LEGO today has released official images for their three new Star Wars Diorama Sets. These will be offered later today during the Walmart Collector-Con event, but are also now available directly from LEGO.Death Star Trash Compactor DioramaBegin a creative mission to recreate a legendary Star Wars: A New Hope scene with this Death Star Trash Compactor Diorama (75339) set. It is packed with authentic details, including moving walls and a dianogas head. Place Luke Skywalker and Han Solo (both dressed as Stormtroopers), Princess Leia and Chewbacca inside Garbage Compactor 3263827, and C-3PO and R2-D2 at the compactors controls trying to switch it off. Attach the plaque with Han Solos dry quip (One thing's for sure. Were all gonna be a lot thinner.) to complete a nostalgic display piece.Death Star Trench Run DioramaChannel Jedi-like focus and recreate a memorable moment from Star Wars: A New Hope with this Death Star Trench Run Diorama (75329) building set. Capture a snapshot of that gripping scene in intricate detail, from the surface of the Death Star to the brick-built models of Darth Vaders TIE Advanced fighter and 2 TIE fighters in hot pursuit of Luke Skywalkers X-wing. Attach the plaque bearing Darth Vaders words (The Force is strong with this one) to complete a nostalgia-inspiring centerpiece.Dagobah Jedi Training DioramaFocus, you must, to construct this LEGO Star Wars Dagobah Jedi Training Diorama (75330). This brick-built display model is packed with instantly recognizable details from an iconic Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back scene. Recreate Yodas hut in the swamps of Dagobah, and the wing of Luke Skywalkers sunken X-wing. Add the LEGO minifigures of Yoda and Luke Skywalker, plus an R2-D2 LEGO droid figure (Luke and R2-D2 feature new-for-May-2022 decoration). To complete a nostalgic display piece, attach the plaque bearing Yodas words: Do. Or do not. There is no try.
