The next Star Wars LEGO Ultimate Collector Series set has been unveiled, and it’s the highly anticipated Jabba’s Sail Barge (75397)! Clocking in at 3,942 pieces, it ranks somewhere in the middle as far as piece count is concerned, with the Millennium Falcon (75192) set reigning supreme at 7541 pieces and the recently released TIE Interceptor (75382) on the lower end of the spectrum at 1931 pieces. However, the anticipation on this set is going to be through the roof, so you’ll want to be ready and waiting to pick one up when it launches on October 3rd. Everything you need to know to make it happen can be found below.ย
