2024 has been a massive year for LEGO Star Wars as the theme has celebrated 25 years of existence with a range of exclusive anniversary sets. Across these sets a total of eight exclusive anniversary Minifigures have appeared including in one of the final models of the year for the licensed LEGO theme of 40755 Imperial Dropship VS Rebel Scout Speeder which has been officially revealed today.
The 8+ set includes our eighth and final anniversary Minifigure of the QT-KT astrodroid once it releases on the 1st of October 2024. QT-KT was a member of the D-Squad during the Clone Wars and was originally created as a character/droid in memory of Katie Johnson to raise awareness of pediatric illness. The 'droid with the heart of gold' appears in 40755 in its mainly pink colouring along with a couple of finer details in white and grey.
Along with QT-KT, six other Minifigures are included of three Stormtroopers and three Rebel Troopers respectively. Unsurprisingly, the Stormtroopers are associated with the Imperial Dropship and the Rebel Scout troopers with the speeder which are both included in the 383-piece build.
For a long time, 40755 has been described as 'the 25th-anniversary set' and that's no surprise as the 2024 model basically combines two classic LEGO Star Wars sets which released back in 2008. These are 7667 Imperial Dropship and 7668 Rebel Scout Speeder. The two vehicles are in 40755 but a lot more detailed and updated with added blasters, stud shooters, thrusters, prints and much more.
