LEGO Star Wars 75459 Imperial Lambda-class Shuttle revealed!
Posted by CapnRex101,
We have already seen some interesting LEGO Star Wars sets revealed over the last few days, but May the Fourth provides the best yet, with 75459 Imperial Lambda-class Shuttle!
This model seems like the best Imperial Shuttle play set to date, including 961 pieces and some great minifigures, with Dr. Pershing a particular standout, plus a new version of Moff Gideon. The price of £139.99, $139.99 or €149.99 does seem very expensive, especially in Europe, but the quality of the design makes me feel a little better about that.
The set will be released on July 1st and more images are available below...
What do you think of the Imperial Shuttle? Let us know in the comments.

Can someone please remind me why Mando was in the shuttle? I might have forgotten the scene.
Droopy faced stormtroopers continue to kill me haha
I know Star Wars expert, but it would’ve been much more appealing if it came with four of the troopers with the orange shoulder piece like other drop ships
$140 USD but also £140 GBP… that doesn’t seem to add up…
Interesting that the main fin only uses two 1x6x5 slopes instead of three. I think the proportions are a bit off now, but otherwise it looks good.
Now this is a great ship.
I don't know, I was really anticipating this set, but this is overall pretty disappointing to me. The proportions feel off (the top fin should be taller, for example) and it's missing details like the cannons on the wings being able to fold up for landing mode. The boarding ramp is nice but the landing gear looks so barebones. Also, personally I was hoping for the wings to be brick-built instead of plate-built. In some ways it's an upgrade to 75302 , but it still doesn't hold a candle to 75094 .
At this point, I'm just hoping we get a remake of the UCS one relatively soon.

I think it looks really bad that it is so short, especially since they have always been appropriately long in previous models

It's not a drop ship. It's a Lambda-class shuttle, like the Tyderium that the Rebels used to infiltrate Endor, or the one the Emperor used to arrive on the Death Star 2. The drop ship you're thinking of has a longer body, and smaller ventral wings.
I like it — when it's in flight mode. The landed version looks a little weird to me, like it's a bit too wide. The minifigs look great, though.

In the last episode of Season 2, Mando and Cara Dune (with Boba Fett's help) board a shuttle and question Dr. Pershing to find out where the Imperial Remnant has taken Grogu.

I don’t recall any such scene either. He might just be there because Lego or Disney figure the set won’t sell if Mando and/or Grogu aren’t in it.

The wings and fin are also mounted in different places.
$140 is too much for the wings to look that bad when folded up
Agree with everyone that thinks the proportions are off here. And the price is also way off, but that's par for the course, especially for this latest Mando wave. Sheesh!

US prices are without state taxes, as they vary. But yeah still a discrepancy, chalk it up to US consumerism driving better competition on prices.
Yeah that top fin REALLY needs to be taller. I’m happy with my 10-year-old Lambda shuttle.
I'll stick with 75094. The ship is at least as good as this one but has way better minifigs.
Agreed with everyone else that the top fin is strangely short. In some ways it improves on all previous non-UCS Lambdas (overall detail and shape, boarding ramp), but the fin, landing gear, and those doubled-up wedges on the side of the cockpit are quite off-putting.
I'll buy this once it inevitably goes $10-20 on sale. Would be a decent price if not for the shortcomings I just mentioned.
Wish it was UCS
Ts so peak
That will be a pass for me. I already own 75094, which is a far superior set imo. It has a better shape due to its longer wings and has more room inside.
Also that pilot with his helmet and tactical vest looks so weird to me. He just looks like some random SWAT guy.
I was looking forward to a new shuttle, since the last one was a skip for me.
The shuttle itself is looking good imo.
€150 for not even a 1000 pieces? That is rough!
The minifigs are not very appealing. Like the last ISD, the figs are meh-ndatory, but not interesting to me.
No cool-factor to these, not even the new Grogu!
….still undecided….
Damn, might have to pick it up, it's such a cool ship and Lego has done an amazing job here.
This might be one of the best looking Star Wars sets in a while, but that price... it pains me. If I can find it on special it will be a must buy though: I really love the Imperial Shuttle design.

A Star Wars expert! Thanks. Yeah that’s the one.

