As if to punish its largest market, LEGO held back the American release of the first wave of 2017 LEGO Star Wars sets in January, even though they were available nearly everywhere else in the world on January 1st. Fans of LEGO Star Wars in the United States can now pick up the latest sets, including great new sets from Rogue One and Rebels.
75172 Y-Wing Starfighter features a Blue Squadron Y-Wing Pilot, Admiral Raddus, the bounty hunter Moroff, an astromech droid, and a stormtrooper. The set includes 691 pieces and retails for $59.99. The set is already backordered from the LEGO Shop online, but is available now from Amazon.
75171 Battle on Scarif includes Jyn Erso disguised as an Imperial ground crew member, Cassian Andor, and two shore troopers. The set includes 419 pieces and retails for $49.99.
75170 The Phantom [II] includes the re-canonized Grand Admiral Thrawn, Kanan Jarrus, and Chopper the droid, with 269 pieces for $29.99. Like its predecessor, the Phantom II can fit on the back of the now-retired 75053 The Ghost.
75174 Desert Skiff Escape includes a redesigned Bantha-II cargo skiff and Sarlacc pit, with updated Han, Chewie, Boba Fett, and skiff guard minifigs. The set is available now at $29.99 from the LEGO Shop, but only available from third-party sellers at twice the cost on Amazon.
More Battle Packs, Micro-Fighters, buildable figures, and other new LEGO Star Wars sets are (finally) available from both Amazon.com and the LEGO Shop online.
