Some Of The Rarest LEGO Star Wars Sets Ever Made

Some Of The Rarest LEGO Star Wars Sets Ever Made

To find out the rarest LEGO Star Wars sets ever made, we have rolled up our sleeves and we have gone to Brickset, known for being the most complete database for information related to LEGO. There, we have gone through the 760 LEGO sets that are tagged as Star Wars to find out which are the rarest sets ever made. For us, rare means not only difficult to find but also appealing. Before we jump into the list, let’s clarify how we have decided which are the rarest LEGO Star Wars sets ever made.

Classification parameters to decide which are the rarest LEGO Star Wars sets ever made

As we have just said, rare means difficult to find, but also appealing. Nobody wants to know about that set that came free with the Star Wars magazine in June 2018 but that hardly anyone is interested in buying (that’s the 911836: Quadjumper, just in case you are wondering).

So, what we have done is going through the data from Brickset. Brickset offers two data points which we think are very interesting. The first one is the number of people that own that specific set and the number of people that want that specific set. Obviously, that is only people that have filled the data into Brickset, but it should be a good enough extrapolation of the overall interest.

The lower the number of people that owned it, the higher the difference with people that wanted had to be. For example, for pieces that are owned by less than 200 people, we wanted to see at least 1000 people interested in it. However, for the most famous sets that are owned by 2000 or 3000 people, we only needed 1000 or 2000 people more that were interested in it.

To make sure that these pieces were actually wanted, we checked the prices that they were sold for and compared them to the current prices. If there was an increase in the price, that was the final sign for the set to be on the list.

Now that the parameters are explained, let’s see which are the rarest sets.

34 Rarest LEGO Star Wars Sets Ever Made

In order to give a certain logic to this list, we have ordered it starting with the set that had the least owners in Brickset. From there, we go in ascending order until the one that has the more owners.

Yoda display box

The first set is a very unique one. The Yoda display box that was produced specially for New York Comic-Con in 2013.

There were only 150 of these produced. In Brickset, only 20 people own this set, whereas it is wanted by 505 people. In Bricklink, this set is not even available to purchase.

Collectable Display Sets 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

This is actually a collection of 6 different sets but, since they are related and quite similar, we have placed them all together. These 6 sets were given during the San Diego Comic-Con in 2009. All six sets were limited to 300 units, individually numbered. Each set included three minifigs from the Star Wars saga.

All of these sets are owned by around 100 people in Brickset, and all of them have a list of around 1.000 people wanting to have them. To understand how rare these sets are, most of them are not even for sale. The only ones that have some available for sale in Bricklink are sets 3 & 6. Set 6 can be bought for around $110, from a retail price of $50. Set 3 is priced beyond $300, with only one seller. Talk about rare sets!

Darth Vader (Nürnberg Toy Fair 2005 Exclusive Figure)

The next set is a Darth Vader exclusive figure. IT was given to attendees of the LEGO display at the International Toy Fair in Nuremberg, Germany, back in 2005.

Only 86 people state in Brickset that they own this figure, and there are 871 that want it. In Bricklink, there is only one seller and the price is mindblowing. $500.

Yoda Chronicles Promotional Set

The next set is another exclusive promotional set. The Yoda Chronicles Promotional Set was given away to journalists back in May 2013 to promote the premiere of The Yoda Chronicles in an event in New York.

10018 Darth Maul Bust

10026: Special Edition Naboo Starfighter

The Special Edition Naboo Starfighter is part of the Ultimate Collector Series. This set was released in 2002 and it contains 187 pieces.

1875 people own this set in Brickset, and 3394 people want it. This high demand has a huge impact on the price. Even though this simple set was sold for only $40 in retail, it has gone up to an incredible $350 for a used set and all the way to $700 for a new set in Bricklink.

10019 Rebel Blockade Runner

The Rebel Blockade Runner is another set from LEGO that is very sought after. Released back in 2001 as part of the Ultimate Collector Series, this set is extremely sought after.

According to Brickset, it is owned by 2111 people on that platform, but there are 5565 people that want it. This big demand makes this one of the most expensive sets to buy. Even though the retail price was $200, the set can be found now for a minimum of $500 used in Bricklink. If you are looking for a new and sealed set, the price goes up to $1000.

10143 Death Star II

The Death Star II was released in 2005 and it is part of the Ultimate Collector’s Series. This is one of the rarest sets from the list.

This set is owned by 2292 people, but what makes it rare is the number of people that want it. A total of 6728 people in Brickset would like to have this set. That makes this one of the most valuable sets in the market. Even though the price was already high at retail, $270, the demand has brought the current value to a completely different level. Offers for used sets start at $850 and offers for new sets start at $3000. That is a lot of money for a LEGO set!

10134 Y-wing Attack Starfighter

The next set is the Y-wing Attack Starfighter. Also part of the Ultimate Collector Series, this set was released back in 2004.

This set is owned by a total of 2300 people in Brickset, with 4346 people interested in having it. The retail price back in 2004 was $120. Due to the high demand, this set is now worth $300 for used sets and $600 for new sets.

7181 TIE Interceptor

The TIE Interceptor is another rare Star Wars set. This set was released in 2000 and it is also part of the Ultimate Collector Series.

This set is owned by 3221 people, with 4969 having marked it as wanting it. Even though not as sought as the Rebel Blockade Runner, the increase in price compared to the retail price is similar, even higher here. This set was selling at $100 when in circulation. At the time of this writing, it could be bought for $250 used in Bricklink. If you wanted it to be new and sealed, the price would go up all the way to $1000, which comes to show how few units are available in this condition.

10195: Republic Dropship with AT-OT Walker

The Republic Dropship with AT-OT Walker is also a rare set. Released in 2009 it is a set based on the Clone Wars.

3299 people own this set and 7049 want it. The retail price of this set was $250, but that has increased to $500 for a used set and $850 for a new set in Bricklink

10030 Imperial Star Destroyer

The Imperial Star Destroyer is also part of the Ultimate Collector’s Series. Released in 2002, this set is one of the classics from the LEGO Star Wars Saga. However, due to its popularity and demand, we also consider it a rare one.

This set is owned by 3434 people in Brickset, with a total of 6793 people wanting it. Even though this set cost $250 when selling in retail, the current value has increased all the way to around $1200 for a new and sealed set from Bricklink.

10179 Millennium Falcon

Our last set from the list is the Millennium Falcon. This set was released in 2007. Also part of the Ultimate Collector’s Series, this set is one of the more valued sets in the market.

3892 people own this set, but it is wanted by a total of 8905 people. This set was very expensive when in retail. The price was $500. However, the investment would have paid off. There are no new and sealed sets that are selling for less than $2000.
