The self-contained, sensor-studded Lego Smart Bricks I saw in person a few weeks ago looked like a Star Wars Lego fan’s dream. Lego hasn’t even released those sets yet, but it’s just announced more are coming this year.
A handful of new brick sets that work with the smart brick-focused Smart Play system were announced in Germany today at the Nuremburg Toy Fair, and like the first few sets revealed in Las Vegas at CES, they’re all based on the classic Star Wars trilogy.

There’s a Millennium Falcon set, a Landspeeder set, a Mos Eisley Cantina set, a Yoda training set on Dagobah, and an AT-ST Endor set. The newly announced sets, ranging from $40 to $100, have compatible Smart Tags and Smart Minifigures but don’t come with the necessary Smart Bricks, which charge wirelessly and activate all the sounds and lights when in close proximity.
To get those bricks, you still need to buy one of the other sets. Or, wait for Lego to sell those Smart Bricks separately.
All of these sets are coming March 1, all at the same time. It’s a lot of interconnected, motion-enabled Star Wars stuff all at once, and I’m extremely curious how they’ll all work together. That’s only about a month away now, I just realized, so hang tight and save up your Lego money.
