Back in April , there were rumors of a new LEGO Star Wars Death Star set coming im 2016 and it looks like it may be coming true. Brickset has a listing for a new Ultimate Collector Series Death Star with set number 75159. The 10188 version is still available in America but has been recently retired in Europe and has been listed as “Retiring Soon” on Shop@Home. I’ll have more information as they come.
Update: Apparently, Just2Good posted this info on Eurobricks yesterday but I didn’t see on there as I only saw on Brickset this morning.

Maybe there’s a new Death Star or something in the new movie and it will have the new characters and stuff. Like Poe in his resistance jacket.
Yeah, this is going to be the new Death Star in The Force Awakens
thats not a death star. spoiler warning
its the star killer base and its hollowed out plantet
I know, but I figured because it had the huge laser, it could be classified as a “Death Star”, but now that I think about it, they would’ve called the set “Starkiller Base” :/
Can we chill with the fucking spoilers?
It’s not a spoiler at all, it’s been well-known for a while that Starkiller base (aka Death Star III) will be able to take out entire star systems.
Well known by who fuck face? You do not equal me.
Because all I’ve seen is the 3 minute comic con video. Does not make it known to me.
Are you fucking retarded? If you don’t want to be “spoiled” then don’t click on the link to a page that has these “spoilers”.
Chill with the language.
Bad language not ok.
Ruining movies for other people is ok.
Aaaaaaand this is my last day reading this blog. Seeya.
If the ‘Star Killer Base’ was ruined for you then i congratulate you on somehow managing to avoid the trailers, posters and all promotional material for the film. Given they have heavily advertised the inclusion of the Star Killer Base and its role as a more superior version of the Death Star.
If you feel the movie was ruined by the reveal that they’ll have something shown on the poster, then you should be angry at the movie poster or the trailer or the promotional material – not this blog or someone who comments on it.
I was able to stay away from everything short of a couple of tidbits. Most of which weren’t true or didn’t play much of a significant thing in the movie. I chock that up to not having regular TV and avoiding places with obvious news stories regarding the movie.
It’s not difficult to add something about possible spoilers at the beginning of a comment if you’re discussing something that reveals plot details to a major movie like this.
True, though main post didn’t list it and ofcourse given its a new set listing named ‘Death Star’ that happens to be released in a reasonably amount of time after the release of The Force Awakens and close to the release of ‘Rogue One’ most notable for being about the Death Star (as announced when the title was unveiled and in the synopsis) – chances are people would speculate and unfortunately that means spoilers.
Some people are inconsiderate with spoilers and that’s unfortunate, though in the case here i feel because it was publicly announced to an extent that somewhat justifies the reasoning behind them not announcing spoilers and why this blog found the comment acceptable.
If they had stated a spoiler heavy moment from the film then that may have changed, however using the term ‘Star Killer Base’ and showing the image on the poster didn’t really amount to anything in the actual film. It was never referred to on screen as the ‘Star Killer Base’ so not seeing as much in terms of spoilers.
So in summary;
Star Killer Base; Never called that on-screen, publicly shown on poster, publicly advertised on the website
Death Star in Rogue One; Publicly advertised, first synopsis stated it would be about the Death Star
So the only spoilers are aspects spoken about are all stuff revealed publicly well before the films release. So while i admittedly hate people being spoiled for the sake of ruining something for them, in this case i can understand why they didn’t add spoilers to their comments.
Need. More. Info.
I think this might be the original Death Star. Considering Rogue One is supposedly about the theft of the plans I think it’s great synergy to have a new Death Star.
I watch the Star Wars Force Awaken the movie at Yesterday’s after the New Year.
Because its tagged “Empire” I think it will be a Deathstar 1 done in similar fasion to the ucs deathstar 2
I don’t think they would because that would literally be a big Lego ball with a dent in it where the death star II had that incomplete part on in.
look at these pictures
