Ecosystem

75236 Duel on Starkiller Base 62 — 75269 vastly improves on the predecessor despite only having 17 more pieces; it offers a much larger final display, far more engaging play experience with dynamic moving platforms and rotating elements rather than just a collapsing tree feature

Original Duel on Mustafar (2005 set) — Different design approach - the original used Technic axles for wave mechanics, whereas this version uses movable platforms; David notes this is not what he originally anticipated but finds it interesting and functional

Mandalorian Battle Pack — David recommends both as a great combo for limited budgets, providing representation of both Episode III prequel content and new Mandalorian content
