LEGO has announced seven new Star Wars-themed sets that are coming out in early January. They include a giant set based on Luke Skywalker in his trademark orange flight suit, a 2-in-1 Darth Vader set you can hang on your wall for decoration, a LEGO recreation of the A New Hope movie poster and more. The listings are live on the LEGO Store, but none are available for preorder. Amazon has preorders available for Darth Vader Wall Art and Up-Scaled Luke Skywalker Minifigure. They’re all really cool, so let’s have a look.

Here's a look at every new LEGO Star Wars set announced for January 2027.
Darth Vader 2-in-1 Wall Art
I love the look of this set. It’s a 2-in-1 set, which means you can build two entirely different pieces of wall art with the same pieces. One form is an awesome-looking image of Darth Vader’s helmet, with red light shining on half of it. The effect is absolutely killer, if you ask me. You can hang it on the wall, or set it on a desk or shelf, using the built-in kickstand.
The other form of this set has Vader’s red lightsaber in the background, with the Sith lord’s iconic words, “I am your father” in front of them. You can build whichever one you prefer, or build one and hang it on the wall for a while before building the other. This set comes with a miniature LEGO version of the movie poster for The Empire Strikes Back.
Up-Scaled Luke Skywalker Minifigure
I don’t know about you, but I love the Up-Scaled Minifigure line of LEGO sets. They take beloved minifigures and blow them up to full-sized sets. This one has Luke Skywalker in his orange Rebel fighter jumpsuit, with a helmet and blaster. It looks awesome, and it comes with a new limited-release Princess Leia (Concept Art) minifigure, based on the early images by Star Wars artist Ralph McQuarrie.
A New Hope Movie Poster
The movie poster for the original Star Wars film A New Hope has become an iconic piece of pop art. This LEGO set has you build that poster, and it looks stunning. It shows Luke and Leia with R2-D2 and C-3PO in the foreground, with Darth Vader’s helmet and the Death Star looming large in the background. The whole thing is colorful and beautifully textured, thanks to layered bricks that gently stick out from the image.
A number of other LEGO Star Wars sets are also landing on January 1. You can see all of them in the side-scrolling catalog near the top of this page. For more info, check out our list of every upcoming LEGO set announced so far.
