Help even younger children develop their building skills with Instructions PLUS, available in the free LEGO® Life app, which allow them to zoom in on, rotate and visualize the construction model while they build. LEGO® Star Wars™ sets are brilliant for kids (and adult fans) to recreate iconic scenes from the Star Wars saga, make up their own unique stories or build and display the cool construction toys.After the fall of the Empire and the rise of the New Republic, and following the Empire's Great Purge of the Mandalorians, some Mandalorians went into hiding. One such group was called "the Tribe," who hid in a covert on the planet Nevarro. However, the Tribe were forced to relocate after revealing themselves to protect one of their own. The Tribe was eventually wiped out by an Imperial remnant, but some of its members survived. At a first glance, you could be forgiven for thinking these four folks are just brightly-coloured doppelgängers of Boba Fett. After all, they wear the same style of armour with the same distinct helmet shape (and if you read my review of 75266, you might be starting to see a pattern of recycled and recoloured designs). These are in fact Mandalorians, members of a warrior culture from the planet Mandalore, fierce combatants with a creed of honour, strength and family binding them all. One doesn’t have to be from the same planet or species to become a Mandalorian, as is clear with the Disney+ show’s protagonist, but likewise wearing the armour doesn’t automatically make you one either (it is implied Boba Fett and his father Jango simply stole the armour rather than earning it).

In recent years, the Mandalorians have become almost as integral to the Star Wars universe as the Jedi and Sith. The clash between their warrior past and peaceful present is the crux of much of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, shadowy alliances with the Empire and civil wars are present in Star Wars: Rebels, and now we have The Mandalorian, on which this set is based, which explores the mentality of a single mercenary from this culture. Without saying too much, it’s a wonderful show, a tonal departure from much of Disney’s other Star Wars content but a welcome one, and it gives us a much closer look at how the Mandalorians have adapted to life after the fall of the Empire.

Who are they?

Fast to build – and to rebuild after battles – the 102-piece Star Wars™ Mandalorian construction toy playset is a great-value gift for boys and girls aged 6+ on their birthday, at Christmas or for a special surprise. The Mandalorians were a clan-based cultural group that was composed of members from multiple species all bound by a common culture, creed, and code. They originated on the planet Mandalore in the galaxy's Outer Rim Territories and had a particularly important role in galactic history as legendary warriors against the Jedi. From their homeworld, Mandalorians had flourished across Mandalorian Space and the galaxy at large, colonizing worlds such as Kalevala, Krownest, and Concord Dawn.
