The Lego Star Wars Death Star (set 75159) is an authentic product if it includes the official Lego branding, part number 75159, and a manufacturing date of 2016 or later. Verify authenticity by checking for the Lego logo on the baseplate, ensuring the instruction manual matches the official 2016 release, and confirming that all pieces are made of standard Lego ABS plastic rather than cheaper alternatives.
The Death Star was released in 2016 by Lego.
Lego set 75159, the Death Star, was officially retired from production in 2019. It is no longer available for purchase new from the Lego Store or official retail channels. Buyers seeking a new copy must rely on third-party sellers who may have remaining stock, though these are often sold at a premium.
There is no official third-party grading service for Lego sets, so condition is assessed visually by the seller and buyer. Inspect the box for structural damage, corner wear, and print quality, as these factors significantly impact value. Examine the plastic pieces for yellowing, cracks, or missing parts, and verify that all instruction booklets and minifigures are present and undamaged.
