LEGO Star Wars set 75156, Krennic's Imperial Shuttle, depicts the Imperial shuttle associated with Director Orson Callan Krennic. Released in 2016, it belongs to the Star Wars theme and contains 863 pieces for building the dark spacecraft and its accompanying characters.
The set focuses on the shuttle as the main subject, placing it among the theme’s spacecraft builds rather than as a location-based scene or a generic battle pack.
The build uses 863 pieces and is supported by a defined character selection. The 5 included figures are Bodhi Rook, Director Orson Callan Krennic, K-2SO, Imperial Death Trooper / Specialist / Commander, and Pao. This mix gives the model both Imperial representation and opposing characters for scene building around the shuttle.
