I'm a real fan of the design of this spaceship, mostly because I like big engines!
Lamentably, I’ve not been in a position to acquire previous iterations of LEGO® Razor Crests. Set 75292 The Razor Crest from 2020 (above left) never seemed to be in stock when I had the required galactic credits or appropriate weight of beskar to trade. The massive £500+ behemoth from 2022, 75331 The Razor Crest (right) was never remotely in my budget range.
So this is my first Razor Crest and I'm excited to see if it's a bounty worthy of the hunting.
New moulds
There are two new moulds in the set, a new head for Garazeb (Zeb) Orrelios and a new body for Din Grogu. I will cover these parts in more detail below with the rest of the newly printed minifigure parts.
New print
- 1x Cylinder Half 3 x 6 x 6 Closed on Top with 2 Studs with print in Trans-Clear (6605472 | 67950)
Despite being very much in-LEGO® System, this is the first time this interesting panel has been used since its introduction in the 2020 Razor Crest set. This looks very similar to the 2020 print, but is yellow instead of grey.
Recolours
Light grey fans rejoice!
- 6x Window Round 3 x 3 x 2 in Light Bluish Gray (6584326 | 73878)
- 12x Glass for Window 1 x 2 x 2 Flat in Light Bluish Gray (6584327 | 60601, 35315, 35316)
- 20x Brick Round Corner 3 x 3 Macaroni with 2 Studs in Light Bluish Gray (6584328 | 5152)
This is a nice quantity of this newer size of macaroni.
Not everything is light grey, however:
- 1x Cone Half 6 x 3 x 6 (Elliptic Paraboloid) in Yellow (6584211 | 18909)
- 2x Plate Round 1 x 2 Half Circle with Stud (Jumper) in Dark Bluish Gray (6601830 | 1745)
The half-cone is enjoying a minor resurgence: it wasn't included in any sets from 2023 to 2025, but this is its second appearance of 2026, the first being 21367 Tintin® Moon Rocket (see Elspeth's review of the LEGO® Ideas Tintin set).
Rarer pieces
Both of these parts already appear in four other sets, but lower quantities or availability restricted to higher-priced sets made them both feel worth mentioning.
- 2x Slope 1 x 4 with 1 x 2 Cutout in Light Bluish Gray (6558989 | 5654)
- 8x Panel 3 x 3 x 2 Quarter Round in Light Bluish Gray (6508087 | 3535) – most notably, 16 were included in the 75355 X-Wing Starfighter from 2023 (read Tom's review of the LEGO UCS X-Wing)
Minifigures
As has seemingly become standard with LEGO® Star Wars sets over the last few years, the minifigure selection is very good.
How appropriate for this set, and how closely related to the content of the film these characters are, remains to be seen.
Zeb Orrelios
- 1x Head Zeb in Lavender (6581510) – this is a new mould in addition to the more obvious decoration differences
- 1x Torso with print in White (6603882) – note the over-moulded arms in lavender/blue
- 1x Legs with print in Blue (6581513) – also over-moulded lavender/blue
I don't have the previous Zeb (that was based on the Star Wars Rebels animated series version of the character) for comparison. That Zeb is a highly sought-after figure that commands an inflated secondhand value, owing to its notable exclusivity to the 2014 set 75053 The Ghost. This is surely compounded by his (debatable) absence from the 2023 set 75357 The Ghost & Phantom II.
I'm pleased to see this character reintroduced in LEGO form and I suspect he will be the main reason a lot of fans buy this set.
Din Grogu
- 1x Body, Grogu in Dark Tan (6602811)
This is a new body with more accurate coat with the signature high collar. Grogu's head is the same as in previous releases, and it surprised me that a spare was included in the box. I have checked the inventories on BrickLink and the same was true of 75292 but confusingly, there was not a spare in 75331, or any other set that contains an appearance of 'The Child' for that matter!
The increased accuracy of Grogu's funky wide collared dressing-gown coat comes at the expense of the usual bar attachment hands found on the regular baby body (25128) and all its variants. My attachment of a robot arm here doesn't feel like a secure connection, and I think I detected some small resistance to the attachment I made, but it stayed in place relatively well. So, it would appear that Grogu's hand can still hold some things, even if they likely turn out to be illegal connections.
