LEGO Star Wars magazine adds minifigure from controversial set

A future LEGO Star Wars magazine will give fans the chance to pick up a minifigure they might otherwise skip.

Bricky_news reports (via outdoorbricks_rdbk) that an upcoming issue of the magazine will include a Galactic Marine minifigure – currently only available in 75413 Republic Juggernaut.

While next month’s UK issue features a Commando Droid, this report confirms the Galactic Marine will appear in a future release.

75413 Republic Juggernaut, an 813-piece set retailing at £139.99 / $159.99 / €149.99, drew criticism at launch for its relatively small build and stability issues.

However, one small highlight from the set is the moulded helmet design for the Galactic Marines, even though they do not include waist capes.

The magazine release will let fans obtain the minifigure without buying the full set.

The issue launches in Germany on June 19, with no confirmed dates for other regions, as they typically follow later.
