The new 50th anniversary Lego Star Wars sets are great, but I’m most interested in their weird collectible minifigures

An entire battalion's worth of new Lego Star Wars sets have dropped out of hyperspace like a Rebel fleet about to take on the Empire, and while they look incredible (I'm genuinely excited to grab some of these), I'm most interested in the bizarro minifigures some come with.

Unveiled at the Lego store as part of A New Hope's 50th anniversary, there are seven new Lego Star Wars sets in total spanning a host of budgets and styles. The lineup includes massive display pieces you can hang on your wall alongside dioramas and playsets, but a few have a special bonus feature - an extra minifigure based on concept art for the original Star Wars. Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, and Princess Leia all looked pretty different with their original designs, and they stand out from their usual iterations from the best Lego sets. You can see them in the image above.

Want a better look at the sets themselves? I've listed them below, and they all hit shelves at the beginning of January 2027.

Made up of 718 pieces, this Empire Strikes Back diorama recreates one of the most famous moments (and lines) in movie history. It's quite a lot bigger than the 295-piece version we got 10 years ago. This one also features an extra concept art minifigure version of Darth Vader.

UK: £69.99 at Lego

This is one of the cheaper 50th Anniversary sets so far, and the smallest; it's 372 pieces. However, it comes on a diorama base with two minifigures (Obi-Wan and Anakin), so should serve well as either a display piece or a playset for younger Padawans who want to recreate that pivotal moment from Revenge of the Sith.
