This is the massive $250 'Star Wars' Lego set every fan will want This year, Lego will release 25 new "Star Wars" sets. I checked out a large collection of them recently at New York Toy Fair. Not only will the new sets reimagine scenes from "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," but a few of the sets will also bring a few iconic scenes from the original "Star Wars" trilogy to life. One of the coolest — and most expensive — sets that will be released May 1 will be a giant re-creation of the snowy Hoth Echo Base from "Star Wars: Episode V — The Empire Strikes Back." Lego shared a bunch of images from the upcoming "Assault on Hoth" set with Tech Insider. Keep reading to see what comes inside it. The "Assault on Hoth" set will be available May 1. It retails for $250 and comes with 2,144 pieces. Here's how everything in the full set looks out of the box. It comes with 14 minifigures ranging from Wedge Antilles, Wes Janson, Luke Skywalker, and Han Solo to five Rebel troopers, two snowtroopers, K-3P0, and R3-A2.
Here are a few other images up close. The trench area has a laser turret with shooters. The set also comes with a wampa and lets fans recreate Luke Skywalker's iconic run-in with the snow beast. And, yes, in case you're wondering, the wampa's arm does detach. Wedge Antilles comes with his own ship. Here's one last look at the set out in May. This isn't Lego's most expensive "Star Wars" set. Previously, it released the Jawa Sandcrawler vehicle from "Star Wars: Episode IV" in a 3,296-piece $300 set. You can buy the Sandcrawler set here. And don't forget this $400 Death Star set. The Death Star Lego set is currently sold out.

Discussions are very much alive across LEGO fan forums, especially at Eurobricks, on what The LEGO Group has to offer by next year. We already had a glimpse of these through some of TLG’s initial reveals like the LEGO Batman Movie The Batmobile (70905) and LEGO Batman Movie The Joker’s Notorious Lowrider (70906) , LEGO Marvel Superheroes Hulk VS Red Hulk, the latest addition to the Mighty Micros series both from DC Comics and Marvel Superheroes lines, and a brick-built set of LEGO Ideas Adventure Time (21308). Thanks to an excellent summary provided by the Brick Fan, we now have an overview of what to expect from LEGO with some of these sets now appearing in Brickset’s database with most of it coming from the LEGO Ninjago Movie slated to hit theaters sometime in September next year. Again, be wary that some of these names and set numbers are not final, and were gathered from multiple sources across Eurobricks forums. With that out of the way, let’s now take a look at our list.