I'm guessing it's supposed to be from the Season 2 finale - Shuttle 2743 on Wookieepedia.
I’m a happy owner of 75094 which I think holds up pretty well. But the new design looks great.
The "ugly hat" Imperial Pilot being the first non-UCS Imperial Grunt fig to have arm printing feels like they're trolling.
Can't understand anyone who says that this is well designed.
The proportions are way off from almost any angle. Just compare it to 75094 as others have mentioned, which while not perfect looks way better than this new one.
Add to that the weird minifigs which also were way better on the old one, and you don't even need to look at the RRP, which is beyond ridiculous. But that's of course LEGO Star Wars for you, and has been for quite a while.
But as long as enough people still don't vote with their wallets, why should LEGO change the way they treat Star Wars fans?
*sigh*
14 cents per part
This is getting out of hand.
$140 is unhinged. This should be $100, maybe $110.
My Star Wars MSRP boycott continues.

"$140 is unhinged. This should be $100, maybe $110.

And just think that the European RRP equates to almost 180 USD!
And still some people will buy the set regardless.
I just don't understand what's going on in those people's heads.
The previous ILS cost 70 bucks. How is this same size model worth 140 (double)?! Why is TLG so keen on exploiting and pissing SW fans off?
i'll stay with my 2015 shuttle it's superior compare to all others, except ucs but it's different cup of tea
Way too expensive, I'll only buy it if it's heavily discounted
Is that some photoshop-slop in the front of the cockpit or am I missing something...?
Atrocious design, too low and too wide, looks like the cousin of 75094 who needs ozempic and growth hormones or a medieval torture stretching treatment
$140 seems expensive for this, which makes the UK price look even worse. Presumably it is another set priced so it can be discounted by 30% at regular retailers.

Do you mean the explosion in the box art? As an alternative, LEGO could just show the model on a plain black background instead.
Cabin once again sits one even if the price is higher than ever.
Timed perfectly to still capture the GWP darksaber. I had no order yet, so really happy.
Having Mando in this set makes as much sense as a chocolate fireguard.

Yeah, after some research I concur. That "Shuttle Pilot" is due shortly to get shot in the face by sw1058 for making some truly unfortunate remarks about Alderaan.

Pershing only has his emblem on one arm, not the other. The pilot torso just got assigned the machine that would have printed the other arm of Pershings torso. It is actually a bit inaccurate since the Russian Tank Pilot Cap Pilot and Bodhi Rook have their imperial emblem on their right shoulders. To be fully accurate you would need to erase the imperial cog and add an imperial cog on the other arm of that pilot.

