LEGO Brings the Original ‘Star Wars’ Poster to Life as a Buildable Wall Display
LEGO has built a full-size tribute to one of the most recognizable pieces of movie artwork ever painted. The ‘A New Hope’ Movie Poster, set 75467, recreates the original theatrical poster for ‘Star Wars’ as a three-dimensional wall display. It is a collectible building set aimed at adult superfans ages 18 and up.
The set arrives as part of the franchise’s anniversary celebrations. Next year marks a half-century since ‘A New Hope’, then simply titled ‘Star Wars’, first arrived in cinemas. LEGO is marking the occasion with a wave of display pieces, play sets and collectible extras.
LEGO has now revealed the poster with a price of $299.99, which makes it the centerpiece of the new wave. The set is listed at £269.99 in the UK and €299.99 in Europe. It is also the largest and most expensive set in the collection.
The buildable poster was shown to fan media at a summit in Billund, Denmark. LEGO designer Peter Carmichael was the one who unveiled it.
The set contains 3,209 pieces and measures over 23 inches high, 16 inches wide and 2 inches deep. It is a wall piece rather than a model to display on a shelf. Builders will spend a long time on it.
The artwork it recreates is the famous 1977 painting by Tom Jung. The two-foot-tall design features Luke Skywalker holding his lightsaber above his head, along with Princess Leia, Darth Vader, the Death Star and spacecraft from the original artwork. Those details are what make the poster so recognizable, and LEGO has tried to capture all of them in bricks.
One reviewer compared its footprint to the LEGO Art ‘Sunflowers’ set by Vincent van Gogh, noting that the poster adds roughly 600 more pieces for an extra £100. That comparison shows how it fits alongside LEGO’s other wall-art releases. It also explains why the price sits where it does.
The box also includes a small extra for collectors. It comes with a printed 6×8 tile for ‘A New Hope’, though that tile shows a different poster from the one the large model depicts. The tile gives fans a second piece of poster art to display next to the main build.
The tile is not unique to this set. Three of the 18+ sets in the wave come with printed 6×8 poster tiles. That makes the tiles a recurring collectible across the anniversary lineup.
The poster is not the only new release. LEGO is launching at least seven anniversary sets, ranging from a new helmet and an up-scaled minifigure to play sets and artwork. A more affordable piece of wall art is also part of the lineup. The ‘Darth Vader 2-in-1 Wall Art’ set costs $69.99.
The wave also includes the Mustafar Duel, the Rebel Y-wing Starfighter, Duel on Bespin and a Stormtrooper helmet based on concept art. Four of the play sets each contain a minifigure based on Ralph McQuarrie’s concept art for characters in the original film. Together they give fans options at very different price points.
The release date depends on which source you check. LEGO’s own product page lists the poster as coming soon on January 4, 2027. Forbes also gives January 4.
Several fan-site reports instead say the wave goes on sale on January 1. One announcement said the sets would be released on that date. The difference may come from the poster launching a few days after the rest of the wave. Fans should confirm the exact date on LEGO.com before planning a purchase.
Earlier leaks pointed to a different timeline entirely. Rumors from earlier this year listed the poster for April 2027, with the price and piece count still unknown. The official details now replace those unconfirmed reports.
The set is a bold display piece for collectors who want the original artwork on their wall in brick form. Whether the price feels fair will depend on how much fans value a piece this large and this faithful to the source.
