It’s safe to say that there are more Star Wars fans now than ever before. From OG ones who saw the original movie back in 1977 (and each one afterward) to the new fans who resonate with the last three installments and new shows like The Mandalorian, a whole plethora of fans out there love this intergalactic series. Believe it or not, when it comes to the new generation, the love is truly owed to LEGO’s.
LEGO practically wrote the blueprint for buildable toys. For years, children and adults have been able to build whatever their imagination dreams up and turn their heart’s desires into reality — including the most iconic scenes, ships, and spacecrafts from Star Wars. Over the years, they’ve crafted some of the most unique sets from the series, like a massive Millennium Falcon or a Tie-Fighter. But this year, in honor of Star Wars Day and the 25th Anniversary of Episode I: The Phantom Menace, the toy company has gone above and beyond to release special editions that commemorate the occasion.
These new sets include a moveable R2-D2, the Tantive IV from A New Hope, and so much more that’ll make you feel like you’re in the movie, and the best part is it’s something your kids can have forever. Below, you’ll find some of the new special-edition LEGO Star Wars sets that have already come out and some that you can pre-order that’ll be released on the holiday. Either way, with these new kits, you and your family will have a fantastic Star Wars Day — May the Fourth be with you, my dear friends.
