75358 Tenoo Jedi Temple revealed!

I don’t know what the heck that is. But I sure want it!
[I did read a couple of THR books so I do have a vague idea].

Minifigs are nice, and I think that's a new big ugly building assembly (BUBA).

Good point.

Edit: Those colors don't seem to reflect the Jedi ethic of humility and simplicity.

That's a nice speeder bike!

Cool set, great minifigs, obscene price. Even with the large, printed pieces, $40 for this is crazy. And it can't be purely "the Disney Tax" at this point, because the Star Wars sets eclipse the also-owned-by-Disney Marvel sets on that front. This thing is $.32/pc. Yes, not all pieces are the same, and there are huge pieces, and no stickers, but $.32/pc is insane.

Look at this in comparison to the 4+ Spider-Man sets like 10790 ($35,) or 10783 ($30), both about $.23/pc. Those two sets have a lot more "stuff" and look like a much better value, while also having large pieces and a lot of printing.

This is almost as bad as the insanely-overpriced 75332 going for $35 (FORTY CENTS PER PIECE!).

Phase I of the High Republic seems to be in a more gilded age period of the Republic, and there's a running theme of grandiosity and great works. The Jedi being more ornate seems to be in keeping with that. (The question of why they flipped from "ornate" to "simple" by 32 BBY is still open. The Novel "The Fallen Star," set in 200 BBY or so, ends with a pretty disastrous loss for the Jedi and may be a contributing factor on why their attitude changed.)

I'm in it for the new Jedi youngling minifigs, so hopefully those can be acquired for not too much (not as interested in the set as a whole, but I would go for that High Republic emblem)

Don't you mean BBY? As in, Before Battle of Yavin? 200 ABY would mean it would be way past the end of Rise of Skywalker...

Yoda out here rocking the anime eyes lol!

Bleah, correct. BBY.

Although I'd be happy if Lego did some sets from Star Wars: Legacy which was set around 140 ABY. It involved Luke's drug-addicted great-grandson and was an utter hoot. (It's very much out of canon since the Disney takeover and EU reboot.)

That Yoda torso could work well for a purist temple guard!

I probably won't pick this up, but the amount of stuff you get for the price isn't awful

Honestly this is probably the best stylized Yoda head design Lego has done. Less sharp and off-putting than the original mold they used for the Clone Wars, but still very expressive. It's quite appealing. I don't think it would be a full replacement for the current realistic Yoda head sculpt, but the fact that the eyes are printed can allow for this mold to be more easily reused for different styles depending on the situation. One of the few new molds for legacy characters in recent years that I can fully get behind on my first impression; faster to warm up to than neck-injury Vader and less drastic of a change to a classic silhouette as the new OT hair molds.

Is that a new panel piece for the temple? I don't recall seeing it before.

The most interesting are printed windscreens. I wish lego made more of them. Such simple yet amazing piece

Yoda looks so strange... I love it! Honestly a really good set, and it will probably satisfy until we get an actual rendition of the Coruscant Jedi Temple.

I won't get it at that price, but I think this is a pretty decent set overall.

But…but…..where’s Nubs?? :-(

That ppp is scandalous

So Mace Windu is no longer the only Jedi with a purple lightsaber...

As an AFOL parent, I would spend my $40 on three action figures from this series before spending $40 on this 124 piece set.

Even at the same price per piece, Jack Stone sets had more play value.

Did Brickset accidentally post its April Fools article a few days early?

The minifigs look really good, especially the pantoran face print. Yoda and Kai's new molds look a bit odd, but I think I still like them. The set itself seems fine. It doesn't look fantastic, but it also doesn't look hideous like the ATST. The price definitely seems a bit much, but I guess that's normal for 4+. Are those midlegs in new colors or is it weird lighting? I think I'm most excited about Pantorans making an appearance. I would love to see a Riyo Chuchi figure at some point.

Very cool to see The High Republic finally make it into LEGO form, albeit for the 4+ range! Here's to hoping that the Acolyte show receives the same treatment.

Meanwhile, the two RotJ 40th sets which have been spotted in the wild already are still to be officially revealed… ha.

LSW is helping me a lot when it comes to saving money this year.
Even if this were an interesting set, it's way overpriced (expected at ths point). Yoda looks goofy af, only marginally better than the TCW anime variant.
Also, the "Jedi" robes look like Ninjago. No thanks.

As for the show, does anyone else think DLFL realized how badly they messed up with the sequel trilogy? The material was right there for Luke's Academy on Yavin 4. Now they're making that but with Yoda instead of Luke. Well, it remains to be seen how it's received.

€ 20,- @ Amazon, ok?

