The biggest LEGO Star Wars sets of all time – September 2024
At nearly 4,000 pieces, where does 75397 Jabba’s Sail Barge stack up next to the biggest LEGO Star Wars sets of all time? Let’s find out…
Another year, another colossal LEGO Star Wars set. The LEGO Group typically reserves the autumn launch window for the flagship model from a galaxy far, far away, and that holds true in 2024, as 75397 Jabba’s Sail Barge floats on to shelves with the biggest piece count of any LEGO Star Wars release since last October’s 75367 Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser.
But where does that place it among the biggest LEGO Star Wars sets ever released? We’ve shuffled the list around to fit Jabba and his cronies into the mix and get some context for its ambitious size. Check out the 10 biggest LEGO Star Wars sets of all time below, and let us know in the comments how many are in your collection (or on your wishlist!).
10 – 10143 Death Star II
Pieces: 3,441 Price: £249.99 / $269.99 / €269.99 Minifigures: 0 Year: 2005
Still hanging in there (just about) is 2005’s 10143 Death Star II, to date the only model of the deadly space station at this scale. At 3,441 pieces it’s just a much of a beast as it was nearly two decades ago, and while it retailed for a relatively reasonable £250 in the UK, you definitely won’t find it for that price new nowadays.
9 – 10188 Death Star
Pieces: 3,803 Price: £274.99 / $399.99 / €419.99 Minifigures: 24 Year: 2008
Three years after it debuted its first massive Death Star, the LEGO Star Wars team bumped up the piece count slightly and switched to playset mode for a hybrid of the original trilogy’s two battle stations, combining every significant scene from A New Hope and Return of the Jedi into one 3,803-piece set. Time has been kind to this one, but it’s starting to be at risk of being ousted from this list.
8 – 75397 Jabba’s Sail Barge
Pieces: 3,942 Price: £429.99 / $499.99 / €499.99 Minifigures: 11 Year: 2024
Despite retailing for an eye-watering £429.99 / $499.99 / €499.99, 75397 Jabba’s Sail Barge is somehow only the eighth-biggest LEGO Star Wars set by piece count. It includes 3,942 elements and 11 characters, one of which is the mighty Jabba himself, returning just as we remember him from 2012 (only with slightly updated printing). Don’t underestimate the barge for its position on this list, though: it’s a monster of a display model.
7 – 75159 Death Star
Pieces: 4,016 Price: £409.99 / $499.99 / €499.99 Minifigures: 27 Year: 2016
One thing 75397 Jabba’s Sail Barge does do is disrupt the flow of Death Stars on this list, because the bottom three would otherwise all be big grey spheres. The LEGO Group controversially retired and relaunched its Ultimate Collector Series Death Star playset in 2016 with updated minifigures, a slightly-tweaked design and a much heftier price tag. Those minor modifications took it over 4,000 pieces, which cements it at seventh place in this list in 2024.
6 – 75252 Imperial Star Destroyer
Pieces: 4,784 Price: £614.99 / $699.99 / €699.99 Minifigures: 2 Year: 2019
The original UCS Star Destroyer was a formidable thing when it launched in 2002, but time has not been especially kind to 10030 Imperial Star Destroyer and its magnet-heavy design. 75252 Imperial Star Destroyer, by contrast, is a much more impressive feat of engineering that manages to capture the colossal capital ship with ‘only’ 4,784 pieces (a relatively minor leap over the original’s 3,066 elements). Good luck finding anywhere to put this thing, though.
5 – 10179 Ultimate Collector’s Millennium Falcon
Pieces: 5,197 Price: £349.99 / $399.99 / €399.99 Minifigures: 5 Year: 2007
Bold, ambitious and unprecedented: all words that could have described 10179 Ultimate Collector’s Millenium Falcon in 2007, and – to be fair – all words that would still apply today, even if it has been overshadowed by four other LEGO Star Wars sets in the years since. The hunk of junk was famously designed without a budget in mind and quickly shattered all sorts of records for the LEGO Group, paving the way for the giant LEGO sets launching across all themes today.
4 – 75367 Venator-class Republic Attack Cruiser
Pieces: 5,374 Price: £559.99 / $649.99 / €649.99 Minifigures: 2 Year: 2023
Last year’s 75367 Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser arguably one-ups 75252 Imperial Star Destroyer with a bigger, sturdier and more attractive attempt at a UCS capital ship. It’s remarkable what a difference four years can make – and at 5,374 pieces, the Venator should be safely part of this list for years and years to come. That’s not a bad legacy for a prequel trilogy UCS set.
3 – 75331 The Razor Crest
Pieces: 6,187 Price: £519.99 / $599.99 / €599.99 Minifigures: 4 Year: 2022
Given how fresh The Mandalorian is as a Star Wars series, it’s still surprising that the LEGO Group was happy to devote such a huge budget to its most iconic ship – not least because it met with an untimely end midway through the show’s second season. But 75331 The Razor Crest will hopefully enjoy a relevance renaissance in 2026 (if it sticks around that long), as it looks like Mando’s got himself a new version in the upcoming Mandalorian & Grogu movie…
2 – 75313 AT-AT
Pieces: 6,785 Price: £734.99 / $849.99 / €849.99 Minifigures: 9 Year: 2021
No surprises for what’s still topping this list seven years on from release (spoiler alert), and it’s equally unsurprising that the only set that could ever come close to the crown would be 75313 AT-AT. This was a UCS model the LEGO Star Wars community spent years requesting, and the designers delivered in 2021 with a gargantuan Imperial walker. The bad news? The second-biggest LEGO Star Wars set of all time is unfortunately retiring in 2024. Run, don’t walk to get yours before it’s too late.
1 – 75192 Millennium Falcon
Pieces: 7,541 Price: £734.99 / $849.99 / €849.99 Minifigures: 8 Year: 2017
We’d like to say 75397 Jabba’s Sail Barge had a good go at knocking 75192 Millennium Falcon off its perch, but let’s be honest… it didn’t. That’s because it didn’t need to, and at this stage it’s difficult to think of a vehicle from a galaxy far, far away that would require more than 7,541 pieces. The only way the Falcon loses its crown as the biggest LEGO Star Wars set of all time is if the LEGO Group retires it and launches a new version with a full interior. And you never know…
