New Unreleased Death Star 10188 | Star Wars Lego Collectables

Lego is releasing a fantastic new Death Star set in September. I like it much better than the Death Star II, I never liked that model. This Death Star is more a diorama style set with little scenes from Star Wars Episodes IV and VI!

It has the Death Star control room, a hangar bay with TIE Advanced starfighter, the Emperor’s throne room, Imperial conference chamber, detention block, droid maintenance area, tractor beam controls with the powerful Death Star superlaser , the scene where Luke and Leia swing across the chasm , Luke, Chewie and Han Solo in danger with the trash compactor about to crush them - and with the Dianoga trash compactor monster - and the best part .. Lukes duel with Darth Vader and the Emperor!

This set has, amazingly, 25 different minifigures and droids - yes 25!!! Some will be very rare minifigures worth collecting. I know Yoda should not be in the Death Star scenes but I would have liked one.
All over this is one mighty set that any Star Wars Lego Collector would love to have, the only thing I don't like is the price $400!!! I actually would like some scenes like these in smaller kits - especially the Chasm and Trash compactor.
Have a look at these super pre-release photos and see what you favourite Star Wars part in Lego is.

7661 Jedi Starfighter | Star Wars Lego Collectables

The Lego 7661 Jedi Starfighter with Hyperdrive Booster Ring kit, I am guessing, is based on the Episode III Jedi Starfighter that Obi-Wan used. The set has 575 pieces - most of them is for the Hyperdrive Booster Ring that is a very long and very repetitive build. When built, the ring is very solid, I thought it would be a problem of falling apart all the time but it's all good.

The Starfighter is much the same as Anakins, except in blue (Anakins is yellow). It a great looking ship, I love the way the wings fold out. The ship clips onto the Hyperdrive Booster Ring really well, and stays put but you can take it off easy.
The set has two mini-figures, Obi Wan Kenobi and, for the first time, Kit Fisto. The Kit Fisto minifigure is rare so makes a good Lego collectable.

My son got this last Christmas and really likes this set but making it was pretty boring. This is great Star Wars Lego collectables set that provides some good playability and a really rare Kit Fisto minifigure.

6212 X-Wing Fighter Star Wars Lego Collectables

This Star Wars Lego Collectables set is an excellent Lego kit of one of Star Wars best spaceships. It is fairly big model and has a good level of detail in it. Star Wars Lego 6212 comes with a heap of Lego minifigures, including Wedge Antilles (first time - Rare Star Wars Lego minifigure), Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo (looks great with printed trousers), Chewbacca (yippie, I have Chewie!) and R2-D2 ! This set also lets you change some of the ship's marking, so you can convert it from Luke's X-Wing to Wedge's X-Wing - meaning the X-Wing can be either Luke Skywalkers Red Five or Wedges Red Three X-wing!.

The Lego 6212 X Wing Fighter has wings that move up and down via a turning dial in the back. This gives you more control of where you want the wings to sit, so you can pose it however you want, it works really well. There is also a place to store the lightsaber and the cockpit is hinged so you can open it.

I think this is the best X-Wing Fighter yet, probably because of the minifigures and the price is pretty good too, $69 at any local toy store - for a big model with six Star Wars Minifigures . It has 437 Lego pieces and took my son a few hours to build. It is a great Star Wars Lego model and great to collect.
