75385 Ahsoka Tano’s Battle on Peridea

Price: €54.99 Pieces: 382 Minifigures: 5 Release date: August 1, 2024

Based on the Ahsoka Disney+ TV series, 75385 Ahsoka Tano’s Battle on Peridea brings together most of the show’s main characters for a showdown on Peridea. Effectively a platform with a few turntables, the 382-piece build is mostly a backdrop for its minifigures, which include refreshed versions of Ahsoka Tano, Morgan Elsbeth, Ezra Bridger and Grand Admiral Thrawn, alongside a brand new Night Trooper.

75396 Desert Skiff & Sarlacc Pit

Price: €79.99 Pieces: 558 Minifigures: 6 Release date: August 1, 2024

Coming in at a pretty high price for its piece count is 75396 Desert Skiff & Sarlacc Pit, which adjusts the balance of its two builds compared to previous iterations of this scene. The skiff is a little bit smaller than we’ve seen previously, but the Sarlacc is much beefier, complete with more than a hint of its desert surroundings to create an actual pit.

The minifigure line-up is a who’s-who of main characters, with Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Lando Calrissian and Boba Fett comprising the primary cast. But you’ll also find a bonus minifigure here in Nien Nunb, who comes with a 25th-anniversary display stand much like Cal Kestis, ARC Trooper Fives, Darth Malak, Saw Gerrera and Young Princess Leia.
