Lots of elements from theStar Warsuniverse have been turned into Lego sets and Minifigures, and in turn, lots of those sets and Minifigures have been a part ofLegoStar Wars video games. However, despite the series' popularity, Star Wars Jedi hasn’t been a part of those crossovers. That may well be about to change as a fresh Lego rumor claims a Cal Kestis Minifigure will be included in an upcoming Death Star Lego set.
Daily Star Wars Games shared the rumor on social media after it was initially reported ina thread on the Legoleak subreddit. The original post has been deleted, but other leakers have shared the same information since. Apparently, the Death Star set will be released this summer and include a Darth Vader Minifigure, along with a couple of Storm Troopers and other characters you’d typically find on the iconic structure. However, the biggest takeaway is Kestis potentially being included.
The replies indicate that while most Star Wars Lego fans are happy to be getting a Kestis Minifigure, others are a little confused as to why it will make its debut as part of a Death Star set. One reason might be 2024 being Lego Star Wars 25th anniversary, and that the set will celebrate all things Star Wars, not just the Death Star withJedi Survivor’s protagonist thrown in there for no reason.
If so, it might well be a case of lots more things being included in this set from throughout Star Wars history, or that Kestis is included in a different set releasing at the same time and someone has gotten their wires crossed. If so, that will likely please a few fans who have been clamoring for a Mantis set in the replies. Kestis making his Lego debut as part of a set based on the ship he flies around the galaxy makes a lot more sense than putting him in a Death Star set, and it also means you can include Greez, Merrin, and BD-1 Minifigures too.
Suffice to say, one way or another, it seems very likely we’ll be getting some new Lego Star Wars sets this year and that a Kestis Minifigure will be included in one or more of them. No need to create your own in Lego Ideas and hope enough people like it for Lego to consider the set for mass production.Subnautica and No Man’s Sky might be getting that treatment in the futureafter both games' fan-submitted ideas reached the threshold needed for Lego to officially consider them.
