LEGO has revealed nine brand new Star Wars sets, all scheduled to launch on May 1, 2025. They’re part of Disney’s multi-pronged rollout of May the 4th (aka Star Wars Day), which LEGO typically celebrates by releasing a new Ultimate Collector Series Starship. In 2023, it was Luke’s X-Wing Starfighter. In 2024, it was the TIE Interceptor.
This year, it’s Jango Fett’s Firespray Starship, better known to longtime Star Wars fans as Slave I (see it on the LEGO Store). The name change, which dates back to 2021, was at Disney’s request (confirmed by LEGO), presumably due to the discomfort of associating ‘slave’ imagery in their brand. Four years on, the name change is apparently here to stay.
The last ‘large’ version of this LEGO starship dates back to 2019, when LEGO released a 20th anniversary set with 1007 pieces, depicting the ship as seen in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. This new LEGO version of the ship, composed of 2970 pieces, depicts the ship as seen in Star Wars: Episode 2 Attack of the Clones. It` is nearly three times the piece count of its comparable predecessor, and it measures 7.5 inches high, 17.5 inches long, and 15.5 inches wide.

Its features include a detailed interior, adjustable blasters, and seismic charges. It is displayable either on its side in its landing mode – or upright and mounted on a black stand in its flying mode. It comes with two minifigures: one of Jango Fett, and the other of Boba Fett, back from when he was still a child.
The set will retail for $299.99. Check out our photo gallery above for a closer look. And stay tuned – we’ll be building, photographing, and reviewing this set in the weeks ahead. For more, check out our picks for the best LEGO Star Wars sets available now.
