Every buildable LEGO Star Wars droid display set so far
The LEGO Group’s collection of buildable LEGO Star Wars droid display sets is getting bigger next month, with the range spanning back to 2000.
Whether they’re part of the original Technic crossover range or the newer collection of System droids, LEGO Star Wars has long been exploring brick-built droid models at a larger scale, but never quite so much as in the past few years.
With two more entries into the long-running collection just around the corner for May the 4th, here’s every buildable droid set intended primarily for display from the past 25 years.
2000 – 2010
A plethora of LEGO Star Wars Technic droid models were released between 2000 and 2003, covering the prequel trilogy mostly, and the range wouldn’t expand until five years later in 2008. This year would see the release of the massive and authentic 10186 General Grievous.
This was the first System brick-built droid display set to be released, but it wouldn’t be alone on shelves for long.
2010 – 2020
10225 R2-D2 was released in 2012 and was destined to be remade years later. It represents one of the most iconic LEGO Star Wars sets of all time a uniquely designed domed head that embraces the distinct look of LEGO elements.
Five years later saw the launch of 75187 BB-8 as one of the few brick-built droid display sets representing the sequel trilogy. BB-8 is even more embracing of LEGO element shaping, expanding the dome of R2-D2 into a full ball with some surprising features hidden away.
2020 – present
75278 D-O was released three years later in 2020, ushering in an era of buildable droid display sets. 75306 Imperial Probe Droid is a rare occurrence of a buildable droid model for an era’s villainous faction, featuring an environmentally-appropriate display stand with a transparent structure to boot.
75308 R2-D2 arrived next in 2021, remaking the original System R2-D2 build with more pieces, functions and accuracy, eschewing the stylised dome head by adding sloped curves. 75335 BD-1 is arguably the most niche LEGO Star Wars droid display set so far, based on the companion from the Star Wars Jedi game series.
For the 25th anniversary of LEGO Star Wars, 75379 R2-D2 launched at a much smaller scale than the last two R2-D2 models, but this would be beneficial for all future sets, most of which are at the same scale. 75381 Droideka is the only outlier so far, though it has the benefit of being a rare depiction of a Droideka in LEGO Star Wars.
75398 C-3PO was released last year as the perfect companion to 75379 R2-D2, using plenty of gold elements to capture the iconic appearance of the protocol droid. Both 2025’s 75416 Chopper (C1-10P) and 75434 K-2SO are at the same scale as the new C-3PO and R2-D2 sets, making up another collection of brick-built droids.
