Pros & cons

What I actually noticed.

LEGO Star Wars Imperial AT-AT

Pros

  • Tallest UCS Star Wars set ever — over 24 inches
  • Openable cabin reveals AT-AT pilot stations and a speeder rack
  • Includes 9 minifigs with snowtroopers and Imperial officers
  • Posable legs hold real weight without sagging

Cons

  • Same $849.99 sticker as the Falcon — serious commitment
  • Front-heavy; needs to be set down carefully on display
  • Minifig roster is 'cool' more than 'rare'

LEGO Star Wars Mos Eisley Cantina (UCS)

Pros

  • 21 minifigures — the largest Star Wars LEGO figure roster ever in a single set
  • Iconic Tatooine architecture with sandstone-coloured exterior
  • Removable roof for full interior staging
  • Includes Han Solo, Greedo, Luke, Obi-Wan, Chewbacca, and the entire cantina band
  • Retired since 2023 — secondary market up 80%+

Cons

  • Aftermarket has crossed $625 sealed
  • Roof-removal mechanism is delicate after years
  • Some interior detail is sticker-based
