One of the most sought after and requested LEGO Star Wars sets is the 2003 Cloud City (set #10123), which achieves a huge premium on the secondary market. Some 15 years later, you can add a new version of this set to your collection with LEGO Star Wars Betrayal at Cloud City (set #75222) available for VIP’s on Thursday 13th September, and all on Monday 1st October 2018 (anyone can sign up to be a VIP). This 2,812 piece set features 18 minifigures and 2 droids and expands on the original release with lots of new features.
Incidentally, this set does not appear to be part of the Ultimate Collectors Series (UCS), instead the press release states it is part of the LEGO Star Wars Master Builder Series (MBS). Does this new series replace the UCS or supplement it? We’ve asked and we’ll let you know!
