LEGO’s $1,000 Death Star shatters records as priciest set ever

The Lego group is set to roll out the brand’s most priciest $1000 worth Death Star set ever, surpassing the previous $800 Star Wars Millennium Falcon.

After months of circulating rumours, the Danish toy company has unveiled the first look of the set that appeared on Consequence.

The Star Wars Death Star set consists of 9,023 pieces which are intricately connected with enough compartments to re-create every iconic Death Star scene from Star Wars and Return of the Jedi.

Being 2 feet tall, over 2 feet wide, and nearly 1 foot deep, the set comes with 38 minifigures, including Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Darth Wader, and Princess Leia.

The other sections also re-enacts the unforgettable locations, such as Princess Leia’s cell, the Imperial shuttle hanger, and Emperor Palpatine’s throne room.

The set also comprises a colossal Superlaser dish and display features for figures of Director Krennic and Galen Erso from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. The other distinguished feature includes a hot tub Stormtrooper, demonstrating a reference from the LEGO Star Wars video games.

The set will be available to purchase for $999.99 from October 4, 2025. However, the fans and LEGO insiders can order from the website from October 1.

The fans will be awarded with a free gift of a small TIE Fighter with purchase during the first week.