The body is an extreme upgrade since it is fully white and does not show so much of the underlying gray frame that the 2015 set kept uncovered. Just a few pieces necessary to extend the wings to be in proportion which can just be taken from the parts collection of anyone who has been collecting sets for about 10 years, or they can be ordered for pennies from Bricklink. This is an easier mod than to take the 2015 Shuttle and somehow cover up or exchange all the gray parts. Every Star Wars set needs modifications, and I already have 2 Lambdas, a Mini Lambda and a Sentinel Shuttle, so what would be the point of keeping so many of the old shuttles built when they are supposed to be identical, or at least similar?
I actually prefer a UCS-scale Lambda, so this sets inventory will go straight to the pieces of the updated BrickVault Lambda, and with the smaller set we actually get 2 exclusive minifigures and finally another shot at a standard Gideon that would otherwise not have made it into the line at all. I might get two of these to have the two pilots, and Mando, Gideon and Pershing are in enough scenes that 2 of each makes sense, but that will have to wait until the price is discounted.
Definitely one of the better 100$+ mainline sets in recent years.
@Anonym: wholeheartedly disagree on practically every point except for the mention of the grey pieces on the underside of the older one.
But seriously, at that price the customer should not have to mod anything or be required to buy extra pieces separately just to get it up to specs.
In recent years, TLG has - very likely - increasingly adjusted prices for maximum purchase will in some countries, not for actual purchase power. This has left some countries, like my own and our neighbours (Scandinavia/Nordics + Switzerland. According to prices listed on Brickset ) in an almost funny price-range.
Just a small comparison for all of you. Number of parts, minifigures and (seemingly) mass is close to identical:
In 2015/16 the 75094 Imperial Shuttle Tydirium was listed at 999 NOK here and 100 Euro (at the time equivalent to around 950 NOK at the time.
Now, in 2026, this is listed at 2099 NOK here, equivalent to 193 Euro by May 4th. The listed price at 150 Euro, is around 1600 NOK, which is still expensive.
Adjusted for inflation, compared to the 2015-model, we’re having to deal with a price increase of around 55-60%.
That’s not taking into consideration how much more profitable Lego is today. Independent toy stores are almost non existent here, and when we get “huge” discounts, we’re probably in the 140-150 euro range from large online stores.
Not to say that the Euro, GBP and USD prices are utterly expensive, it does put things in perspective. I don’t know of any Norwegians able to buy their kids gifts in this price-range.
Yeah it´s the same in Sweden, cost is 1900 SEK, around $200.
Just don't get me started on the price for the HP East Wing set...
I've bought two Star Wars sets in the last four years, the theme has just gone downhill in every parameter.
Lego has clearly not learned from the Clone Turbo Tank and its outrageaous price. In Dutch we would say: whatever the fool is willing to give for it
I'd buy this I do like the imperial shuttle I always have but wish the Minifigs were better,
I can't wait to see the Grey Sand crawler now.
As someone who missed out on the last few versions, happy to finally be able to add a shuttle to my small Imperial fleet.
For that price it should've come with a stand to be able to display it in flight.
It looks.. fine. I don't like how overengineered the underside of the wings are, with so many light grey pieces too instead of all white (which LEGO conveniently brightened on the box art to appear more close in shade, compare with the lifestyle shot of the wings folded up).
I think 75302 is still my favourite of the Lambda’s, but this does have some nice details.
I think it's time for another UCS shuttle, it's been a long time since the first one. Although I'd hate to imagine what TLG would charge for that, if this set is anything to go by

Quite literally, what set would actually be good according to your standards? If it is not too small, it is too big. Like even if the pieces were included, which LEGO probably did not include to keep the pricepoint, would you pay 160$ for the full vehicle or 180$ for the full vehicle with full complement of figures?
LEGO is an inherently easily modable medium, so at least things can be repaired and made better. Just look at action figure collectors, their only Lambdas are so small that only LEGO figures can use the entrance walkway and they have no other option but to use that or omit it. Having a customizable kit needing just a few cents to be absolutely fine really beats having nothing at all.
I have looked and looked and looked and I’m just struggling to find any significant improvements with this version, certainly none that would support that price. I’ll wait for the Brickset review, of course. I am, however, curious about the ramp since we can’t see much. I hope Cap compares the last 3 equivalent versions.
I don't remember Ringo Starr being in Star Wars, but I'm glad they included his minifig anyway.

Haha, it's the same for me. I don't really buy (new) Lego-sets anymore, because of the prices and overall boring licensed portfolio. I might buy sets in the 119-499 kr range, if discounted.
I get the impression that Lego in the long term is aiming for being an "adults only/mainly" company, which they might already are (?). Even the City theme is so expensive now, that prices there are comparable to those of Star Wars in say 2021/22. A firetruck for 1000 NOK? :)
Does it come in black?
ooof. Some definite improvements, but also some drawbacks.
We get back the rare 1846 Vehicle Mudguard in White, which only appeared in one other set as far as I can tell. A boarding ramp which seems pretty accurate, and much better fuselage details - especially up front at the dual cannons and alongside the stab folding joints.
But the center stabilizer is going backwards in design. It needs another big white slope added to the bottom of the stack to get the shape right. As usual the cockpit is always a compromise...75094 still wins that contest.
Oh well, I'll just go to my office and thank the stars for EvilKirk's masterpiece sitting on display. It is the Alpha...of the Lambdas...

