2024 marks 25 years of the LEGO Star Wars theme and we've already seen two exclusive Minifigures revealed to coincide with celebrations. These are ARC Trooper Fives in 75387 Boarding the Tantive IV and then Darth Malek in 75379 R2-D2 which both became available starting the 1st of March 2024. But in just a months time we'll be getting our third of five LEGO Star Wars 25th Anniversary Minifigures.
This is a Veteran of the Clone Wars and a popular character who appeared in the spin-off movie Rogue One, Saw Gerrera. He will is fully exclusive like the other two Minifigures and stands on an exclusive LEGO Star Wars 25th Anniversary printed piece. The Minifigure of Saw Gerrera includes Finn's hair piece from the Rise of Skywalker along with a cape and a couple of armour pieces and printing to complete his fierce look.
The LEGO Star Wars set that this exclusive Saw Gerrera appears in is 75383 Darth Maul's Sith Infiltrator which will retail for $69.99 with a total of 640 pieces. The Sith Infiltrator is a heavily modified version of a Star Courier and the personal starship of Darth Maul. The starship was last seen in brick-built LEGO form in 2015 with 75096 Stih Infiltrator which retailed for $89.99 with only 662 pieces.
Clearly, 75383 is cheaper and slightly smaller than 2015's 75096 but this is mainly due to it including less of the larger front wing pieces that were used in 75096. 75383 is of course ever so slightly smaller in its build anyway but still includes three probe droids, a couple of shooters, different hatches and elements to open up and a small cockpit for Darth Maul. The Sith Lord is also lucky enough to have his tiny speeder included in 75383 too.
Moving away from the build, we've not done with the Minifigure lineup just yet. Along with an exclusive Saw Gerrera as the 25th Anniversary Minifigure, we'll also be getting Qui-Gon Jinn, a young Anakin Skywalker and of course, Darth Maul who comes with a red lightsaber. A fairly lacklustre Minifigure lineup when you consider the $69.99 price tag but LEGO will argue that the exclusive Minifigure alone deserves a high price.
