This New LEGO Star Wars Set Is Already on Backorder Just Days After Release
Wicket the Ewok is now a hot commodity.
The new LEGO Star Wars Wicket the Ewok (75430) set is already on backorder after having just been released on August 1. It was released alongside seven other awesome new Star Wars sets, and is clearly the most popular of the bunch. It makes some sense that this is the one on backorder, since this is the first we've seen of a buildable Ewok figure like this, compared to the new AT-ST that has seen a handful of iteration over the decades.
LEGO Wicket the Ewok Is Already on Backorder
You can still order the Wicket set, and LEGO's website is saying it will ship in 60 days. At a list price of $129.99, it isn't the most affordable, but for a kit of over 1,000 pieces it isn't terrible. Either way, for a fun and unique Star Wars set like this, I'd say it's worth the wait. It's not every day we see something new come out of the LEGO Star Wars line, so this is one I definitely have my eye one.
It's 1,010 pieces and stands over 9in. tall, so I can see this taking upwards of two or three hours to build. So turn on Return of the Jedi, grab a snack, and get to building. I'm the type of person to build big sets like this in one sitting, and throwing on Wicket's first appearance in the galaxy far, far away is the perfect way to celebrate the little guy. The build looks to be fairly detailed, with movable arms and facial features. His cloak and fur look spot-on compared to his onscreen counterpart, and the arrowhead at the tip of the spear is a nice touch. You also get a Wicket minifigure and information plaque synonymous with countless other LEGO Star Wars sets.
More New LEGO Star Wars Sets
Wicket the Ewok isn't the only new LEGO Star Wars set that came out at the beginning of August. I mentioned earlier the AT-ST Walker, and this modern version is the biggest and most detailed one we've had to date. Additionally, many of the smaller sets come with great recreations of Clone Wars-era characters like Asajj Ventress and Obi-Wan Kenobi in his Clone Wars armor, another personal favorite of mine.
