MicroFighters are small, squashed down versions of Star Wars ships and vehicles, each with an oversized cockpit for a single pilot minifigure and usually a pair of flick missiles or stud shooters. They started in 2014 with the Millennium Falcon, an X-wing, a TIE Interceptor and a Star Destroyer, and the early waves were sold as numbered series. The ships come from every part of the saga, the prequels and the original films, the sequel trilogy, Rogue One, Rebels and The Mandalorian, and the Falcon has been made more than once. From 2018 some boxes paired two small builds against each other, such as an AT-AT and a tauntaun.
2024 LEGO Sets
In 2024, LEGO broadened its creative reach through major new licenses, digital experiences, and sustainability goals. The LEGO Dune theme debuted with the Atreides Royal Ornithopter, faithfully capturing the design of the 2021 film. A landmark collaboration with Epic Games introduced LEGO Fortnite, blending survival, building, and over 1,200 minifigure-style characters. Other notable releases included LEGO Animal Crossing and LEGO The Legend of Zelda, expanding LEGO’s Nintendo partnership, and LEGO Wicked, tied to the upcoming musical film. LEGO Despicable Me returned alongside sets for the new Despicable Me 4 movie, while LEGO Star Wars marked its 25th anniversary with commemorative editions. Sustainability remained central to LEGO’s mission as it reaffirmed goals to use 50% renewable or recycled materials by 2026 and phase out fossil-based plastics by 2032.
