The iconic Imperial shuttle is making a return to the LEGO Star Wars lineup with the new Imperial Lambda-Class Shuttle set 75459. Inspired by its appearance in The Mandalorian Season 2, the model blends display-worthy design with a range of interactive features, giving fans a detailed version of one of the Empire’s most recognisable ships.
With 961 pieces and a recommended age rating of 14+, the set sits comfortably between a collector display model and a play-focused starship. The finished shuttle measures over 13 inches (33 cm) high, 10 inches (26 cm) long, and 14.5 inches (36 cm) wide in flight mode, giving it a substantial presence on display shelves.
Price and Availability
The set will launch on July 1, 2026, and is expected to retail for £139.99 in the UK through [LEGO UK](https://go.skimresources.com/?id=202183X1680904&xs=1&url=https://www.lego.com/en-gb/product/imperial-lambda-class-shuttle-75459).
A Faithful Recreation of an Imperial Icon
The Lambda-class shuttle has been part of Star Wars history since Return of the Jedi, but this version specifically recreates the shuttle seen in The Mandalorian Season 2. LEGO has captured the ship’s distinctive tri-wing silhouette with folding wings that shift between flight and landing configurations.
The shuttle includes several moving and play-oriented features:
• Folding wings for flight and landing modes
• Deployable landing gear
• Lowering rear exit ramp
• Two spring-loaded shooters activated in flight mode
• Opening cockpit
• Side-access passenger compartment with seating for four minifigures
The design balances clean display lines with functionality, making it equally appealing for collectors and younger fans looking to recreate scenes from the series.
Five Minifigures Included
One of the highlights of the set is the minifigure lineup. LEGO includes five characters drawn directly from The Mandalorian storyline:
• The Mandalorian
• Moff Gideon
• Imperial Shuttle Pilot
• Stormtrooper
• Dr. Pershing
Notably, this is the first LEGO minifigure version of Dr. Pershing, making the set especially interesting for collectors focused on unique Star Wars characters.
Moff Gideon also wields the Darksaber, adding another desirable accessory for fans of the Disney+ series.
