LEGO Star Wars set 75280, “501st Legion Clone Troopers”, represents clone troopers from the 501st Legion in the Star Wars universe. Released in 2020, it contains 285 pieces and belongs to the root Star Wars theme.

Set 75280 is part of the LEGO Star Wars range and focuses on the 501st Legion, a recognizable clone trooper unit within the license. Its subject is a compact battle scene, placing clone forces alongside a droid opponent to give the build a clear Star Wars context.

The set is relevant for collectors of clone troopers, builders of battle scenes, and anyone expanding a LEGO Star Wars collection around character groups. Within the theme, it can be viewed as a character focused reinforcement set, suitable for play layouts or for adding activity to a display.
