Unlike the later variations of the Death Star which would be released, this set is an entirely aesthetic-focused build. This is usually a good indicator of a popular set – and I think it’s fair to say that this set is popular for good reasons. It’s important to note, right out the gate, that this set has become incredibly popular – with aftermarket prices on both Bricklink and eBay sometimes up to three-times the original value of the set when it released. Up first we have the oldest rendition of the Death Star to be released by LEGO – the Death Star II, which released as a UCS set in 2005 retailing for £249.99. With that out the way, we will move on and breakdown the first set – the Death Star II.ġ0143-1: Ultimate Collector Series: Death Star II Whilst these sets are nice and have their own merits, they do not represent the whole of the location in one set, and so cannot really be counted for this comparison. It’s important to note that for this comparison I am referring to whole Death Star builds – and not individual components of the Death Star, like the recent Death Star Cannon or Death Star Trench Run sets which we have received from LEGO recently. With this considered, it seems like the perfect time for us to sit back, and look back through the three different versions of this iconic location which LEGO have brought to the Star Wars line over the years, to see if we can work out which is best! Join us, as we talk all things LEGO Death Star!īefore we can conclude which LEGO Death Star is the best, it makes sense to breakdown the three different versions which have been released over the duration of the LEGO Star Wars line.
Playing a prominent role in A New Hope and Return of the Jedi, the location also made a return in the most recent Star Wars entry, The Rise of Skywalker.
One of the most iconic vehicles (if you can call it a vehicle, and not just a ‘location’ given its scale!) from the Star Wars Saga is, of course, the Death Star.
