There are tons of spectacular sets in LEGO’s Star Wars collection. However, which one is better? We’ve rounded up the best LEGO Star Wars sets for adults from a galaxy far, far away.
The LEGO Star Wars collection includes a myriad of magnificent sets. There are some for the youngest Star Wars fans, but of course the most spectacular of them have been designed for adult enthusiasts.
So what are the best LEGO Star Wars sets for fans aged 18 and over? Well, we have grouped each of them just for you.
But first, what makes a LEGO Star Wars set the best LEGO Star Wars set for adults? Well, there are a few aspects to consider, starting with the overall design of the model once built. It should be richly detailed and reminiscent of the original model.
Additionally, the whole thing should provide an immersive and, above all, rewarding building experience. It should create a feeling of accomplishment once completed and displayed for all to see.
But what about the gaming experience? Well, of course that has to be taken into consideration. However, adults are busy and will most likely (and most importantly) display the set in their home or office. So, to be one of the best LEGO Star Wars sets for adults, the kit has to earn showpiece status. This is the major advantage of each kit that we are going to present to you.
1. LEGO Star Wars AT-AT — 75313

Made up of more bricks (6785, to be precise) than any other LEGO Star Wars kit on this list and featuring a host of authentic elements, the LEGO Star Wars AT-AT (75313) is a great set for collectors. Indeed, it is part of the LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Collector series. What’s more, it’s one of the LEGO sets with the most bricks.
Measuring over 62cm high, 69cm long and 24cm wide, this set can accommodate an Imperial army of 40 figures. However, you will need to find 31 others to join the adventure, because this set only includes 9 figures. But it’s more than enough to relive the Battle of Hoth.
Present are General Veers, a Snowtrooper commander, 4 Snowtroopers and 2 AT-AT pilots. But who will oppose the army? Luke Skywalker, of course, also included in the set, with a hook to attach his rope.
The set is extremely detailed, both inside and out. There are opening hatches, cannons with realistic recoil, rotating cannons and even a bomb-dropping hatch. Additionally, the set comes with a duo of speeder bikes and an E-Web heavy repeating blaster.
What’s more, with its adjustable head and legs, you can pose the LEGO Star Wars AT-AT however you want. So, it will undoubtedly make a beautiful centerpiece whether displayed in your home or office.
This set is expensive, however. In fact, it’s one of the most expensive LEGO sets currently available. It will cost you no less than €849.99.
2. LEGO Star Wars Razor Crest — 75331

Although the original Razor Crest from the galaxy far, far away was destroyed during the Battle of Tython, with this LEGO Star Wars kit you can restore it to its former glory in brick format. And it looks great.

The set features a meticulously designed exterior and interior. There are a duo of side hatches and a cargo compartment (accessed via a hydraulic rear hatch). Additionally, the motors can be removed (for some maintenance, probably). A detachable escape capsule is also present.
Five characters are included so you can create new Razor Crest moments (it was destroyed, after all). There are figurines of the Mandalorian, the Mythrol and Kuiil. There’s also a Grogu figure and a buildable Blurgg figure.
To treat yourself to this set, you will have to spend €599.99.
