Take a look at every iconic scene from the original cinematic saga that’s been recreated in brick-built form in LEGO Star Wars 75419 Death Star.
LEGO Star Wars 75419 Death Star was finally officially revealed this week, with the colossal Ultimate Collector Series model comprised of an impressive 9,023 pieces. The Imperial super weapon will be launching on October 1, 2025 for Insiders (everyone else gets a shot from October 4) and includes 38 minifigures, plus its own dedicated GWP.
Packed with details, 75419 Death Star features multiple iconic scenes from A New Hope and Return of the Jedi, as well as a selection of fun Easter eggs for fans to discover. From the crushing trash compactor to Princess Leia’s holding cell in the detention block, here’s every moment from the original movies that the LEGO Star Wars set recreates in brick-built form.
The Emperor’s Throne Room
Located at the top right of 75419 Death Star is the Emperor’s Throne Room, as seen in Episode VI. Similar to the now retired 75352 Emperor’s Throne Room Diorama, this slightly-downscaled section of the LEGO Star Wars set uses the same circular window element introduced in the previous model, a couple of display consoles, a rotating throne and a few simple play features.
SB-920 laser cannon
Right next to the Emperor’s Throne Room is a secret room that contains an SB-920 laser cannon. These weapons could be spotted in A New Hope, blasting away at the attacking Rebel craft during the Battle of Yavin. An exterior panel on the model can be flipped open to allow full access to this section of the build and there’s even room for a couple of minifigures inside.

Conference room
Another scene from A New Hope that has been recreated in the LEGO Star Wars UCS set is the conference room on the far right of the upper third floor. A round table has been included, along with eight chairs, so there’s room to place Grand Moff Tarkin and other scheming Imperial minifigures inside, although it can be a bit of a squeeze.

Tractor beam control unit
Below Luke and Leia’s chasm swing can be found Tractor Beam 12 on the second floor, an area of the battle station accessed by Obi-Wan Kenobi to allow the heroes to make their escape. The controls for the Death Star’s tractor beam can be reached via a unit surrounded by a narrow ledge, although there’s sadly no functionalty to this part of the set.
Darth Vader’s meditation chamber
A surprise addition to
Stormtrooper chase
In the original version of A New Hope, Han Solo and Chewbacca chased after a squad of fleeing Stormtroopers during the Rebels’ escape from the Death Star. That scene was then updated in the Special Edition of Episode IV with a whole hangar bay full of Stormtroopers. The initial corridor section of that scene is included on the lower left-hand side of
Docking control room 327
Also on the far right of the first floor of the LEGO Star Wars build is a control room that overlooks docking bay 327. This area was infiltrated in A New Hope by Luke Skywalker and Han Solo disguised as Stormtroopers, with
Trash compactor
Multiple versions of the Imperial battle station’s crushing waste disposal room have been recreated as LEGO Star Wars sets, most recently in 75339 Death Star Trash Compactor Diorama in 2022.
Lightsaber duel
Outside the trash compactor is a doorway leading to docking bay 327 and an open area with studs for placing two minifigures. This section of
Docking bay 327
The final section of
Docking bay 327 was where the Millennium Falcon was captured after being drawn into the station by the Death Star’s tractor beam, but this area of the LEGO Star Wars set can also be used to replicate the arrival of the Emperor in Return of the Jedi.
