Lego Reveals Star Wars Imperial Star Destroyer Set With Cal Kestis Minifigure
Lego did a lot during the build to May 4 to celebrate this year's Star Wars Day, but the Star Wars celebrations for the toy bricks makers aren't over yet. 2024 marks 25 years since the first ever Lego Star Wars sets and the ways in which Lego wants to mark the occasion will continue. Next up is an Imperial Star Destroyer set that's already available on Amazon, and one of the Minifigures included is the long-rumored Cal Kestis one.

Darth Vader - complete with his red lightsaber - and Commander Praji Minifigures are among the seven characters included with the set, and Kestis will be its 25th-anniversary figure.

However, the initial rumor suggested Kestis would make his Lego bow as part of a Death Star set rather than a Star Destroyer one.
Lego's Imperial Star Destroyer set is 1,555 pieces and was revealed to celebrate Star Wars Day 2024. There are seven Minifigures included, one of which marks the Lego debut of the Jedi games' Cal Kestis.
The Lego Kestis rumor mill ramped back up last week when Lego shared a video celebrating its Star Wars history and despite still not having his own Minifigure, the Jedi was a part of it. The only downside to this reveal is there's no BD-1 in sight despite Kestis's sidekick also making an appearance
