Inspired by the upcoming LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy animated series, a duo of new Star Wars sets have been unwrapped. Here’s everything we know about the new kits including their release date, price, and more.
On June 1, 2024, Redditor Clay_Bricks confirmed the release of a brand-new Millennium Falcon set, portraying Han Solo’s iconic starship in the ‘Dark Side’ guise. It’s a unique piece of kit, as there haven’t been many models depicting the Millennium Falcon more uniquely.
French retailer Fnac has — even before an official LEGO reveal — unveiled this upcoming set, which takes inspiration from Disney+’s LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy animated series. However, there’s more – another Rebuild the Galaxy kit will be released alongside this spectacular Millennium Falcon recreation.
When will the LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy sets be released?
These upcoming Star Wars sets will be officially released on August 1, 2024, more than a month before the September 13 premiere of Disney+’s LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy series.
So, while you wait for the four-part animated series’ release, you can already immerse yourself in Rebuild the Galaxy by building these spectacular kits.

Arguably the most iconic starship from the galaxy far, far away, there have been many LEGO replicas of the Millennium Falcon. However, this upcoming model is special as it veers off from the original design. The other is, of course, the Kessel Run derivative, which was discontinued in 2020.
