Two Beautiful Sets With LEGO® Fan Requested Scenes And Highly Collectible Minifigures

LEGO® Group is finally catching on to how much the brick community adores minifigures and Star Wars—but let’s be real, they have always known.

Two sets were released in August 2024: LEGO® 75396: Desert Skiff and Sarlacc Pit and LEGO® 75385: Ahsoka Tano’s Duel On Peridea. Both sets contain iconic scenes, characters we love, and unique minifigure printing we can’t wait to get our hands on. Let’s cover the sets, the scenes, the pieces, and the minifigures in our Baumlinks LEGO® Reviews!

The Scene

We all know this one: the trumpet blasts as each character looks at the other, R2-D2 launches Luke’s custom-built green lightsaber into the air, and the Jedi motif plays as Luke begins to slash through all of Jabba the Hutt’s henchmen on sail barges. And yes, you still get a Sarlacc Pit with the hungry Sarlacc ready to eat Boba Fett alive!

The Pieces and Price

With 558 pieces, the price is steep at $79.99. Ever wonder why LEGO® sets are so expensive? We are looking at a bank-breaker and a solid 2 hours of nostalgic build time.

The Minifigures

The LEGO® Star Wars minifigures in this set are out of this galaxy and highly collectible. Plus, you get five total:

Luke Skywalker: Classic Return of the Jedi attire with beautiful grey printing.

Han Solo: Squinting after just being woken up from Carbonite.

Chewbacca: Our furry friend with his iconic ammo sash.

Lando Calrissian: In his undercover Jabba henchmen gear.

Nien Numb: Collectible Sullustan Rebel Alliance minifigure.

Wicked expensive for 558 pieces but you get an iconic scene and five wonderfully remastered minifigures. A marvelous display piece to hold for the long haul! Want to flip figs? Here’s how to sell LEGO® minifigures. I love the set.

The Scene

The Disney+ show Ahsoka has only released one season so far. This scene comes from the final episode and the final assault on Peridea. Ezra Bridger, Sabine Wren, and Ahsoka lead a charge against Thrawn and Morgan Elsbeth under Sith pillars. The Storm Trooper zombies were an adrenaline-inducing touch!

The Pieces and Price

384 pieces at $54.99. Here you pay for the minifigures and the scene, not the piece count.

The Minifigures

Ahsoka Tano's Duel On Peridea Minifigures

Five exceptional minifigures: Ahsoka Tano with her iconic grey lightsabers, Ezra Bridger with stunning red robe printing, Morgan Elsbeth with a unique green blade build, Grand Admiral Thrawn, and a Night Trooper with awesome battle-damaged armor.

Both sets are pricey, but the minifigures are exceptional. The summer 2024 lineup was strong—the force was with these sets! Pair Ahsoka with one of the best Star Wars LEGO battle packs. I love the set and consider it a Baumlinks buy without question.

Epic Star Wars Builds From Summer 2024

Both sets dropped in August 2024 and delivered on all fronts. The LEGO® Star Wars minifigures will last a lifetime—and have the potential to double your investment as a LEGO® resale purchase!
