The reveals for LEGO Star Wars in 2024 just keep on coming with 75396 Desert Skiff & Sarlacc Pit now being officially revealed. This is another model a part of the licensed themes action-packed August 2024 wave which includes a total of nine different sets.75396 Desert Skiff & Sarlacc Pit is one of the few sets of the wave to be under $100 retailing for $79.99 / €79.99 / £69.99 with a total of 558 pieces.
The LEGO Star Wars theme is used to high prices but this is extremely high when you consider the amount of pieces included. But this is mainly because 75396 includes a total of six Minifigures based on the Return of the Jedi. These are Luke Skywalker with a new hairpiece, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Lando Calrissian and Boba Fett along with an exclusive 25th Anniversary Minifigure of Nien Nunb.
The two main builds of the set are obviously the Desert Skiff and the Sarlacc Pit. The desert skiff features translucent elements for a hover effect and has a couple of fun play features such as a push-out plank for Luke Skywalker to walk and the foldout railing where Han Solo nearly fell off. The pit has levers to move the Sarlacc’s tentacles, and the Sarlacc has space in its mouth for a single LEGO Minifigure.
