It’s going to be an expensive 12 months for collectors
Major LEGO plans for the 50th anniversary of Star Wars have been announced, and we’ve got everything you need to know about the new collectibles.
LEGO Star Wars’ first 2027 sets were revealed earlier this week, ready to celebrate the monumental 50th anniversary of Star Wars. The seven models include two kinds of collectibles, with more of at least one collection confirmed for the future.
We’ll run through the full assortment and which sets you can find them in, as well as when you might be able to expect the rest of the collectibles. Read on for everything you need to know.
Collectible movie poster prints
Three LEGO Star Wars sets announced for 2027 are confirmed to include LEGO movie poster recreations printed on 6×8 tiles. These posters represent one movie each from the Star Wars franchise: The Empire Strikes Back, A New Hope and Rogue One.
Whether there will be any more has yet to be officially confirmed. These can be found in the display-forward LEGO Star Wars sets, or those that don’t include any minifigures whatsoever. This suggests that if there are to be more, they won’t be featured alongside any kind of minifigures.
That’s only speculation on our part, and right now they are only announced for 75466 Darth Vader 2 in 1 Wall Art, 75467 A New Hope Movie Poster, and 75495 Stormtrooper (Concept Art) Helmet.
| LEGO set | Price | Pieces | Movie poster | Link |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75466 Darth Vader 2 in 1 Wall Art | £59.99 / $69.99 / €69.99 | 628 | The Empire Strikes Back | View set |
| 75467 A New Hope Movie Poster | £269.99 / $299.99 / €299.99 | 3,209 | A New Hope | View set |
| 75495 Stormtrooper (Concept Art) Helmet | £69.99 / $79.99 / €79.99 | 832 | Rogue One | View set |
Concept art minifigures
Also included in some of the other 50th-anniversary LEGO Star Wars sets is an assortment of exclusive minifigures. Similar to anniversary collectibles within LEGO Star Wars itself and NINJAGO, unique minifigures will be made available.
The anniversary minifigure collection for 2027 recreates familiar characters with unfamiliar looks, based on the original Star Wars concept art by Ralph McQuarrie.The confirmed entries into the range so far consist of Han Solo with a yellow lightsaber, Luke Skywalker with a breathing apparatus, Darth Vader with a different helmet, and Princess Leia with an alternative outfit.
You can see where you can find these minifigures, and how much their respective sets will cost, in the table below.
| LEGO set | Price | Pieces | Concept art minifigure | Link |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75470 Mustafar Duel | £34.99 / $39.99 / €39.99 | 372 | Han Solo | View set |
| 75478 Rebel Y-Wing Starfighter | £69.99 / $79.99 / €79.99 | 676 | Luke Skywalker | View set |
| 75480 Duel on Bespin | £69.99 / $79.99 / €79.99 | 718 | Darth Vader | View set |
| 75482 Up-Scaled Luke Skywalker Minifigure | £89.99 / $99.99 / €99.99 | 981 | Princess Leia | View set |
What else?
It has been confirmedre of the concept art minifigures. It’s likely that these will be released throughout 2027, based on similar minifigure collections for NINJAGO and Star Wars, but that has not been announced
You can see who we think the rest of the range might be by clicking here. Provided that these are due for release throughout 2027, it seems likely that they will be spread over the course of the year. NINJAGO’s 2026 anniversary minifigure range, for instance, was all released by June, but that collection only had seven minifigures. Three of them were also in one set.
With three more in the concept art range, we can imagine the LEGO Group spreading them out further. We often see major LEGO Star Wars releases as late as November. No further movie poster collectibles have been confirmed at the time of writing.
It looks likely to be an expensive year ahead for dedicated LEGO Star Wars fans and minifigure collectors. You can stay caught up on what is confirmed and rumoured for 2027 on our dedicated page.
