The time has come, fellow builders. LEGO's Star Wars Day sale is upon us — a couple of days early! Per usual, there's a ton of stuff covered in the sale, so let us break it all down for you.
New Releases:
- LEGO Star Wars Jango Fett's Firespray-Class Starship ($299.99): This item is currently backordered, but still available for LEGO Insiders to pre-order now through May 3. Purchases, if there's still stock available, will open to everyone else on May 4, the actual Star Wars Day. Plus, this set automatically qualifies you for a free keychain, while supplies last.
- LEGO Star Wars Jango Fett Helmet ($69.99): Joining the ranks with the rest of the Star Wars helmet sets is now Jango Fett, which is available for purchase for everyone as of its launch today.
- LEGO Star Wars Kylo Ren Helmet ($69.99): You didn't think Jango Fett fans were going to have all the fun, did you? Kylo Ren's helmet is also newly added to the helmet lineup, and is available for everyone right away at launch.
- LEGO Star Wars Rebel U-Wing Starfighter ($69.99): Calling all Andor series fans — your time has come! This Starfighter recreation set is also available for everyone to purchase immediately today.
- LEGO Star Wars Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle ($69.99): You might need this to match the aforementioned Kylo Ren helmet, and if so, you're in luck! It's available for immediate purchase for everyone today.
- LEGO Star Wars Chopper (C1-10P) Astromech Droid ($99.99): Not to be forgotten, a new droid has joined the LEGO family as well! As seen in the Disney+ series Ahsoka, this set is also available to everyone right away today, no waiting for Insiders to go first.
Free Gifts:
- LEGO Star Wars Jango Fett's Starship Key Chain: This freebie is available, while supplies last between now and May 5, to those who purchase the newly launched Jango Fett's Firespray-Class Starship set mentioned above. That's a $20 savings on this rotating keychain, which also comes in a branded box.
- LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon Mini-Build: Spend $40 or more on any Star Wars franchised sets between now and May 5, and you'll snag this adorable little 74-piece freebie (worth $5) with your purchase. Of note, pre-orders do not count towards that $40 minimum spend.
- LEGO Star Wars Kamino Training Facility: If you're spending $160 or more on Star Wars sets between now and May 5, you'll also qualify for this 190-piece freebie set, worth $30. Unfortunately, pre-orders also do not count towards this minimum purchase amount.
And last, but most certainly not least...
LEGO Insiders-Specific Goodies:
- The LEGO Star Wars The Razor Crest set is boasting a $120 discount for Insiders only, now through May 5, while supplies last.
- LEGO Insiders members (which is free to join, as a head's up!) can also snag either 2x the points or 4x the points on select Star Wars purchases between now and May 5, and those points add up quickly to what is essentially free dollars off future LEGO purchases.
- There are also brand new Star Wars rewards added for Insiders, should you choose to redeem your points on physical items rather than dollars off. From collectible coins to a pencil case to a magnet to posters, there's a little something in here for every type of fan.
- And finally — it's been a lot, I know — there are also currently 3 Star Wars related sweepstakes running that Insiders can enter into. Take your chances and enter to win a LEGO Star Wars bundle + $500 egift card, one of two signed Jango Fett's Firespray-Class Starship sets (pictured for this write-up), and/or a signed copy of the expansive new LEGO Star Wars The Force of Creativity book, which covers 25 years of LEGO Star Wars designs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should you clean kids' toys?
Most toys should be cleaned weekly, but baby toys (which are often put into mouths) should be cleaned every one to two days. If your kids have a playdate, toys should be cleaned immediately afterwards. And if your child is sick, it's important to clean and disinfect toys thoroughly when they've recovered.
How do you clean kids' toys?
Cleaning steps for toys varies depending on the type of toy, so it's recommended to follow these guidelines:
- Solid plastic toys can go in the top rack of your dishwasher. Select the normal or sanitizing cycle and heated dry. If anything comes out still wet, allow it to completely dry before letting your child play with it again.
- You can also use Clorox or Lysol wipes to clean plastic toys , or a cloth wet with a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution. Alternatively, you can also soak them in a mix of a half cup of chlorine bleach and one gallon of water. If you opt for one of these methods, once the toys are dry, rinse them and let them air dry again before giving them back to your child.
- If washing stuffed animals, check the care label first. If they're colorfast and okay to be washed in the washing machine, tuck them into a pillowcase and knot the top to protect them. Wash on the most gentle cycle you have, with warm water and a slow spin. You can then dry the toys in the dryer (leave them in the pillowcase) on a low-heat setting.
- If plush toys can't be washed by conventional means, wipe it down with a warm sudsy solution. Rinse with a cloth dipped in warm water. Allow the toy to air dry, or you can use your hair dryer on low heat.
- Electronic toys can be cleaned with a disinfectant wipe , an alcohol wipe, or a cloth dipped in a mix of four teaspoons of chlorine bleach to one quarter cup of water. Make sure the toy remains wet for five to ten minutes, then let it air dry. If it's something your child will stick in their mouth, wipe it down with a damp, clean cloth and let it air dry again.

Can you wash stuffed animals?
If they're colorfast, it should be fine to tuck them into a knotted pillowcase to keep them protected in the washer. Wash them on a gentle cycle, with warm water and a slow spin. Otherwise, you should spot clean the stuffed animals and dry them with a hairdryer.
When do LEGOs go on sale?
Black Friday is when we tend to see the most LEGO deals spread across the most stores, but it's not the only time to purchase these popular toys. Keep an eye out throughout the year, particularly at stores like Target and Walmart . Expect these retailers to have big toy sales that include LEGOs, or just offer select sets at discounted prices.
