LEGO Recreates Obi-Wan Kenobi vs. Darth Vader with Odd $50 Set
Obi-Wan Kenobi has been an absolutely fantastic series so far, and it's awesome to see new stories for these characters. In Episode 3, we saw a fearful Obi-Wan come face to face with what Anakin has become. This heartbreaking moment hit deep, and LEGO is trying to recapture some of its magic with a very odd set. The Obi-Wan Kenobi vs. Darth Vader set is here with 408 pieces and will include four mini-figures. Tala Durith and NED-8, get their collectible debut as they witness the fall of Obi-Wan Kenobi. The set is merely a single base with some added fire effect with a launching ability to create more drama. Nothing is really special about this set, but it will set collectors back $50 for four new Star Wars mini-figures and a gray platform. Mystery Star Wars Obi-Wan Kenobi Packs would have been better and would allow fans to rebuild this set for 1/10 the price. Pre-orders for the LEGO sets are live here, and it is expected to ship in August 2022.
