1. LEGO AT‑AT Walker (75382) – Iconic Imperial Heavy‑Armor
- Key building highlights
- Articulated legs – Each of the four legs contains a working suspension system that mimics the classic “crawling” motion seen in the Empire Strikes Back.
- Cockpit interior – Removable cockpit with space for two minifigures and a detailed control console.
- Laser cannon – Rotating turret with a detachable blaster and a functional red laser brick.
- Collector perks
* Exclusive LEGO Star Wars Galactic Collectors Card (QR‑code unlocks a digital 3‑D model).
* Limited‑edition gold‑striped wheels included only in the first production batch (≈5 % of stock).
- Practical building tip
Start by constructing the leg frames on a flat surface, then use the “pin and axle” method to keep the legs aligned before attaching the torso. This reduces the risk of misaligned hinges later.
2. LEGO Venator Cruiser (75384) – Republic’s Flagship Reimagined
- Design focus
* Modular hull sections – The cruiser splits into three detachable sections (fore, mid, aft), enabling easy transport and display.
* Dual‑engine thrust – Obvious orange bricks simulate engine flare; each engine can swivel 360° for dynamic poses.
- Included minifigures & accessories
- 2 Republic pilots (with flight helmets and flight jackets)
- 1 Republic Navy officer (with holographic map)
- 4 Micro‑droid pilots and a detachable “shuttle pod” for deployment scenes.
- Display advice
Mount the central section on a clear acrylic stand (sold separately) to showcase the engine “glow” effect under LED lighting.
3. LEGO BB‑8 (Large) – Rolling Droid for all Ages
- Construction flow
- Assemble the spherical chassis using the new “spherical interlock” technique introduced in 2024.
- Attach the head dome with a hidden hinge that allows the dome to rotate 180°, replicating BB‑8’s signature head‑tilt.
- Play features
* Magnetic ball bearings inside the dome enable smooth rolling on smooth surfaces.
* LED light ring (battery‑powered) creates a blue “sensor” glow when the dome tilts.
- Tips for younger builders
- Use the LEGO Building Instructions App (iOS/Android) to view step‑by‑step video guidance.
- keep a spare set of 4 × 2 × 2 bricks handy for swift replacements of any misplaced pieces during the build.
4. Imperial Star destroyer (Mini) – Compact Yet Powerful
- Scale & detail
* 2 411 pieces compacted into a 38 cm long model that still features the iconic bridge, hangar bay, and forward‑turret.
* Transparent “energy shield” panels that can be swapped for a darker “battle‑damaged” version.
- Minifigure lineup
- 2 Imperial officers (including a Darth Vader cameo)
- 1 TIE Pilot, 1 Stormtrooper, 1 First Order officer

Position the mini‑Destroyer on a mirror‑finished base to reflect the ship’s sleek lines, mirroring the visual style of the original movie posters.

- Dual‑suspension chassis provides a realistic bounce on rough terrain.
- Detachable weapon rack includes a blaster and a grappling hook accessory.
- Collectible element
* Comes with a “Trooper Upgrade Card” that unlocks a printable “scar” decal for a battle‑worn look.
- Build shortcut
Construct the bike’s frame on a large flat plate to keep the wheel alignment accurate before final assembly.

- Set composition
