The Death Star Trench Run Diorama set checks at one of the lower costs with an MSRP of $59.99
It is based off of the iconic scene from Star Wars: A New Hope. It is when Luke Skywalker is trying to destroy the Death Star and is being chased down by three TIE Fighters.
So no minifigures don’t come with this diorama, but their is a nice round piece that represents R2D2. The mini Tie fighters are OK, but what do expect when you scale it down. Lego did a detailed job of recreating the Death Star from that scene, so kudos for that.
Overall, it would make a nice display piece as the Force is strong with this one.

We now move into a classic scene in Luke’s training with Yoda in the Empire Strikes Back with the Dagobah Jedi Training Diorama. The essence of the swamp is captured in this Lego set including a section of Luke’s X-Wing in the swamp.
This Star Wars set includes a minifigure of Luke Skywalker, Yoda and R2-D2.
The entire Lego diorama includes Yoda’s hut, Luke’s X-Wing, and a backdrop of the swamp where his training occurred on Dagobah wit Yoda.

We head back to Star Wars Episode IV for the more expensive diorama in this April 2022 Star Wars release. This scene features Luke, Leia, and Han Solo in the trash compactor after they freed the Princess. It has 6 minifigures including both C3PO and R2D2.
In all honesty, this diorama is my least favorite, but it will still find a place in my collection.
From the looks of it, the walls can also close in as it did in the iconic movie scene, so that will be interesting to lay around with it. It also features a plaque with a witty quote.
Investment Thoughts For The April 2022 Star Wars Releases
A shift in the force lately at Lego has been detected. They are really putting out more Lego Star Wars sets that are targeted for the older adult fans of Lego.
These dioramas along with the Lego helmet sets really hit the nail on its with reaching this segment of their Lego lovers. They are taking pre-orders now to help gauge the demand of this “new” line of Star Wars Lego sets.
The price per piece is reasonable, but you might want to wait until there are some sales in the upcoming year and wait until they are closer to retirement.
