    The latest LEGO Star Wars set to be reaveled, LEGO 75396 Desert Skiff and Sarlacc Pit, is a bit more expensive than previous iterations of this classic Original Trilogy vehicle, and with good reason.
    In addition to the skiff, Luke, Han, Chewie, Lando and Boba Fett (and a bonus Nien Nunb), there's also a fleshed-out brick-built Sarlacc; something we haven't seen before at this scale. There have been smaller, perfuctory Sarlaccs in the past, but finally, this set comes with a Sarlacc that's more than just an afterthought.
    For anyone hoping to put the new set on display as part of a larger LEGO Star Wars collection, the new Sarlacc makes this set noteworthy even after twenty years of LEGO Desert Skiffs.

    The fact that this set is coming out already discounted at 63€ down from 80€ indicates even retailers know the full price is too high...I expect amazon to sell it for 20-30% off not even after a month.

    I have the desert skiff from 2017, and this one looks very similar. Even the sarlacc has a lot of overlap, this one just has a lot more tan slopes "framing" it. And frankly, I don't think that tan "frame" adds any play value, and very little display value. The only real big difference is the price. The 2017 version was $30, this one is $80. Yes I know inflation is a thing, but inflation hasn't been THAT bad. It's still close to double the price for essentially some tan bits around the sarlacc beak. More power to you if you like this, but I'm happy with my old version.

    The new Luke actually uses a new torso and leg printing. I think a new design of Skiff Luke was LONG overdue. Besides the face, they also gave Skiff Han a new torso if you couldn't tell.

    Personally, I think the bulky Sarlacc adds no more play value from the last one. It just adds pointless “value” to the set that doubled the price. It doesn’t even look better.

    Good video, I will add some transparent 2x2 round bricks so the desert skiff is a bit higher compared to the sarlacc pit. Also I find 80 bucks a bit too much for this set so I’ll buy it at a discount at some point.

    $80 is just ridiculous! Severely overpriced! The only big highlight is easily Nien Nunb. The problem is everyone is saying it’s ridiculously overpriced, yet there will still be a bunch of people who will pay full price for this.

    Price per piece is not perfect, but 80 dollars for 558 pieces is egregious. Diluting the issue of price to something "subjective" is not a responsible take. You have become part of Lego's overpricing trend, congratulations.

    08:20 they could’ve recoloured Boba’s Jet Pack to reflect his ROTJ look more. Not asking for a dual mould or anything but a yellow would’ve been good. And he really should’ve had a cape!

    If you mentioned pricing injustice in your prior lord of the rings video, wouldn't these two sets be even worse? Having expensive sets that feel worth is is simply gatekeeping, where providing an order of magnitude less value for next level higher price points is something the government regulators would be concerned with in other industries.
