LEGO Star Wars set 75251, Darth Vader's Castle, depicts Darth Vader’s fortress within the Star Wars universe. Released in 2018, it contains 1060 pieces and focuses on a location strongly associated with one of the saga’s central characters.

Darth Vader's Castle stands apart within LEGO Star Wars because it is based on a fixed location rather than a starship or battlefield vehicle. The model presents Darth Vader’s fortress with a dark, vertical profile, placing the build firmly within the Imperial side of the Star Wars licence.

The build uses 1060 pieces and combines an exterior suitable for display with interior areas for character based play. Rebrickable lists 5 figures: Darth Vader, White Skin, 19888 Cape, Green Square on Chest Panel, Royal Guard, Dark Red Hands, 19888 Cape, 3626c Head, Imperial Transport Pilot / Athex, Darth Vader, Bacta Tank Outfit, and Mouse Droid (MSE-6-series Repair Droid), Clip on Top.

The set is aimed at builders who want a Star Wars setting as well as minifigure focused storytelling. Its shape gives it a clear display role, while the included characters support scenes around Darth Vader and his base. In a LEGO Star Wars collection, it complements Imperial vehicles by adding a personal stronghold rather than another craft.
