Is That Iconic Leia Making a Comeback? Jabba’s Sail Barge Rumored for October Release as Large LEGO® Star Wars Set [Speculation]

An social media account that releases unofficial information about new LEGO® brick products has posted the latest information about Jabba’s Sail Barge. However, at this point, it’s merely speculation and not confirmed information until an official announcement is made.

Large LEGO® Star Wars sets are released every October

In recent years, LEGO® brick products (sets) for adults have been actively introduced and are spreading as an adult hobby. In LEGO® Star Wars, large collector’s spaceships sets with a high number of parts, known as the “Ultimate Collector Series (UCS)”, have long been released for adult collectors.

In 2024, the TIE Interceptor (75382) was released in May to coincide with the “LEGO® Star Wars Day” event, but since 2022, it has become customary for UCS sets to be released in early October as well.

In 2022, the Razor Crest (75331) from “The Mandalorian”, which can be considered the current mainstream of Star Wars, was released. In 2023, it was the Venator-class Republic Attack Cruiser (75367). In 2021, although it was released in November, the AT-AT(TM) (75313) was launched.

Is 2024 the Year of Jabba’s Sail Barge?

Based on past trends, there’s a high possibility that a LEGO® Star Wars UCS set will be released in October 2024. According to information circulating on overseas social media, this year’s most likely candidate is the “Jabba’s Sail Barge (75397),” measuring approximately 80 cm in length.

This vessel is the Asian-inspired ship that Jabba rode in when Luke and Han Solo were taken to the Tatooine desert for execution in the third movie of the series, “Episode 6: Return of the Jedi,” released in 1983.

Many Characters Expected to be Included

This scene features many characters besides Luke and Han Solo, including Jabba the Hutt, Jabba’s henchmen, and Leia. According to unofficial information, the UCS version of the Sail Barge is expected to include more than 10 characters listed below.

Leia’s Design

In this scene, Leia appears wearing a chain collar and a bikini-like costume. The 2013 LEGO® Star Wars playset “Jabba’s Sail Barge,” recommended for ages 9 and up, included a minifigure of Leia in this outfit.

However, considering current social trends, if a Leia minifigure is included in the new Jabba’s Sail Barge set, it’s possible that the revealing costume from the movie may not be adopted. Nevertheless, on social media, the prevailing view is that the minifigure will likely feature the same design as in the film. Indeed, designing a different outfit for Leia’s minifigure in this scene might feel out of place.

Many people would likely want to display “Jabba’s Sail Barge” as room decor, with its stylish Asian-inspired design that sets it apart from other metallic Star Wars spaceships.

It’s expected to be released on October 3, 2024, but all predictions, including whether it will be released at all, are unconfirmed at this point. We’ll provide updates as soon as new information becomes available.
