We're just a few weeks away from 2026, and LEGO is ready to kickstart the new year with some brand new Star Wars sets. The company has revealed three new builds that are gearing up to be released on January 1, 2026: an AT-AT, a Venator-Class Attack Cruiser, and a build of BB-8. What's even better is they're already available to preorder, so you can secure a set for yourself now to start piecing together at the start of the year.
The AT-AT set is currently available to preorder for $64.99, the Venator-Class Attack Cruiser set comes to $79.99, and BB-8 is listed at $89.99. Below, you can learn a little bit more about each of these builds as well.
LEGO AT-AT Set (75440)
We may have only just built the delightful, seasonally-appropriate Gingerbread AT-AT, but if you're looking to be transported to The Empire Strikes Back and the Battle of Hoth, this AT-AT set is what you're looking for. Despite being smaller than the massive AT-AT set you often see, it's still angled towards adult fans, with a recommended age of 18 and up, and a total piece count of 525. These fit together to create not just the AT-AT walker itself, but also a Snowspeeder wrapping around its legs, which is a very fun touch.
LEGO Venator-Class Attack Cruiser (75441)
The LEGO Venator-Class Attack Cruiser is another set for adult builders, and comes with more pieces than the above set: 643 in total. This set is pulled straight from Revenge of the Sith, and sees you piecing together the Venator-Class Attack Cruiser starship, complete with a top section that comes off to show the hangar bay. It also has a stand and nameplate for display purposes.
LEGO BB-8 Astromech Droid (75452)
The BB-8 set is one that fans from the age of 10 and up can enjoy. It comes with 569 pieces to create the adorable droid from The Force Awakens, and unlike the other sets, this one is a bit more mobile. If you move the build across a flat surface you can actually make BB-8's head move in random directions. There's even a hatch on the droid's "chest" that reveals a burner arm, so you can get a little thumbs up of approval after building it.
Looking for LEGO sets to buy right now, rather than waiting? Some are still on sale after the recent Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, so there's still a chance to save on select sets ahead of the holidays. Our overall roundup of Cyber Monday deals highlights a few that are still discounted right now after the sale events. Act fast to grab the ones you like, though, as they may not stay on sale for much longer.
