LEGO’s $1,000 Death Star is its most expensive drop yet

LEGO

LEGO’s new 9,000-piece Death Star set comes with a hefty price tag

LEGO just unleashed what might be its most jaw-dropping set ever: the Ultimate Collector Series Death Star, a massive behemoth that clocks in at a staggering 9,023 pieces, making it the largest LEGO Star Wars set ever created. It also comes with a price tag to match: $999.99. But before you start hyperventilating about the cost, let's talk about what you're actually getting for your hard-earned cash.

Unlike previous Death Star sets that attempted to create a full sphere, this 2025 edition takes a completely different approach with a cross-section design that's both more display-friendly and incredibly detailed. Measuring 28 inches high, 32 inches wide and 11 inches deep, it recreates iconic scenes from "A New Hope" and "Return of the Jedi," featuring everything from the trash compactor where our heroes nearly met their doom to Emperor Palpatine's throne room where the final confrontation unfolded. You'll find Princess Leia's cell, the tractor beam control unit that Obi-Wan heroically disabled, the Imperial shuttle hangar and tons of other recognizable locations.

In this article: LEGO Star Wars 327th Star Corps Clone Troopers Battle Pack Building Toy, LEGO Star Wars Imperial Star Destroyer Building Toys Set and LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon A New Hope 25th-Anniversary Collectable Model

It also comes with a staggering 38 minifigures for your collection, including Luke in his Stormtrooper disguise, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Chewbacca, Darth Vader, two LEGO droids and more. LEGO has managed to pack in Easter eggs and hidden details that'll keep even the most dedicated fans discovering new elements long after the build is complete. The Death Star is available beginning Oct. 4, but in the meantime, you can shop the rest of the LEGO Star Wars collection below.
