The August wave of New Lego Star Wars sets are - almost - all revealed. But have Lego gone too far this time? Are these over the top, outright greedy, or bang on the money?

160 dollars Imperial Star Destroyer 1555 pieces Vs. 200 dollars NASA Space Shuttle Discovery 2354 pieces. I am glad I am not a Star War fan anymore. Star Wars is Lego's cash cow.

lego needs to realise that theyre a toy company making toys for children, and pricing their toys at £80, £160, etc. means that their target audience will probably not even be able to buy them 😭😭

I find their pricing very strange. Sometimes, like with the smaller city jungle sets, they price cheap and nicely accessible but then far too often it’s just too high and yes that does make it hard for parents to buy for getting children into it

Lego Star Wars prices are definitely getting out of control. They are continuing to go up. With that, I have to now be more mindful with my purchasing decisions. I’m picking and choosing what sets I absolutely need to have and are day 1 buys. And sets that I don’t care for at all, or can wait for a sale. With this new wave there are literally only 2 sets that I want to buy day 1. Those being the Ahsoka Peridea set, and the Sarlacc Pit. Now the Sarlacc Pit is ridiculously overpriced at $80, but if I’m only getting just 2 sets I’m willing to pay full price.

I don’t understand getting sets day 1 at all to be honest. Unless they’re Lego Shop exclusives you can get every set with at least a 30% discount after a couple months. As an adult I feel like it’s really worth it to be a bit patient and save a ton of money in the long run. Plus not supporting Lego’s terrible pricing as much.

Only set I'm getting - preordering, in fact - from this wave will be the TIE Fighter and X-Wing mashup, purely for the fact the X-Wing looks - in my opinion - outstanding in spite of its smaller scale. The unique pilot and droid and the fact that this isn't another Red 5 and Luke Skywalker definitely appealed to me. The new style of TIE Pilot also looks great, though the TIE Fighter's build doesn't look the best. Would've much preferred the 2021 75300 TIE Fighter's overall style and build, but I can somewhat understand the change. Probably the only set with a somewhat decent and justifiable price, though having to pay almost $50 CAD more than 2023's TIE Interceptor vs. Fang Fighter - which I do own and can say was well worth its price - is definitely turning me away from any future LEGO Star Wars purchases. Genuinely curious what other people have to say about this one and definitely looking forward to any incoming reviews by LEGO Star Wars KZfaqrs. I think its a somewhat refreshing set with the removable wing play-features, and the X-Wing truly looks great to me.

Yes, they are. A clone trooper pack would be $10 to 15 back in the day, now it's $20 to 30. Glad I'm stopping with Lego, but it also hurts to not collect minifigures anymore. If it was Count Dooku and the ship from Episode 3. Then I would pay the price.

Literaly 4 heroes vs 1 boba fett lol Some jabba hench mans would be welcome I think i would trade Luke for one Jabba goon and include luke in Jabba's Sail barge Also for this price really they should be 2 skiffs No mention to fact this is same ESB Boba Fett from mech in ROTJ set... I still like it but it could've been better Also Choose of Nienh Numb is mid He coul've aapear in any ither ROTJ set Peridea set is kinda dissaponting Box art looks like a fan made Thrawn is great Same with Ashoka Ezra looks... Extremly strange,Like Lisan Al Ghaib Morgan is decent but I think i would rather she having skirt elemnt intead of black legs Also that face print is dissaponyting Night trooper is also decent but it could've been better Also dissapointed this isn't enoch Build is kinda mid

Well given that we are getting the UCS sail barge later this year, I imagine Wequay will be included as one of the minifigures in that set. I mean I would’ve thought the sarlac pit and skiff would have been included in the UCS set, so it’s a bit concerning that they’ve done it as a separate set. Certainly raises my expectations for the sail barge, it needs to awesome now to justify the UCS tag if I’m gonna have to buy the skiff and the pit separately. 🤔🤷🤣 And I think the biggest issue with Boba aside from the jet pack, is no cloth cape! Lego are really doing us in by not including fabric pieces for Boba and others!
