LEGO Star Wars Boba Fett's Starship vs LEGO Star Wars Slave I (UCS)
Both built. Both reviewed. Here's how they actually compare on the things that matter.
Set #75312
LEGO Star Wars Boba Fett's Starship
Boba Fett's ship at affordable scale. Smaller than the [UCS Slave I](/reviews/slave-i), bigger than a starter set — the right Boba Fett ship for most builders.
Set #75060
LEGO Star Wars Slave I (UCS)
Boba Fett's iconic ship in UCS form. Long retired, fiercely sought-after, and one of the most distinctive silhouettes in the entire UCS lineup.
