Star Wars: Legion Rebel Alliance Starter Set: Release date, cost, value, and more

BBG News

I’m thrilled that the release date for the Star Wars: Legion Starter Sets has been announced! Today, let’s take a closer look at what each set contains. Although some details may be repeated in future articles, my main focus is on the value that each box offers.

To kick off our initial disassembly, let’s delve into the beloved band of rebels, the Rebel Alliance! This group, spearheaded by Luke Skywalker, is made up of a vibrant mix of freedom fighters aiming to reestablish the Republic.

Star Wars: Legion Rebel Alliance box contents

Inside the Star Wars: Legion Rebel Alliance Starter Set you’ll get:

1: 1x Luke Skywalker figure:

In the latest scene, Luke Skywalker is wearing the same distinctive yellow jacket that he was spotted in at the end of “Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope”. Interestingly, this same attire has also been featured in the Marvel’s Star Wars comic book series.

Even though he’s not yet fully proficient with a lightsaber, Luke can be spotted using a blaster in the other hand too, and that additional weaponry gives him a stylish, appealing appearance.

2: 22x Rebel Troopers:

At the heart of the Rebel Alliance lies a group of rebels who risked everything to overthrow the oppressive Galactic Empire and restore the Galactic Republic. Although they may not have been as prominently featured in the initial films, these miniature representations effectively demonstrate the multifaceted makeup of the Rebel Alliance, which was more inclusive compared to the predominantly human-led Galactic Empire.

3: 7x Rebel Commandos:

It’s essential for every strong military unit to have an elite special forces group, and the Rebel Commando squad fits this role perfectly. Making their debut in Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi, on the forest moon of Endor, these Rebel Commandos were a wise decision for both storytelling depth and visual appeal reasons.

4: 6x Wookiee Warriors

It’s plausible that other Wookiees besides Chewbacca joined the Rebel Alliance, given their desire to free themselves from Imperial slavery.

Equipped with bowcasters and other formidable armaments, these Wookiee Warriors serve as a powerful addition to the team.

5: Dice, Movement Tools, Cards, etc:

To wrap things up, let’s discuss the essential items for enjoying the game. Unlike many war games that use D6 dice, Star Wars: Legion uses unique dice for scoring hits, wounds, and saves. Additionally, you will receive command cards, unit cards, battle cards, range and measurement tools, tokens, and inserts. Although each starter box’s cards may vary, the other tools included will be consistent across all new starter kits.

Box price and overall value

As a cinephile diving headfirst into the captivating world of Star Wars: Legon, I’m thrilled to share that the Rebel Alliance Starter Set will be priced on par with our forthcoming starter sets, setting you back $99.99. These kits are often a smart investment for wargame enthusiasts like ourselves, offering an economical entry point into this exhilarating universe. In what follows, let’s delve deeper and compare the value of the boxed set against purchasing everything piecemeal.

To acquire the Luke figure with the yellow jacket, you should pre-order the “Heroes of the Rebellion” box, scheduled for release in October at a retail price of $69.99. If you’d like to collect more Rebel Troopers, remember that a single box comes with 11 models, so purchasing two boxes would give you 22 Rebel Troopers, totaling approximately $109.98.

A separate box containing seven Rebel Commandos costs $52.99, while the Wookiee Warriors’ box is priced at $34.95. For additional options, consider the movement and range tools, available for $29.99 each. The attack and defense dice are separately priced at $17.99 apiece.

You may also find various card packs available with varying costs. When adding everything up, the total for purchasing items individually amounts to approximately $333.88. However, you can save around $234 (excluding tax) by opting for the starter set at $99.99, making it a fantastic bargain!

If you’re interested in starting with Star Wars: Legion or desire high-quality, updated hard plastic figures while saving money, the Rebel Alliance Starter Pack is perfect for you! The release date for the Rebel Alliance Starter Pack is scheduled for September 19, 2025.

Keep an eye out as I’ll be providing a detailed analysis of the Galactic Empire Starter Set in the coming days!