Most of the sets I like always show up on the secondary market in time or at another toy store at a reduced price, it's no big deal, stopped buying directly from the Lego store yaears ago. The still do crank out nice sets once in a while, mainly in Ninjago, but I've stopped feeding the machine.
may the 4th a star wars set how funny

Well, I already have one of the older Lambda type shuttles and am very happy to keep that one.
This new one doesn't offer anything to me the older ones didn't, and certainly not at the price they are asking for this one.
Seriously, how on Earth is that RRP even anywhere close to justifiable? No prints, no particularly outstanding minifigs, nothing of such a value as to make the RRP reasonable.
And by the way, I am happy with most of the sets I have, no reason to mod any of them. If I do so anyway I usually do it to build something entirely different out of the pieces. There's hardly any set I keep built and on display. The only ones I have on permanent display are the Modulars that I have (and I only have about half of those, I am no completionist after all).
Maybe interesting for those who missed the previous boxes of this one
Or collectors to keep it boxed until it gets taken down, to try resell it for an even more idiotic price
I am not that big a fan of the star wars theme to pay 150 bucks for less than 1000 pieces of which are many seem just common parts, even not when it gets discounted
140 was way too much. But I decided to preorder it today because I added a battlepack and got the darksaber gwp, mini razor crest, and 15% rakuten

I don't disagree it is expensive, but remember that not everybody has the older sets and so will likely want this one. Buying this is better value than buying a past one on the secondary market.
Besides the figs I dont really understand the praise for this over 75302

But when you do not even care about the thing the set represents, how can it be important that the sets build is accurately proportioned or complete?
When it is just about the price of the contents, the actual sales price is going to be 105€ due to the perpetual discounts from retailers.
I think you just prefer the older set more because you already have it and upgrading gives little improvement, especially with that hierarchy to the importance of the design features, but that does not make the new set worse. More features that have been neglected in prior sets finally got the attention they deserved.

Where in all my comments did I say that I don't care about the thing the set represents?
With each of your comments you imply things I did not say.
All I did say was that I am happy with the older version and that the new one doesn't offer anything that justifies the ridiculous RRP to me.
And no, just because LEGO kills the normal toy stores on purpose doesn't make it better. Sure, giants like Amazon may discount this set by 30 or 40 percent, but those just bring the set down to what the RRP should have been in the first place. Even then it's not a good deal.
Normal toy stores won't even list this set since at the RRP or the low discounts they can offer, the sets won't shift.

Still doesn't make it anything near fair value.
The disgusting thing is that LEGO set the RRP so high exactly for the reason you mention.
They know the secondary market prices for the older ones will make this seem like a good deal to those who are looking for one now.
But the fact remains that a set with 961 normal pieces without the Star Wars emblem on it would have an RRP of 99.99 Euro. And even at that price it would feel expensive.
Compare it with the F1 helmets. Those have almost 900 pieces and cost 89.99, and many people including the reviewer state that that's relatively expensive. Which is true of course.
But with those sets you get dozens of printed and specialized pieces and no expense has been spared.
With this set, as per usual for Star Wars, every expense has been spared, you get the bare minimum and still are expected to somehow justify the insane RRP.

Yes, it is expensive. But as I mentioned earlier, it would not surprise me at all if this set is reduced by 20 or 30 percent at regular retailers after a few months to make it appear like a good deal. That is the way pricing for many items has gone recently, not just LEGO.
LEGO knows what sells and at what prices. They know when to put items on general release as opposed to exclusive. They exist to make as much money as possible, and seem to have optimised their offerings and pricing to do that very well.

At the end of season 2 after the Razor Crest is blown up, they ride with Boba Fett and intercept the shuttle which is carrying the Dr. They then use it to board Gideon's ship to get Grogu.
That price is atrocious. Sorry, but no.
The pilot has the imperial logo on the wrong arm and the code cylinders are inexplicably lowered to make room for it. Even when we get arm printing, LEGO finds some way to make it bad.
The build is actually great though.
Don't care much for the shuttle but damn if Dr. Pershing doesn't have some slick 70's vibe going on.

I still buy new sets but only when they're heavily discounted. Just last week bought the 31215 Vincent Van Gogh Sunflower for US$75. Other purchases from last month include 60419 Police Prison Island for US$55, 11024 Grey Baseplates for US$7 each, 10391 Over The Moon for US$70 etc.
Nice minifigures but will wait for the inevitable discount on Amazon before going anywhere near it.
But it's deformed! It looks squashed, the fin is cut off by quite a few cm!!! Horrible and the price is out of control.
