Earlier this week, the LEGO Group announced an exciting LEGO Star Wars livestream for the 15th of April 2026, during which the Danes were going to reveal a brand-new set alongside some Star Wars-themed prizes. But just a few days later, this reveal has already been spoiled by LEGO themselves as they’ve already shown the first picture of 75442 UCS The Mandalorian’s N-1 Starfighter – the set that will be officially unveiled during the livestream next week.
75442 is our first Ultimate Collector Series model of 2026 and the marquee release for this year’s Star Wars Day celebrations, scheduled for release on the 1st of May 2026. The 18+ set will retail for $239.99 / €239.99 / £199.99 and includes a total of 1,809 pieces to recreate Din Djarin’s modified N-1 Starfighter, which features prominently in the third season of The Mandalorian.
Din’s second major ship, after the original Razor Crest, has appeared in multiple forms, having already seen the starfighter as a playset (75325), a 4+ model (75410) and a Microfighter (75363). But next month we’ll see the biggest and most detailed iteration of the N-1 Starfighter yet, and it’s perfect timing ahead of the blockbuster release of The Mandalorian & Grogu.
Just like we see in the Mandalorian Disney+ series, the front and main body of the brand-new LEGO N-1 Starfighter is shaped like a wide triangle, transitioning into a very long, thin tail. The wings of the N-1 are located right at the front, drastically expanding the width of the Starfighter. These sections are some of the most detailed, as each wing includes a J-type engine of the agile craft, which in the Disney+ series are relatively exposed, giving away plenty of inner workings and details.
Along with the relatively exposed engines, most of the yellow colouring of the original Naboo Starfighter has also been stripped from Mando’s Starfighter. Therefore, the 1,809-piece build leans heavily into shades of grey while also including some elements of drum-lacquered metallic silver to recreate the unpainted Beskar/vacuum-metalised finish. Some hints of yellow can still be found dotted around the ship; however, just like we see in the 2022 play-scale version of 75325 The Mandalorian’s N-1 Starfighter.
The cockpit section is another important feature of the build, including both the actual cockpit section for Din Djarin, along with the smaller passenger space for Grogu. A super elongated windshield piece looks to be utilised for the main cockpit, along with a smaller bubble windshield element behind. Both of these sections can be removed to access the usual details seen in the previous LEGO Star Wars cockpit builds.
A few spring-loaded stud shooters, along with a cargo compartment, are also likely to feature in 75442 UCS The Mandalorian N-1 Starfighter once it releases on the 1st of May 2026. And of course, the latest UCS model can’t be complete without LEGO Minifigures. Only two are included in 75442, which are unsurprisingly Grogu using the new mould introduced for the character in the other May 2026 sets and the Mandalorian himself decked out in beskar armour, along with his Darksaber accessory.
