LEGO Star Wars 75159 Death Star

LEGO Star Wars set 75159 “Death Star” depicts the Death Star as an open scene based model from the saga. Released in 2016, it belongs to the Star Wars theme, under Ultimate Collector Series, and contains 4024 pieces.

The model presents the Imperial battle station as a multi area interior display rather than a closed outer shell. Within the Star Wars theme, it serves as a large location based set, combining several recognizable Death Star situations in one build.

This set appears in our LEGO Death Star guide, which places it against the other versions.

The build uses 4024 pieces and is arranged around accessible sections for figures and scene setting. Its minifigure selection is a major part of the set, with 23 minifigures listed. The open rooms and levels support confrontations, Imperial stations and internal passages without tying the model to only one moment.

This set is aimed at LEGO Star Wars collectors and builders looking for a large display and play environment. It has enough presence for exhibition, while the open layout keeps the minifigures usable.
