Lego’s Smart Brick is here, and it transforms these new Star Wars sets

Lego's Smart Brick revolutionizes Star Wars sets

Lego has launched its Smart Brick, a mini-computer packed into a classic 2x4 brick, included in three of the eight new Star Wars sets. Prices range from $69.99 for Darth Vader's TIE Fighter to $159.99 for the Throne Room Duel & A-Wing set.

This innovation allows for interactive play with smart minifigures and NFC technology, enhancing the Lego experience. The Smart Brick was awarded 'best in show' at CES 2026, signaling a major leap in toy technology.

With eight Star Wars sets supporting the Smart Brick, Lego is poised to redefine playtime. Expect more smart-enabled sets in the future as they expand this technology across their product lines.