Ridiculous price for 124 pieces

Love how this looks actually but for £38? Uhhh HARD pass. If I can get it for like £30 or under then I'm down. The builds actually look pretty cool despite their simplicity

Are you referring to the panels with printed stone blocks? Those do look nice.

this is not the Jedi Temple I am looking for.

(seriously, how has there not been a Coruscant Jedi Temple set yet??)

interesting couple of figures though, new alien head and jedi robes are always handy.

Wow, Disco Yoda.

Amazingly overpriced. LEGO has lost it's mind recently.

Another hideously overpriced +4 set that is destined to clog the shelves alongside 75332

Interesting characters but a bit pricey definitely will wait for discount.

I actually quite like this build. If it was $20, I might consider it.

What looks interesting is a "learn to build" feature of this set. Is it in any other sets?

On sale for $30 and I'll buy it in a heartbeat.
Love that we finally get a Pantoran - and the High Republic robes are awesome!

If you haven't read the High Republic books, you should check them out. I've highly enjoyed them myself.

Ukraine bed

This is the requested set of all time

Lovely set, very cool figures, but the price is disgusting. This set should be 19.99 or 24.99 max but not 39.99. Lego has lost the plot.

It just doesn't make sense to me that a set like escape from the lost tomb and this can be put on the shelf for the same price point. Piece count aside, there's absolutely no way this contains anywhere near the amount of plastic that set does.

By the way, this set is 30.6p / 32.3c / 34.7c per piece. 4+ sets should be VERY indicative of how screw price-per-piece is as a metric. (It's an obnoxious price by any standard, but 4+ sets' tendency to chonky pieces really messes with how the metric is intended to work.)

If I can get 50% off on amazon I'm in. (Like all the Stuntz sets and Vidiyo). Long may it continue that Lego keep making stuff nobody wants and I get a hefty discount.

Somebody said something about a blue ewok? I want that!

"For a second I miss read the second paragraph as :

This 4+ set takes inspiration from the new Young Jedi Adventures animated series, which exploits younglings under Master Yoda."

The Younglings just oughta be grateful to the Jedi for schooling them in dispassioned weapons use even while their families are left to rot as slave-laborers.

Is this the Jedi Temple us fans want to see and deserve? TLG certainly thinks so. :((

P.S. If Grogu looks old as a 50 year old youngling, how can adolescent Yoda look that fresh? And at what age does the skin tone change from sand green to olive green?

Me seeing Jedi Temple lego set- :-)
Me seeing it’s this- :-(

I mean, I only get Disney related stuff secondhand now as a rule, but still- been wanting an actual temple ever since Episode 1 came out

"Some great characters and some truly useful printed elements. Man, I want a bunch of that printed window element.

Hate the price of it but man they do get some good, fun, and useful new elements. "

With most people likely into this set for the minifigs, I wouldn't expect those printed opaque window pieces to be *too* pricey on the aftermarket. FingersCrossed

Nice to finally have a canon one that doesn’t exist solely to suit the preferences of Samuel L. Jackson.

This is not the Jedi Temple we wanted but, it is a good satellite Jedi Temple.

"Sigh. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars:_Young_Jedi_Adventures:

"Set during the High Republic era, centuries before the events of the main Star Wars films, Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures follows a group of younglings as they learn the ways of the Force, including compassion, self-discipline, team work and patience, to become Jedi Knights."

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars:_The_High_Republic:

"Star Wars: The High Republic is a multimedia project consisting of various stories from the Star Wars franchise set during the "High Republic" era, which spans 350 to 50 years before the Skywalker Saga and is set hundreds of years after the fall of the "Old Republic". The initiating event of the sub-franchise is "The Great Disaster" involving the antagonistic "space Vikings" known as the Nihil and the subsequent intervention of the Jedi."

Everybody please stop the "Anakin is going to kill these kids" speculation. The kids will all either die of old age or possibly be murdered by space vikings."

KORG: Come, come, gather round, and listen to the legend of the Space Viking. AKA the God of Thunder. AKA Thor Odinson.

I'm fairly certain this Yoda is bright green or lime green and not sand green. I think the differences can be equated to art style though.

lmao? Jaina Solo had a purple lightsaber before Mace Windu. Anakin Solo had one, Corran Horn, An'ya Kuro, Tott Doneeta, Darth Revan at one point…

I’m clearly not the audience for this but I’m glad it exists and I am drawn to some of the parts and figs. $40 is steep, but it does have the dollhouse aspect that will make for good play - a better value than the similarly priced 4+ AT-ST Walker set, which also only had one named fig.

That kai brightstar torso looks like some minifig using the default fortnite skin would use , because of that orange scarf/bandana around the neck + the belt buckle.

Ok the green doesn't match but that's still what reminded me of.

Please. This is Star Wars. They'd be Space Opera Vikings. They'd probably have light-horns on their helmets.

