Lego set 75159, released in 2016, is a legitimate and widely produced product, so your item is authentic if it bears the standard Lego branding and packaging. To verify authenticity, check that the box features the official Lego logo and the correct set number 75159, and ensure the plastic pieces have the distinct "LEGO" stamp molded on top. You can also cross-reference the set's appearance and piece count against official Lego product images to confirm it matches the genuine release.
The Death Star was released in 2016 by Lego.
Lego set 75159, the Death Star, is no longer in production and is not available to purchase new directly from the manufacturer. It was officially discontinued by Lego in 2017, meaning any new copies currently on the market are likely from remaining retail stock or third-party resellers.
Grading a LEGO Death Star (set 75159) involves inspecting the physical condition of the plastic pieces and the box, as LEGO sets are not officially graded by major third-party agencies like PSA or CGC. You should check for yellowing of the white and gray elements, missing or damaged minifigures, and any scuffs, dents, or missing stickers on the packaging. For a formal valuation, the set's value is primarily determined by its completeness and whether it remains sealed in its original box, with unboxed sets valued significantly lower based on the condition of the individual bricks.
