The verdict

I'll be straight with you, this one surprised me.

Moloch's Landspeeder looks like a dented industrial tank next to the sleek X-34 and M-68 speeders LEGO usually gives us, and that's exactly why I like it. The hulking front scoop and the hidden Technic wheels that keep it rolling dead straight are genuinely clever engineering for something that only spans 464 pieces. It's not a set I'd tell a casual fan to chase down, but for Solo completists and anyone who wants Moloch and a pair of snarling Corellian Hounds on their shelf, it earns its keep.

The full review

What it is

Moloch's Landspeeder came out of Solo: A Star Wars Story in 2018, and I'll admit I went in expecting a forgettable tie-in. What I got instead was a speeder with real personality. It's built like a scrap-hauler with a front scoop practically overengineered for their smuggling job, and it feels tougher and stranger than the clean-lined speeders LEGO usually puts out. The whole thing rolls on four Technic wheels tucked so well into the underside that you barely notice them until you push it across the table and it tracks perfectly straight, which is a small detail that made me smile more than it probably should have.

The catch

Here's the honest part. At $39.99 for 464 pieces, this landed right at the edge of feeling fair and reviewers at the time flagged it, saying the model's size didn't quite justify the sticker even though the price per piece technically hit LEGO's usual benchmark. The color palette is also almost entirely tan and dark tan, which suits the desert-scrapper vibe of the film but will look monotone on a shelf next to your brighter Star Wars builds. And because Solo underperformed at the box office, this set never built the kind of following that turns into strong secondary market demand.

Who it's for

I'd point this one at Solo fans first, full stop, because the minifigs are the real draw here. Moloch and Rebolt don't appear anywhere else, and the Corellian Hounds are some of the most expressive creature figures LEGO has made, with that molded snarl and the glowing eyes. If you just want a fun mid-size vehicle build without much backstory attached, there are better value picks from the same era. But if Solo has a soft spot in your heart, or you collect the villain crews from every corner of the saga, this one belongs in your case.

What works

Moloch and Rebolt are exclusive to this set, and his dress piece is printed front and back, a first for that kind of slope part
The two Corellian Hound figures are genuinely creepy in the best way, with jagged teeth, glowing orange eyes and a caged spot built right into the speeder
Hidden Technic wheels give the model real rolling function instead of just looking like it moves

Worth knowing

At $39.99 for 464 pieces it landed on the expensive side, and reviewers at the time called the size out of step with the price
The color scheme is almost entirely tan, dark tan and black, which reads as drab if you're not into the Solo aesthetic
It's tied to one of the least loved Star Wars movies, so resale and hype never matched other vehicle sets from the same year

The parts story

What the build is actually like, and the pieces worth knowing about.

The build itself moves fast and reads as satisfying rather than repetitive, which is a relief in a set this size. You start with the chassis and those hidden Technic wheels, then layer up the scooped front end and the side cage where the Corellian Hounds ride, and by the end you've got a speeder that looks like it actually survived a smuggling run instead of rolling off a showroom floor.

The real value sits in the minifigs. Moloch's new dress piece is printed on both the front and back, something LEGO hadn't done with that kind of slope part before, and it makes him look properly imposing instead of flat. Rebolt is exclusive to this set too, and the two Corellian Hounds use a new creature mold with jagged teeth and bright orange eyes that still holds up as one of the better beast figures LEGO has produced. None of the four figures appear in any other set, which is exactly what makes this one worth tracking down even after it left shelves.

Fun facts

01Moloch and the Corellian Hounds have never appeared in any other LEGO set, making this the only way to get them
02This was one of the earlier LEGO sets to print a dress-style slope piece on both the front and back of the figure
03The set retired around December 2019, about a year and a half after its April 2018 release tied to the Solo movie
04It's based on Moloch's A-A4B landspeeder, a rig built for the crew's Kessel spice heist in the film
