The Star Wars logo is instantly recognizable and an iconic image, but does that translate when put into Lego form?

Lego released the 700-piece set on May 1, 2025, ahead of Star Wars Day, which falls on May 4. We got our hands on it and put it to the test to see if it's worth the credits and if it would make a fine addition to your... Collection. We've built a lot of Lego Star Wars sets over the years and we found that there's a lot to like about this set.

It's not a challenging build, as there aren't any intricate or tricky building techniques required, so it's suitable for those without much building experience, as well as collectors. It's unquestionably a great display piece and would be a welcome addition to any shelf or surface.

We can be a little critical of this set as it doesn't come with minifigures and some building sequences are a little repetitive, but overall, it's enjoyable and for the price, it's worthwhile. You don't need to watch the Star Wars movies to enjoy this set, but does sit among the best Lego Star Wars sets? It would be among the best Lego Star Wars deals when on offer, given its low starting price.

Lego Brick Built Star Wars Logo review: Build

  • Sturdy final build
  • Not overly challenging
  • A little fiddly in places but satisfying on completion

Starting with the box and its contents. The box stands out thanks to a black background, helping the yellow of the set catch the eye. The back features a picture of the final build and a snippet of the movie poster from "A New Hope". It also has two thumb tabs, which you can press down on to break open the box, without ruining it. Inside, you'll find two easy-to-follow instruction booklets and six bags of Lego pieces, the first five of which feature a smaller bag containing little pieces like single studs.

As you go through the build, you'll find that in the early stage of building the word "Star" and later on, the word "Wars", parts can feel flimsy and some pieces can break off when attaching other pieces to the set. This is only a minor inconvenience, though, as it's easy to reattach pieces and if you get lost, you can refer back to the instruction manuals and clearly see which part needs to go where, as they're easy to follow.

Once you've passed the early stages, though, there's no such issue and the final build feels very sturdy. Along the way to the final build, there weren't any challenging or unique building techniques needed, and although some parts were a bit fiddly, it was quite a straightforward and enjoyable process. That makes it a suitable set for those without much building experience, as well as collectors looking for something unique.

Within the 700 pieces this set contains, there aren't many unusual pieces that need fitting to complete the set. In some instances, separate parts need to be built and then attached to the main piece, but this is okay as most, if not every time, you could see exactly what that part was adding to the set. The overall look of the final build is very satisfying to look at and very accurately resembles the actual Star Wars logo.

  • Instantly recognizable and great display piece
  • No minifigures but a small compartment for spare pieces
  • Contrast of yellow and black pieces help it stand out

Of course, this was never going to be a set that would blow you away with fine details or surprising extras, but that doesn't stop it from looking great. The contrast of the yellow bricks with the black in between the lettering really helps the set pop off the shelf and it's big enough to catch your eye when on display, but not so big that it's the centerpiece of the room, or that it needs its own space to be shown off.

The entirety of the outside of the lettering is comprised of Lego bricks with a smooth outer, meaning that it isn't uncomfortable to touch, hold or pick up. It also looks a lot nicer like that and less blocky. As you can see from the pictures and video above, that smoothness gives it a great likeness to the real logo and while it does look like a Lego version of it, it still bears a striking resemblance.

The set is designed so that you build the two words individually and then attach them at the end, as opposed to building them all as one giant block. This makes building it easier and you can see the final look start to take shape earlier in the build.

One particularly neat part of the build is that if you lift the smooth pieces on the top of the "T", you'll find a small compartment that can store spare pieces. We had several at the end of the build and it's the perfect size to house them. However, as much as we like this set and had a great time building it, we do have some criticisms of it. You don't get any minifigures with this set. While we might sound a little spoiled by saying that, the Lego Marvel Logo set comes with five minifigures, all Avengers, which means this set comes up a little short in comparison.

Lego Brick Built Star Wars Logo review: Verdict

To summarize, this is a set that's well-worth getting and building. At only $60 in price, and we've already seen small discounts on it on sites like Amazon, it's pretty good value.

It comes with 700 pieces, is enjoyable to build without being too challenging and it really stands out when put on a shelf, without taking up too much room. It's sturdy when completed and is completely unique to any other Lego Star Wars set, too.

Where this set is marked down is in its lack of minifigures and some of the build can seem a little repetitive. However, this is still a great display piece and looks cool when displayed solo, or would bring a bit of flare to a Lego Star Wars collection.

Alternative Sets

If this set interests you, but isn't quite right, or you want something similar, the obvious comparison and alternative is the Lego Marvel Logo set. This set is also just a logo. It's a similar size, has more pieces and comes with five minifigures, which are all Avengers. You can argue that it doesn't quite stand out as much due to the color scheme, but it does cost considerably more. We also gave it four stars in our review.

If you want something Lego Star Wars-specific, then we would recommend the Acclamator-Class Assault Ship. It's cheaper, comes with lots of detail and is a ship placed on a display stand. No, it doesn't have the same piece count, but then again, it does come in under $50.
