About this deal

Special thanks to the LEGO Group for providing this set for review 75327 Luke Skywalker (Red Five) Helmet Set Details The details are spot-on, and despite some minor niggles like the fidgety chin strap, this is by far one of my favourite LEGO Star Wars helmets yet, as it looks great displayed on its own, or with the other helmets in the collection. The orange visor is probably the least accurate, as the dip in the middle feels too deep, but I learned from the designers that this was a particularly challenging part of the model, as they needed to use trans-orange elements, that were as clear as possible, and many iterations led to this one. It might be hard to make out, but there is also grey padding on each side of the inside of the helmet, which was a really nice touch. Overall, it’s an enjoyable build but one that feels incredibly short, with the whole thing coming together with relative ease and in a relatively short amount of time. It doesn’t feel quite as involved as those that have come before and despite the decent final model, unlike Luke, this set’s build narrowly misses the target. — Characters —

If you’re a Star Wars fan, and looking for a great display piece that isn’t a ship, or large UCS model, I can highly recommend this set, especially if you have the other Helmets from the collection. Among these is the UCS Republic Gunship, and if previous UCS sets are anything to go by, this set could jump up in price when it hits the aftermarket. So if you're wanting to add the Gunship to your collection, now's the time to do so. When looking at the piece count, 75327 Luke Skywalker (Red Five) Helmet is in-keeping with previous models and feels fairly priced. However, the build feels more comparable with the considerably cheaper 75305 Scout Trooper Helmet, which offered an equally short construction experience.I didn’t really like the chin strap, and the microphone/communicator, as they’re quite flimsy, and I found them constantly dislodging themselves while I was handling the helmet. I actually think the helmet looks better without them. The bright colours, and contrasty pops of red, yellow and white detail look great against the mostly white helmet, and like others in the collection, the helmet is perched on a sturdy stand. It also looks like the Ahsoka sets that were released earlier this month may not hang around for long as they are planned to leave at the end of 2024.

Show your respect for a fearless 501st Legion Clone Commander with the build-and-display Captain Rex Helmet (75349) model, straight out of Star Wars: The Clone Wars™ and into your hands. Capture the smooth metallic sheen of beskar armor as you build a stunning LEGO recreation of the Mandalorian’s™ helmet (75328), and pair it with a buildable Dark Trooper Helmet (75343) as seen in Star Wars: The Mandalorian™ Season 2. Keepability [5]– With a vastly expanding collection, these are sure to be collector’s items and will maintain their value This set included clear instructions so you can relax and enjoy the construction of this Red Five Star Wars decoration. And when you’re ready for another building mission, look out for the other new LEGO Star Wars helmets.

Recreate Luke Skywalker's iconic headwear from A New Hope with this Lego Star Wars Luke Skywalker (Red Five) Helmet.

In this article, we provide the retirement dates of all LEGO Star Wars sets currently on sale, including those leaving shelves in just a few months time. 2023 The bright colours, and the fact that it’s a Rebel helmet also add to the uniqueness, and I was very impressed by how well the LEGO designers translated one of the most iconic helmets in Star Wars, and also made it so much fun to build. Now that we have Rebel helmets, I can’t wait to see more of these – maybe we’ll get those aerodynamic Rebel Helmets soon! Whether you’re a valiant rebel fighter or a temptingly powerful Sith Lord, there’s no better way to showcase your loyalty – or demonstrate your LEGO building prowess – than with our range of beautifully crafted LEGO® Star Wars™ Helmets.

If this set was priced slightly cheaper, it would feel like better value for money. Whether that will be an issue comes down to what you place more importance on when purchasing a set: if it’s the final model then this will prove to be a decent buy. If it’s the build, you might want to look at other, more involved helmets before this one. — Pictures — This is LEGO’s first Rebel and open-face helmet, as previous inclusions have mostly been Imperial-flavoured, but it instantly makes a huge impact when you see it. As the first attempt at an open-faced helmet within the Star Wars universe, 75327 Luke Skywalker (Red Five) Helmet is a success. It looks pretty accurate, is full of authentic detailing and captures the unmistakable look of the X-wing pilot’s headgear very well. Designing it to resemble a helmet on a plinth rather than a hybrid between a full head and helmet like the Batman cowls was a smart move that’s paid off. Looking ahead to next year, a further 29 sets are currently scheduled to retire. This includes the long-running UCS Millennium Falcon, the UCS Luke's Landspeeder, and the Mos Eisley Cantina It’s unmistakably Luke’s helmet, and any Star Wars fan should be proud to have this on display. Other Lego sets to considerI’d love to know what you think of the new Luke Skywalker Red Five Helmet, and what other Rebel helmets you’d like to see Over a third of the Star Wars sets currently available will be retiring this year, with a total of 27 leaving shelves. Feel the power of your creative Force as you build the Star Wars collectible Luke Skywalker Red Five Helmet (75327), LEGO set for adults. This buildable model of Luke’s iconic pilot headgear is the first-ever hero helmet or open helmet in the LEGO Star Wars Helmet Collection.

There is a lovely foreword and introduction by LEGO Star Wars Creative Director, Jens Kronvold Frederiksen, and the iconic shot of the X-Wings on the Death Star trench run. When I first saw the helmet, and it being an open helmet, I was quite excited as I was hoping it would fit the Wooden LEGO Originals minifigure, but alas, it’s just a tad too large! It would’ve made such a brilliant accessory for it! Other highly rated sets are also leaving, such as the Inquisitor Transport Scythe and Razor Crest. Set # Build your collection - This set is part of a series of collectible LEGO Star Wars build-to-display helmet models, each offering a fun and immersive creative experience At the moment the popular AT-TE walker is due to leave us in the middle of 2024, so that's one to keep a close eye on. Set #Unlike the Batman cowls, Luke’s helmet looks very smart, capturing the iconic details incredibly well. It’s not without its faults, though: the ridge at the top is perhaps a little small compared to its on-screen counterpart and, while a very valiant attempt, the trans-orange goggles don’t quite work. Fans of the LEGO Star Wars Helmet collection are in for a treat in 2022, with three all-new helmets to add to their collection, and in the next few days, I’ll be reviewing them all on the blog! Each diorama depicts action from recognizable Star Wars™ locations, complete with authentic details to bring the display to life. Join Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia and Chewbacca to escape the Death Star’s trash compactor, complete Jedi training alongside Luke and Yoda on Dagobah, or fly through the forests of Endor™ on a speeder bike. Whichever scene you choose to recreate, a rewarding and nostalgic building experience awaits!