Colonel Ward
- 1x Minifig Head with print in Light Nougat (6610138)
- 1 x Hair Short Wavy with Side Part in Dark Orange (6610637 | 11256, 34283)
- 1x Torso with print in Sand Green (6603899)
This hair piece is found in just two other sets: the recently released (and soon-to-be-reviewed 75460 New Republic X-Wing Starfighter™) and the Sigourney Weaver minifigure in LEGO® Avatar 75573 Floating Mountains Site 26 & RDA Samson, from 2022.
Imperial Remnant Stormtrooper
- 1x Minifig Neckwear Pauldron [PLAIN] in Black (6551470 | 7504) in its unprinted form is also in the LEGO® SMART Play set 75425 Mos Eisley Cantina
- 1x Minifig Head, Eyebrows, Reddish Brown Lines, Angry Stare Print in Medium Nougat (6541250) is only available in the 'Death Slice' 75419 Death Star™, the 40771 Tie Fighter gift with purchase that came with it, and one other expensive LEGO® Batman set, 76300 Arkham Asylum.
The pauldron (7504) was introduced in two sets in 2025 with dark orange printing (6565209) and, if you follow our regular Pick a Brick updates, you'll know that this unprinted pauldron (6551470) has been available to purchase there for quite a while already.
It is quite a neat looking part, and I can see possibilities for a cool little mudguard made from this element, so I'm itching to build a buggy to test that out. However, with sadly only one included in the set, none available on BrickLink in the UK currently, and showing as out of stock on Pick a Brick at the time of writing, that's an itch I will have to wait to scratch.
The Mandalorian
- 1 x Helmet Mandalorian with Holes, Dark Bluish Gray Decorations, Black Visor Print in Silver Metallic/ Flat Silver (6524572)
- 1x Torso with print in Dark Brown (6605594)
- 1x Legs with print in Dark Brown (6581498)
The helmet is currently a rarer variant; this print was introduced in late 2025. It is Pedro’s existing head though, unchanged from the other versions of the figure that have included a face for the Mandalorian.
The torso has a new ID, but I cannot see a difference from all previous releases. However, we are treated to new prints for his legs that feature boot tips and... knees?
Stickers
I did not apply the stickers and I think the model does suffer a little with a lack of details as a result. However, like many of you I generally prefer to leave parts unstickered, so as to not restrict their usage in my own MOCs.
Some of the sticker designs, it should be noted, are very neat. They are generic enough that they could easily have improvised uses for MOCs as there appears to be no real identifying insignia on them.
The build
This is a great-looking model, translating the design from the new film very well – or at least what I can see of it in its extremely brief appearances in the trailer. Although, I think it is fair to assume that most of the differences will only be cosmetic.
I really like the colour shift to yellow accents; it's an improvement over the tan of the original. Neither are perfect, but I feel that the yellow is an improvement. Some of the proportions do look a little less generous than the first LEGO Razor Crest.
The internal cargo space (and access to it) is really good, but nothing much resides here: no carbonite bounties, and what I assume is a sleeping area is devoid of the decoration of instrumentation that was present as stickers in the first Razor Crest. Some internal construction below the cockpit has been given over to represent an internal reactor core or other sci-fi MacGuffin type "engine"or drive system.
Sadly, apart from a pair of stud shooters (not a favourite feature of mine) it's a little lacklustre in respect of play features.
Along with the big dark grey Viking wagon wheels (55817), they break up what could otherwise spell out a nonsense of Morse code-like stud notches along its length.
The engine exhaust nozzle is constructed around the Plate Special 2 x 2 with Bar Frame Round (7068). Elspeth analysed the 2x2 with round bar over a year ago but the part is new to me, this being the first set I have encountered it in! The obvious advantage over the old octagonal part (75937) for this application is the fixed distribution offered by its eight clip attachment points.
Is 75447 Razor Crest good value?
I have provided value analyses based on weight in almost all of my reviews since 2024, and that metric has occasionally revealed to me better value in a set than I might have concluded based on the usual metric of price per part.
