LEGO Star Wars set 75159 “Death Star” depicts the Death Star as an open scene based model from the saga. Released in 2016, it belongs to the Star Wars theme, under Ultimate Collector Series, and contains 4024 pieces.

The model presents the Imperial battle station as a multi area interior display rather than a closed outer shell. Within the Star Wars theme, it serves as a large location based set, combining several recognizable Death Star situations in one build.

The build uses 4024 pieces and is arranged around accessible sections for figures and scene setting. Its minifigure selection is a major part of the set, with 23 minifigures listed. Named characters include Chewbacca, Luke Skywalker in a white robe, C-3PO, Darth Vader, the Death Star Droid, Emperor Palpatine, Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin, Astromech Droid R3-M3, an Imperial Gunner, a Royal Guard and Princess Leia in a white robe. The open rooms and levels support confrontations, Imperial stations and internal passages without tying the model to only one moment.

This set is aimed at LEGO Star Wars collectors and builders looking for a large display and play environment. It has enough presence for exhibition, while the open layout keeps the minifigures usable. Among Star Wars sets, it stands out for the concentration of named characters and for bringing multiple Death Star scenes into a single model.
