The time has come, fellow builders. LEGO's Star Wars Day sale is upon us. 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.