Set 75447 The Razor Crest contains 930 pieces and weighs 1566g. The recommended price is £139.99 ($149.99 / €149.99 / AU$ 249.99). This results in a price per gram (PPG) of 8.94p.
That PPG isn't wonderful, but compared to other LEGO Star Wars sets I've reviewed, I have to conclude it doesn't seem all that unreasonable either. Click the links to read my reviews:
- 75452 BB8 : 11.64p per gram
- 75440 AT-AT : 10.37p per gram
- 75441 Venator : 8.8p per gram
- 75414 Force Burrner : 9.45p per gram
I have seen other reviews of 75447 The Razor Crest questioning the value based on the price per part (PPP) of 15.1p, and a long time ago (in a galaxy far, far away) that would have triggered the same response from me also. I don't think it is a wholly unfair assessment either, because something about this set still seems expensive.
Previously I have noticed that a disparity between the PPG and PPP values could be attributed to the inventory having on average a higher proportion of large (or heavier) parts. However, my observation of the inventory of the 75447 Razor Crest only partially supports that hypothesis. There are a few larger parts, but not excessive numbers of small elements that bump up the parts count and therefore mitigate the PPP.
The price does still feel high when I look at what the 930 parts has produced. It's a very solid ship and has a nice weight in the hand for swooshing. So I have to admit, it's a bit of a head scratcher: I like the model, even if it seems a little small for the price.
I decided to compare it to the original set 75292. Five and a half years of inflation has turned 1023 parts for £120 into 930 for £140.
Sadly a good degree of "shrinkflation" does seem to have occurred too, both in the dimensions and what the set offers for play. The published dimensions for each set are:
- 75292: 5.5 in. (14cm) high, 15 in. (38cm) long and 11 in. (28cm) wide
- 75447: 5 in. (13 cm) high, 12.5 in. (32cm) long and 9.5 in. (24cm) wide
I also tend to ponder what else I might get for my money, and I do want more for £140 – but this is my first Razor Crest; a nice spaceship to have. Quite aside from my Star Wars fandom, I like the design.
I have not religiously watched the entirety of the Disney+ Mandalorian content either, but I'm not sure that I would buy something different if I was buying another LEGO set.
Might my money might be better spent acquiring an original 75292 Razor Crest from a secondary market seller? New-in-sealed-box examples have recently been available on eBay for similar money to the recommended price of this new iteration of the ship.
TLG have again reported an increase in profits this year and maybe it's an overly simplistic reaction but I can't help feeling that if that's the case, maybe their products could include a little more for the money we so willingly spend!
Conclusion
LEGO Star Wars sets have introduced some very cool and incredibly useful pieces over the years. I have bought sets (sometimes in multiples) just for the parts on a number of occasions, although admittedly not for a good few years now. I have also been known to buy a set for the minifigures alone!
Even though there are good minifigures in this set, I still want something new to add to my parts collection too. I don't want to be unfair, because there are parts in this new Razor Crest that I am pleased to see, if only those recoloured light grey macaroni and window elements. The remainder of the parts look like they'd add nicely to any Sci-Fi ship-building build pile too. But, it's not quite enough to support my recommendation at this price, even allowing for that slightly more reasonable price per gram (compared to recent LEGO Star Wars sets).
If there were just a few of a new part to add greebling, or an interesting snot brick, a new curved slope or tile I think my final verdict might be a little more favourable. I'm always going to want more in a set that's aimed at the larger, more expensive end of the product range.
All things considered, and despite earlier reservations about proportion, I like the overall accuracy of the ship. Those splashes of yellow really do contrast well with the greys of the rest of the fuselage and engines.
It's a solid build and is a good size for more traditional play as opposed to display. The opening sections allow good access to the inner cargo section of the ship and the method of the cockpit canopy removal is very neat too.
As it is, this is a nice set and if like me you don't already own a Razor Crest, I think you'll be pleased with this interpretation. If it's bounty or beskar you're hunting, I think better rewards might be found elsewhere. This might not be precisely the way, but it's not flying off in the wrong direction either.
