It has been 25 years since LEGO first started collaborating with Star Wars. As part of the celebration, the building brick company has released some new builds, such as the Tantive IV and a “Boarding the Tantive IV” diorama. However, new releases aren’t taking up all the buzz, as LEGO has also announced that classics like R2-D2 and the Millennium Falcon are getting special 25th Anniversary editions.LEGO’s 25th Anniversary Celebration with Lucasfilm features a Millennium Falcon set, of which there are two models already available. The big difference is that this model, item #75375, is only $84.99, making it considerably more affordable than its two predecessors. The two previous LEGO iterations of the Falcon are items #75257 and #75192. The former is priced at $169.99, while the latter is one of the most coveted – and expensive – LEGO sets available, sitting at a handsome $849.99 on LEGO’s official site. Another classic getting the 25th Anniversary treatment is everyone’s favorite droid: R2-D2. Again, the 25th Anniversary edition will be slightly cheaper than the previously available one – $99.99 compared to $239.99. It is worth noting that both the new Millennium Falcon and R2-D2 are slightly smaller than their pricier counterparts.According to a study conducted in 2018, LEGO are some of the best investments, as far as toys go. The study found that some LEGO sets are not only quite expensive, but can be resold for up to 600 percent more than their retail price. A prime example of this is the much coveted #75192 Millennium Falcon, which retails for around $850, but can be found online at prices as high as $8000. A more drastic example is that of Item #10123, Cloud City. Although it retailed for only $99.99, it’s secondhand market value exceeds $9000.
