The LEGO® Star Wars™ August 2025 wave just got a lot more interesting. After months of speculation, was it a UT-AT, a Class Assault Tank, or something else entirely? LEGO® finally pulled back the curtain on 75413 Republic Juggernaut. Yes, it’s the HAVw A6 Juggernaut, better known to fans as the clone turbo tank. And while the 813-piece build might feel a tad undersized for its €149.99 price tag, the minifigure lineup is anything but disappointing.
A Closer Look at the Build
The Republic Juggernaut is a light and dark grey beast, with maroon accents that match the new Galactic Marine minifigures. The front of the tank is six studs wide, featuring a stickered 2x6 tile to recreate the iconic red markings. Above it, trans-light blue 1x4 and 1x2 tiles form the windows, adding a touch of color to the otherwise monochrome vehicle.
The most impressive detail? Ten brick-built wheels, each with tilting suspension for realistic movement. No pre-molded wheel elements here, just pure LEGO® engineering. Inside, you’ll find two cockpits: one for driving, one for rear support, plus a weapons rack and seating for all eight minifigures. The command post section even lifts off for extra play value.
But let’s be honest, the real star here isn’t the tank. It’s the minifigures.
The Minifigures: Why Army Builders Will Rejoice
This set is a goldmine for collectors. Here’s what you get:
- Ki-Adi-Mundi: The Jedi Council member comes with his signature headpiece and a trans-blue lightsaber.
- Commander Bacara: Making his first-ever LEGO® appearance, Bacara leads the Galactic Marines with a unique helmet and torso print, plus a blaster.
- Three Galactic Marines: Debuting in physical form, these clones sport maroon and white helmets, matching their torso and leg prints.
- Three Battle Droids: Standard tan droids with black blasters, because no Star Wars™ set is complete without them.
For army builders, this is a dream. The Galactic Marines alone make this set worth considering, especially if you’ve been waiting for their official LEGO® debut.
Price, Scale, and the Big Question: Is It Worth It?
At €149.99 ($159.99 / £139.99 / 1,150 DKK / 1,700 SEK / 680 PLN / 780 BRL / 240 AUD), the Republic Juggernaut isn’t cheap. The piece count is modest for the price, and the scale might feel off compared to other LEGO® Star Wars™ vehicles. But if exclusive minifigures are your priority, this set delivers.
What’s missing? Some fans might wish for a larger, more detailed build or additional play features to justify the cost. Others will argue that the minifigures alone make it a must-buy.
Final Thoughts: Should You Buy It?
If you’re a Star Wars™ fan, a minifigure collector, or just love unique LEGO® builds, the 75413 Republic Juggernaut is a tempting pick. The Galactic Marines and Commander Bacara are long-overdue additions, and the brick-built wheels add a nice touch of authenticity.
But if you’re expecting a massive, display-worthy tank, you might leave slightly underwhelmed. The August 1, 2025 release is just around the corner, so, will you be adding this to your collection?
What do you think? Does the minifigure lineup make up for the price and scale? Or is there something else LEGO® could have included to sweeten the deal? Let’s hear your thoughts.
