEGOLAND California Resort as we do building models at home, but we do use some additional tools when designing and building for the Park. The LEGO models for the Park are designed on a computer and don’t come from an existing set. We use glue and for larger models steel to make the models more durable and secure for guests to enjoy.
Animation and LED lights are also incorporated in the models to help bring a scene to life. The great similarity is we use the same LEGO brick when constructing models at home and building the more than 30,000 LEGO models found in the Park. : Being a Master Model Designer seems like a dream job — how did you get to where you are today? Nik Ehm: LEGO was my favorite toy growing up, and it was a dream of mine to build for LEGOLAND California Resort. Six years ago an opportunity opened up to become a Master Model Builder and I jumped at the chance. I went through rigorous testing and interview process and successfully landed my dream job. I never stopped building since I was a kid and I studied art and animation in college, which has helped me in my position as a designer. Thanks to work, I’ve now visit LEGOLAND Parks throughout the world! All photos courtesy of LEGOLAND California Resort. James Floyd is a writer, photographer, and organizer of puzzle adventures.