Those are some great figs for a Juniors set!

Unless he values home, hearth, and friendship in a way that his professional persona doesn’t convey to me, I doubt it.

Kai and Lys should really have short legs, not mid-legs, judging by their young age in the show.

LEGO Harry Potter established how legs and ages work. Apparently, minifigures should have short legs until they're 12 or so, mid-legs for 13 and 14 then regular legs from 15 up.
That's what is suggested by the sets at least.

I do understand though that having legs pozeabiltiy is better for kids' play experience.

The US LEGO site is saying this is available July 1st. I'll go ahead and add it to the wishlist between now and then :-P

I for one was surprised and overall very pleased to see this set announced this morning! It's notable for having some of the first figures available from the High Republic era of any toy manufacturer.

This just looks like fun, it's colorful, we get some new canon characters, and those bigger pieces look like they can be used to make some interesting cover for a squad of clones too. Piece count is not what to focus on with this set since some of those parts are massive molds! Then consider that both kids have a new hairpiece and Yoda has a new head with a new print. I'd prefer to find this on sale but yup, this is a set I'd even consider buying for $40. I can afford that.

Probably going to swap in the more realistic Yoda head most of the time, and I appreciate that they didn't exaggerate the kids' faces, so that they both integrate well with minifigures from other sets.

The pictures are fun to look at. This was a fun surprise.

Wow, this is actually pretty cool looking. A bit expensive, but cool nonetheless. Especially not really baby Yoda.
I don't even know the story this is based off.

Nice.

"But, I’m tryin’, Ringo. I’m tryin’ REAL hard to be the shepherd."

These sets are obviously not completely aimed at young builders/ are extremely awfully designed as a complete packages for that demographic.
1. Look at the price, no sane parent will buy these at these prices, if they have other sets at their disposal
2. Minifig collectors will gladly pay the price for a few unique minifigs.
3. No kid (at least based on the few cousins I have) has the patience to put up with those awful instructions. They loose their interest about a quarter of the way in, because it takes so goddamn long to build such a small set.
(For a full explanation of my points, I wrote a review on the Juniors Endor set, that touches on that take quite extensively.)

Young Jedi Adventures; new preschool-age show Disney is coming out with, set in their "High Republic" time period. Basically, this takes place in between the supposed extinction of the Sith and the revelation in The Phantom Menace that they are in fact still around.

How many of those guys are actually still canon? Mace Windu for sure, and maybe Darth Revan. (that's a big maybe!)

Excellent minifig pack. But ouch ! How does it come at such a steep price !?

How is $40 a super steep price for this set, which comes with multiple GIANT molded pieces and three new minifigure molds? Plus new prints! Those are not stickers. Price seems on par to me considering inflation and how our Lego Star Wars battle packs have risen to $20 each for the same sized set. Finding Tenoo Jedi Temple on sale would be a steal if you ask me.

Just take a step back and look at the thing for a second, people.

@Brick_t_ said:
"Excellent minifig pack. But ouch ! How does it come at such a steep price !?"

They forgot to change the 4+ to 4x the price.

Great for the intended audience.
Will STILL buy as non-intended audience, to add the minis to my figure collection.
Temple parts could be used for larger MOC.
Who doesn't love printed bricks... well, I do, anyway.

"If Grogu looks old as a 50 year old youngling, how can adolescent Yoda look that fresh? And at what age does the skin tone change from sand green to olive green? "

The skin tone and overall appearance of the new Yoda head is more about matching the aesthetics of the animated show than anything else.

It’s also worth remembering that this is definitely not “adolescent” Yoda. If Yoda is approximately 900 years old in RotJ then he’s still over 850 years old around the time of the prequel trilogy.

If this part of the High Republic is meant to be around 300 years or so BBY then Yoda is actually something close to 600 years old at this point.

900 years is an insanely long lifetime by our frame of reference: the equivalent would be someone who lived through all of medieval Europe, the Renaissance, and on through the Industrial Revolution into the 20th Century. If we went back around 250 years to them being around for the American War of Independence then they would still be somewhere around 650 years old at the time. It’s crazy in that context!

It's official, Lego Star Wars prices have gone from outrageous, to absurd, and have transitioned to ludicrous for 2023! The amount of value they include in sets continues to steadily decrease while they keep jacking the prices up. The prices on the 2 new diorama sets that are coming out are out of this world, and the sets themselves appear to be really underwhelming after watching some YouTube reviews of them. It's been an extremely disappointing year so far for the Lego Star Wars theme, only sets that I have bought so far are the Tie Bomber and the clone trooper battle pack, and it may stay that way the way things are going.

Piece count is not how Lego determines their price, etc.
Licensing, prints, large pieces, etc. play a role.
