We’re halfway through April, which can only mean one thing: time to clear some shelf space and emotionally prepare your bank account. That’s right, May the 4th is coming, and LEGO Star Wars is marking the occasion with nine new sets and enough collectibles to make a Jawa blush.
Here’s everything LEGO Star Wars is doing to make your May the 4th more epic than ever:
Jango Fett’s Firespray-Class Starship
Fans of the prequels, rejoice! The Jango Fett’s Firespray-Class Starship (75409) is here to satisfy your bounty-hunting cravings. This beast boasts 2,970 pieces, so it’s not exactly a “build it in an afternoon” kind of set—unless you’re some sort of Jedi Master, in which case, kudos. You can position the ship in both landing and flight modes, making this a versatile display piece for any shelf. Features include a movable entrance, adjustable blasters, and even a seismic charge (so, yes, your inner Mandalorian can go all-out). The set is priced at US$299.99 and measures over 19 cm (7.5 in.) high, 44 cm (17.5 in.) long, and 39 cm (15.5 in.) wide.
LEGO Star Wars Brick-Built Logo
Ever wanted to build the Star Wars logo in glorious brick form? Now’s your chance! The LEGO Star Wars Brick-Built Logo (75407) brings the iconic title card to life with 700 pieces. It’s got hidden details to discover as you build—like a cheeky Easter egg or two from the galaxy far, far away. Perfect for those who want a Star Wars display that doesn’t require a spaceship to showcase. At US$59.99, this set measures 13 cm (5 in.) high, 30 cm (11.5 in.) long, and just 3 cm (1 in.) deep. It’s a must-have for fans who appreciate the little things. If you ask me, I’d say this is a must-have for all Star Wars fans.
Chopper (C1-10P) Astromech Droid
Who doesn’t love Chopper? The grumpy astromech from Ahsoka is now a LEGO set (75416), and yes, he’s just as sassy in brick form. With posable arms, head movements, and hidden tools, Chopper’s personality shines through. The set also includes an info plaque that’s like a mini fan guide to the droid’s greatest hits. For US$99.99, you’ll get 1,039 pieces and a figure that measures over 22 cm (8.5 in.) tall, 16 cm (6 in.) wide, and 10 cm (3.5 in.) long. Not bad for a droid with attitude!
Kylo Ren’s Command Shuttle
For those who prefer their ships a bit sleeker, the LEGO Star Wars Kylo Ren’s Command Shuttle (75406) (US$69.99) is here. With 386 pieces, this shuttle features an impressive wingspan of 44 cm (17.5 inches) in flight mode, perfect for display. Whether you’re adding it to your growing fleet or just need something to look cooler than a plain old TIE fighter, this shuttle is your go-to.
Kylo Ren’s Helmet
For those who like to keep things on the darker side, the Kylo Ren Helmet (75415) is the perfect addition to your collection. This 529-piece set (yes, there’s no need for the whole galaxy’s worth of bricks) lets you create Kylo Ren’s distinctive helmet. For US$69.99, you’ll get a solid, dark side piece that measures 18 cm (7 in.) high, 11 cm (4.5 in.) wide, and 13 cm (5 in.) deep.
Jango Fett’s Helmet
Jango Fett’s Helmet (75408) is the other half of the bounty hunter helmet duo. At US$69.99 and 616 pieces, this set lets you build the helmet worn by the galaxy’s most notorious bounty hunter. If you’re into fine details, the adjustable rangefinder antenna is here to make your LEGO world just a little more epic. This helmet measures 21 cm (8.5 in.) high, 12 cm (4.5 in.) long, and 11 cm (4 in.) deep.
Rebel U-Wing Starfighter
The Rebel U-Wing Starfighter (75399) is all about the Rogue One vibes. At US$69.99 and 594 pieces, this set includes minifigures like Cassian Andor, K-2SO, and Dedra Meero (in her very first LEGO form!). It even has a wing swing function, so you can recreate that iconic V-formation. With a length of 41 cm (16 in.) and a width of 16 cm (6 in.), this set is perfect for anyone who wants to add some Rebel spirit to their collection.
LEGO Star Wars BrickHeadz: Mini Heroes and Villains
Sometimes, size doesn’t matter—take these adorable LEGO Star Wars BrickHeadz sets. First up, we’ve got Luke Skywalker in his Rebel Pilot gear (40795) for US$9.99. It’s a small, fun build for those who love the classics. But for fans of Revenge of the Sith, the Heroes and Villains set (40796) brings the heat with 656 pieces for US$49.99. These BrickHeadz figures are perfect for display, and they won’t take up much space on your shelf.
Side Events: Get Ready for the Ultimate Star Wars Day
LEGO is going all out this year with some cool side events. Fans at Star Wars Celebration in Japan (April 18th-20th) can check out a massive 220 sq. meter booth packed with exclusive LEGO Star Wars experiences. You’ll get to see the new sets, meet the LEGO Star Wars design team, and take photos with iconic scenes built out of LEGO bricks. You can also grab some cool early access sets, including the LEGO Star Wars Brick-Built Logo and Revenge of the Sith BrickHeadz.
And that’s not all—LEGO Insiders members can snag exclusive rewards like a Jango Fett Firespray-Class Starship Key Chain with qualifying purchases, and the Kamino Training Facility with purchases over US$160. Plus, there are tons of giveaways happening at select LEGO Stores, so keep an eye out.
Whether you’re building a galaxy’s worth of ships or just adding a bit of dark side flair to your shelf, LEGO has your May the 4th celebrations covered. Get ready to unleash your inner Jedi (or Sith) and start building! May the bricks be with you.
