Is this the least enticing LEGO Star Wars exclusive yet?

A new LEGO Star Wars activity book is on the way from Buster Books, and it comes with what may be the least enticing ‘exclusive’ yet.

LEGO Star Wars: The Dark Lord debuts on August 13 and is available to pre-order at Amazon UK right now. Included in the 32-page activity book is the same Darth Vader minifigure that’s appeared across countless LEGO Star Wars sets of late, with printed arms and legs as standard, alongside what the cover bills as an ‘exclusive LEGO model’.

That model is a Mouse Droid comprised of no more than five pieces: a 1x1 brick with studs on two sides; two 1x1 ‘cheese’ slopes; and two 1x1 rounded plates with bar handles. There have been seven different LEGO Star Wars MSE-6-series Repair Droids, or Mouse Droids, to date – from the basic 2006 version that appeared across five sets to the 15-piece assembly in 75382 TIE Interceptor.

This is the smallest of them all by piece count and size, so while it is technically exclusive, it’s probably not going to persuade many LEGO Star Wars collectors to pick up this activity book. And fair enough: it’s filled with puzzles targeted at seven- to nine-year-olds, not 30-somethings.

Still, if you somehow don’t yet own Darth Vader and feel that this book is the quickest route to adding him to your collection, you can pre-order LEGO Star Wars: The Dark Lord from Amazon UK for £8.99. It’ll arrive on or around August 13, 2026.
