LEGO 75419 Death Star Diorama Set Leaked, Due Oct With 9,023 Pieces
Finally, after all the rumours around a new, larger, and of course more costly LEGO Death Star expected to land some time in 2025, we now have a first peek at a leaked image of the upcoming 9,023-piece LEGO 95419 Death Star diorama set that is expected to release in October 2025 for US$999.99.
As can be seen below, instead of the usual sphere design that most fans have been getting over the years, we seem to be getting a cross-section slice of the Death Star instead, in a diorama style, with quite a number of mini figures included. LEGO has managed to squeeze in pretty much every iconic scene from the Death Star, even that corridor where Han Solo was running away from a bunch of chasing Stormtroopers, C-3PO in the control room, Luke and Leia making the jump, Obiwan Kenobi powering off the shield generators, Emperor Palpatine's throne room, Darth Vader's meditation chamber and so much more. There's bound to be plenty of Easter Eggs to be had too.
As can be seen above, over the last 20 years, we started with a LEGO Death Star II, which had 3,449 pieces in 2005. With the previous Death Star set released in 2016, we now have a new set that more than doubles the piece count to a whopping 9,023 pieces. This set will then take the crown of the largest LEGO Star Wars set ever, with the current reigning champion being the LEGO Star Wars 75192 Millennium Falcon, clocking in at 7,541 pieces.
According to the leaks, the set is expected to be 27.5 inches tall (70cm), 31 inches wide (79cm) and 10.5 inches deep (27cm). Many Star Wars fans are bound to be disappointed with this reveal, having given only a slice of a Death Star rather than a whole. But look on the bright side, We think this is great. Because of the way it's designed, it means we won't have to worry about finding shelf space for it. It would be PERFECT for mounting on a wall instead, and it would look even more impressive once we light it all up!
We're definitely excited for its release, which is expected to be this October, but the only worrying factor is its expected US$999.99 price.
