📝 Our Take

Hoth Attack is a decent entry-level Star Wars set. It captures the feel of the iconic battle with some fun play features and recognizable minifigures.

This set is perfect for younger builders or those new to LEGO Star Wars. The build is straightforward and quick, making it a great introduction to the theme.

Skip this if you're looking for a complex or highly detailed Hoth diorama. Consider the larger Hoth sets for a more immersive experience.

Investment Grade
⏳ Appreciating
The Hoth Attack set has seen a steady price increase since its retirement, driven by the enduring popularity of the Star Wars theme and the recognizable Hoth setting. While not the most spectacular set, its affordability and inclusion of key characters like Han Solo make it appealing to collectors. However, its relatively small size and simple design limit its long-term investment potential compared to larger, more detailed sets. The rising price trend suggests it will continue to appreciate modestly, but it's unlikely to become a highly sought-after collector's item. Potential investors should be aware that future re-releases of Hoth-themed sets could impact its value.

📖 About This Set

Only you can decide.

  • Features a foldout Echo Base with a rotating tower with opening hatch and flick missile, trench, Imperial Probe Droid and an Imperial stud shooter.
  • Fold out the base for an even bigger model.
  • Fire the flick missile from the tower to defend the base.
  • Use the stud shooter to attack the Imperial Snowtrooper.
  • Weapons include a blaster rifle, blaster and a blaster pistol.
  • Accessory elements include a shovel,wrench, and 2 helmets.

  • Rebel base measures over 4” (12cm) high, 5” (14cm) wide and 4” (12cm) deep.

Compare Similar Sets

Compared to other Hoth-themed sets, 75138-1 offers a smaller, more affordable entry point. While it lacks the detail and scale of larger sets like the 75098-1 Assault on Hoth, it provides a quick and accessible building experience. Consider this set if you're on a budget or looking for a simple Hoth addition to your collection. Otherwise, the 75098-1 offers a more comprehensive Hoth experience, albeit at a significantly higher price.
