Summer 2023 LEGO Star Wars sets unveiled at Comic-Con, including buildable Chewbacca and Ahsoka series playsets [News]

San Diego Comic Con today saw LEGO reveal three upcoming sets in the Star Wars product line. Ahead of the hotly-anticipated Ahsoka series coming to Disney+ in a little over a month, we get two colourful sets depicting starfighters old and new from the Star Wars universe. The T-6 Jedi Shuttle makes its first appearance in a LEGO set since 2012, while the E-wing makes its first appearance in New Republic colours alongside an all-new ship for antagonist Shin Hati. Shin is herself part of a minifigure line-up featuring many of the Ahsoka series’ main characters. In addition to these two playscale sets is a buildable Chewbacca, depicting the lovable wookiee in a 2,000-piece, 18″ (46cm) sculpture. All three sets are available for pre-order now from LEGO.com, and will be released this coming September 1st.

Here’s what LEGO had to say on the new Chewie set:

Chewbacca™ building set
In addition to the two Star Wars: Ahsoka sets, the LEGO Group also welcomed a new brick-building set version of Chewbacca to the LEGO® Star Wars™ range to mark the 40th anniversary of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

This wonderfully detailed display model, consisting of over 2,000 pieces, captures Chewbacca’s distinctive features and arms him with a giant bowcaster. To top it off, there’s even an adorable Chewbacca minifigure included alongside an information plaque. This fitting tribute to a Star Wars icon is sure to make an evocative centrepiece, standing proud at 18 inches tall.

Jens Kronvold Frederiksen, Design Lead for LEGO Star Wars, commented: “We’re so excited to bring these three notable products to the LEGO® Star Wars™ range. The new Star Wars: Ahsoka series is a major development within the Star Wars franchise, and we absolutely loved bringing these exciting vessels to life in LEGO brick form. We can’t wait for fans to begin on their latest adventure by building these fantastic sets, immersing themselves in the latest epic story from the galaxy far, far away.

César Carvalhosa Soares, Senior Designer at the LEGO Group, said: “Designing the Chewbacca building set was one of my favourite projects so far – it was a great challenge to capture the character’s full body of hair in brick-form!”

All three of the new products can be paired with the LEGO Builder app. This nifty app has tools for builders to zoom in and rotate a 3D digital version of the real-life construction model as they build, save sets and track their progress.


Finally, here’s LEGO’s press release from San Diego:

Today at San Diego Comic-Con, the LEGO Group announced three new additions to the LEGO® Star Wars™ building set range. Two sets were connected to the upcoming Star Wars series Star Wars: Ahsoka – Ahsoka Tano’s T-6 Jedi Shuttle, and New Republic E-Wing™ vs. Shin Hati’s Starfighter™ – plus a brick-built display model of everyone’s favourite Wookiee, Chewbacca™, was revealed.

The two Star Wars: Ahsoka sets have been announced in the lead up to the launch of Star Wars: Ahsoka series, streaming on Disney+ from August 23. Set after the fall of the Empire, Star Wars: Ahsoka follows former Jedi Ahsoka Tano (played by Rosario Dawson) as she investigates an emerging threat to a vulnerable galaxy. These two new LEGO brick-built starship sets invite fans to join Ahsoka – warrior, outcast and rebel – on her adventures around the galaxy.

    i feel like the ewing would have been a better set on its own. Like why not make it a $40ish set that you can get a couple of and not feel like you are breaking the bank.
