As such, it’ll fittingly include a pair of Shock Clone Troopers, as well as Clone Commander Fox. Based around the Coruscant Guard, there will be design that adds even more red into the two-tone paint job. Unlike previous versions of the LEGO Republic Gunship, this model will be getting a unique color scheme. It stacks up to 1,083 pieces and will be arriving as part of the August 1 lineup at $139.99.

Arriving as set number 75354, the latest LEGO version of the ship will be the first playscale model in a decade. The Republic Gunship is the vehicle that Star Wars fans think of when the Clone Wars comes to mind, and the LEGO Group is taking that popularity and running with it for the summer 2023 wave.

Which is to say the better part of a decade! That’s a much different story than the one we told earlier in the year, that had many fans considering the upcoming wave the worst we’ve seen from the theme.īefore we break down what to expect from each of the upcoming sets, here’s the full list of kits that 9to5Toys can confirm today. Each of the kits is delivering something that builders have been hoping for for as long as I have been writing about LEGO professionally. This year has already had some kits canceled, like the Jabba’s Throne Room diorama, and so it’s worth not getting lost in just how compelling these sets seem. Who knows what will happen as the year unfolds.īuilders have been asking for this kind of wave from LEGO Star Wars for ages. With all that being said, it’s best to retain some caution in fully believing that any of the sets will see the light of day.

We at 9to5Toys have heard from likely the same source as that German site, with reports on what to expect from the LEGO Star Wars 2023 summer wave that’s in line with what others have been able to detail. Other sites like the famous leakers over at PromoBricks were the ones to originally report the news back on April 1, and are doubling down that now that the holiday of trickery has come to an end. So until there are leaked minifigures, or some of these sets show up in stores, we’re going to be very skeptical. Today’s batch of news however can hardly be considered to fit into either category. Over the past few years, we’ve gotten pretty good at confirming which LEGO leaks are true and which are too good to be true.
