"With a BrickScore of 73.6, LEGO Rey (41602) is a pleasant surprise that punches above its packaging — her hidden-complexity hairstyle and fun build win over Star Wars fans and BrickHeadz collectors alike, though expert reviewers agree the face design doesn't quite match the bar set by companion set Kylo Ren."
LEGO BrickHeadz 41602 Rey earns a warm reception overall, with reviewers consistently highlighting her remarkably intricate hairstyle as the standout design achievement — one that surprises with hidden complexity not visible in packaging photos. The included blue lightsaber and movie-accurate costume color scheme add to the appeal. Expert reviewers, however, note that the face design falls short compared to the simultaneously released Kylo Ren (41603), citing a too-square, detail-lacking tan face, while owner reviews are uniformly enthusiastic. At £9.99/$9.99 for 119 pieces, value is broadly considered fair for the format.
Where they split: Owner reviews are unanimously positive (all 5-star), while expert reviewers (Brickset, Brick Fanatics) offer more measured takes — particularly on the face design and color accuracy of the costume. Brick Fanatics rates design aesthetics notably lower (55) versus Brickset's 85, reflecting real disagreement on how well the face captures Rey as a character.

"Not every character is suited to the BrickHeadz style and I was concerned that 41602 Rey may be among them. However, this set has proven to be a pleasant surprise!"

"In some ways I found this as enjoyable a set as Kylo Ren, in other ways I did not."
