The first Cal Kestis Lego figure as part of a new $160 Star Wars set is here. This special addition celebrates 25 years of the Lego Star Wars line. As fans expected, many highly sought-after characters from the Star Wars universe are marking this milestone. But what’s particularly exciting is that Kestis joins an Imperial Star Destroyer.
Detailed Features of the New Set
This 1,555-piece set includes an exclusive minifigure of Cal Kestis from Respawn Entertainment’s Star Wars Jedi series, representing his look in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. Additionally, it’s packed with other beloved minifigures such as Darth Vader, Commander Proaji, an Imperial gunner, an Imperial navy trooper, and a Stormtrooper.
The set boasts intricate design elements that mimic the iconic starship. Some cool features include a hidden foldout carry handle, spring-loaded shooters for action-packed play, as well as lift-off panels to access the highly detailed interior. Inside, you’ll find a bridge, command room, break room, armory, a cargo box with Kyber Crystal, and thermal detonator elements. These additions make it truly appeal to both collectors and younger fans alike.
Exclusive Anniversary Figures
This launch adds to the excitement bred by previous sets, celebrating 25 notable years. Past exclusive figures were characters like Darth Malak and ARC Trooper Fives. The uniqueness of the Cal Kestis minifigure stands out and will definitely allure enthusiasts.
A Manageable Alternative to Previous Models
This release marks another version in LEGO’s roster of Star Destroyer sets over the years. While previous models could be massive and daunting for some enthusiasts, this one provides a more manageable alternative.
Cameron Monaghan expressed interest in continuing Cal’s story through different media: It would have to make sense. But in the right context then, yeah, absolutely.
Nostalgia Meets Modern Design
The anticipation around this set also rides on the legacy of successful launches like the Lego BD-1 set from 2022. Fans know the drill – each new piece represents building excitement since Lego first collaborated with Star Wars in 1999.

If you’re thrilled by this news and eagerly waiting for August 1, 2024 – when it hits stores – you’ll be glad to know it will carry a price tag of $159.99 / AU$299.99 / £149.99 / €169.99.
