LEGO is back with another brick-filled ode to Star Wars fans, this time offering Jabba’s Sail Barge. The new LEGO Star Wars Jabba’s Sail Barge Display Set brings the galaxy’s most notorious crime boss and his infamous party boat right into your home. With nearly 4,000 pieces—or 3,942 pieces to be precise—to wrangle, you’ll have plenty of time to reflect on your life choices while assembling Jabba’s floating palace of questionable decor and moral decisions.
Now, if you’ve been yearning to build a model of Jabba’s floating party palace, complete with all the key details like a prison cell, kitchen, and the galactic slug’s, I mean, thug’s, luxurious bed, you’re in luck. This set isn’t just for showing off—it’s for the brave few who are ready to tackle a project that’s 77 cm long, 25 cm wide, and 25 cm tall. Yes, that’s a lot of real estate for a blocky version of a crime lord’s mobile headquarters.
Opening up the barge reveals an authentically detailed interior that’ll make you feel like you’re smack in the middle of Tatooine. Jabba himself is included as a minifigure, lounging in his quarters alongside a crew of 10 other characters like Leia, R2-D2 (complete with a bar table), and Bib Fortuna.
You’ll also find Max Rebo, probably playing some smooth intergalactic jazz while Jabba plots his next criminal venture. Folding down the sides and lifting off the sails gives you full access to this wonderfully chaotic space, where everything from an armory to a prison cell to a kitchen exists, though no word on if they serve up blue milk.
The sail barge also comes with a display stand, because after all that effort, you’ll want to show it off. If anyone questions your commitment to Star Wars, just point to the 25th anniversary LEGO brick on the stand, which basically screams “ultimate collector” and the fact this big guy costs a breathtaking US$499.99.
It’s not the cheapest ride on the block, but hey, Jabba wasn’t known for his budget-friendly taste either—or any taste for that matter except for this ultimate lust for Princess Leia. Oh, and if you snag it between October 3rd and 5th, you’ll even get Luke Skywalker’s Lightsaber set as a freebie. Consider it a little bonus from a galaxy far, far away.
Speaking of which… if you’ve ever wanted to wield the power of the Force without leaving your living room, the LEGO Star Wars Luke Skywalker’s Lightsaber set is here to fulfill that dream—kind of. While it won’t slice through blast doors or make that satisfying hum, it does come as a freebie with the Jabba’s Sail Barge set between October 3rd and 5th.
It’s a detailed replica of Luke’s iconic weapon from Return of the Jedi, complete with a stand and nameplate to make sure everyone knows whose lightsaber you’ve built. Just don’t expect it to fend off Stormtroopers; it’s more about the decor than duels.
