LEGO's new UCS Executor Super Star Destroyer is here, and at $800, it's one of the biggest LEGO purchasing decisions you can make.
But before you buy it… you need to see how it compares to the original. For this episode, I'm pulling my legendary 10221 UCS Super Star Destroyer off the shelf for an in-depth review — and putting it head-to-head with LEGO's brand-new 2026 version.
There's also a great story behind this particular set. I found mine on Craigslist back in January 2013 for only $200, having absolutely no idea what it would eventually become worth. More than 13 years later, it's time to find out how well it has held up.
We'll compare the two generations of the Executor, including their size, price, value, minifigures, display presence and some surprising numbers that completely changed the way I look at the new $800 version.
On paper, the new Super Star Destroyer is bigger and more impressive in almost every way. But is it actually a better value? And if you already own 10221, is there any reason to upgrade? By the end, I'll tell you which one I'd rather own — and whether I think you should spend $800 on the new one.
👇 Which Executor would you choose: the original 10221 or the new 75457? Let me know in the comments!
