Best Star Wars Lego sets
Lego’s relationship with the galaxy far, far away has existed since 1999 and has expanded to include a wide variety of ships, settings, and characters from across the Star Wars franchise.
In the 25 years since, Lego has expanded and refined its selection of models to cover virtually every corner of the canonical Star Wars galaxy. Some of the most recent iterations, like the Millennium Falcon and AT-AT, are massive and include a staggering level of detail. If you’ve got some spare shelf space and a love for the Star Wars franchise, you’ll find a Lego model that was made for you.

The venerable Corellian freighter that made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs is also available as a smaller 1,351-piece set. This $169.99 version is currently available from Amazon and Target for around $136.
The silhouette of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer is an iconic part of the Star Wars franchise and an unmistakable symbol of the Galactic Empire’s reign of terror across the galaxy.

Launching Aug. 1, the $159.99 version is available to pre-order from Lego.
Not quite as imposing as some of the previous iterations, some of which contained up to 3,152 pieces, this version of Darth Vader’s flagship is a bit more manageable. Made from just 630 pieces, this $69.99 version of the Executor Super Star Destroyer is flanked by a pair of itty-bitty Star Destroyers for scale and is currently available
