In addition to the UCS X-Wing, LEGO have also revealed two new Star Wars dioramas celebrating the 40th anniversary of Return of the Jedi!
75352 Emperor’s Throne Room recreates the epic showdown between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader as Emperor Palpatine watches on, and 75353 Endor Speeder Chase brings to life the exhilarating speeder bike chase sequence on Endor.
Both sets will be available for pre-order on LEGO.com from 7 April 2023, ahead of a 1 May 2023 release date.
- 75352 Emperor’s Throne Room – US$99.99 / AU$159.99 / £89.99 / €99.99 / CAD$129.99

75352 Emperor’s Throne Room – 807 pieces
Minifigures: Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine
US$99.99 / AU$159.99 / £89.99 / €99.99 / CAD$129.99
I really like this diorama as this was really THE climax of original trilogy with the showdown between Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker as Palpatine watches on.
The backdrop construction makes for an incredible display piece, and it also includes a brand new hairpiece for Luke Skywalker.
It’s a little on the pricey side, but I’ll be taking a closer look at this set soon, so keep an eye out for my review!
75353 Endor Speeder Chase – 608 pieces
Minifigures: Scout Trooper, Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa in Endor fatigues
US$79.99 / AU$159.99 / £69.99 / €79.99 / CAD$99.99
For Endor fans, we have the epic Speeder Bike chase translated into a compact diorama format. It’s quite plain, and I’m not 100% sure how I feel about the straight pillar-like trees, but do appreciate the dense foliage on the ground, complete with new fern pieces.
The highlights here are Luke and Leia in their Endor fatigues, so will be very appealing for LEGO Minifigure collectors.
75352 Emperor’s Throne Room and 75353 Endor Speeder Chase will be available to pre-order on LEGO.com on 7 April 2023, ahead of a 1 May 2023 release date!
