Overview
- Preorders begin today for three Star Wars Smart Play sets ahead of a March 1, 2026 retail launch.
- Launch lineup and pricing: Darth Vader’s TIE Fighter at €69.99 (one Smart Brick), Luke’s Red Five X‑Wing at €89.99 (one), and Throne Room Duel & A‑Wing at €159.99 (two).
- The Smart Brick is available only within these sets at launch and is not listed as a standalone accessory.
- Lego frames Smart Play as a complementary layer to traditional building, while Fairplay and some academics warn the effects could undercut imagination‑driven play.
- Patent applications and FCC filings point to multi‑radio connectivity, three‑axis magnetic tracking, and inductive charging with Li‑ion power, though consumer features may differ from the filings.
