New LEGO Star Wars sets for May 4th
For Star Wars Day, LEGO has introduced several new sets to its Star Wars theme. These include a highly-anticipated box-fresh LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series set to brick-built versions of a Droideka and Darth Maul’s Sith Infiltrator.

The most anticipated new release to LEGO’s Star Wars theme comes in the shape of an Ultimate Collector Series TIE Interceptor. It’s a spectacular piece of kit, designed to offer adult fans of the galaxy far, far away with an enthralling building experience as they click together each of this set’s bricks.
Hands down the best TIE Interceptor model ever created by LEGO, this set, once the build is complete, looks marvelous. The kit’s intricate design recreates the TIE Interceptor from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi to a T. There are the iconic wings, rear-mounted motor, and laser cannons. The cockpit is accessed via the opening hatch.
In addition, this 12.5-inch-tall, 13-inches-wide, and 16-inch-long model can be fixed to a display stand.

2. LEGO Star Wars Mos Espa Podrace Diorama — 75380

Recreating the action-packed Mos Espa Podrace from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace in brick format, this newly-released set is a worthy addition to your Star Wars-inspired LEGO diorama collection.
However, not only will the completed build look great on display, the assembly process will be rewarding. This brick-built diorama contains the second-largest piece count of any LEGO Star Wars diorama you can currently buy.
Setting the scene, the authentically-designed model reimagines the moment Anakin Skywalker and Sebulba’s Podracers fly through the Canyons of the Mos Espa Podracing circuit. A minifigure of the former and LEGO figure of the latter would have been a neat addition to this set, though.
The completed set measures four-and-a-half inches tall, five-and-a-half inches deep, and 12 inches long. The kit includes a plaque with Qui-Gon Jinn’s words, “Remember, concentrate on the moment. Feel. Don’t think. Use your instincts”, and a LEGO Star Wars 25th anniversary brick.

New LEGO BrickHeadz Star sets for May 4th
In 2024, LEGO released a selection of new LEGO BrickHeadz sets taking inspiration from Marvel characters, such as Spider-Man, to Disney characters, such as Stitch. However, new Star Wars-inspired models were missing from the lineup… Up until now, that is.
LEGO has introduced a duo of LEGO BrickHeadz sets, which includes one comprising six characters and a brick-built model of Clone Commander Cody. Both of these kits will be exclusively available from LEGO.
1. LEGO BrickHeadz The Phantom Menace — 40676
LEGO- Set ID: 40676
- Piece count: 732
- Age: 10+
- MSRP: $54.99

Celebrating the 25th anniversary of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, this kit includes LEGO-reimagined models of six iconic characters. The ensemble comprises Anakin Skywalker, Jar Jar Binks, Darth Maul, Queen Amidala, Qui-Gon Jinn, and Captain Panaka, each of which can be displayed atop individual baseplates.
The tallest of these buildable models stands two-and-a-half inches tall, with the width and depth of each character coming in at one-and-a-half inches and two inches, respectively.
In addition, the set features several accessory elements, which include young Anakin’s hammer and Darth Maul’s signature red lightsaber.
This set must be included in your LEGO BrickHeadz collection. Not only will it look great on display, but the building experience, which, as it contains six figures, you can share with fellow LEGO builders, will be immersive.

This set is the second Clone Commander Cody-inspired LEGO model you can currently buy.

Standing three inches tall, two inches wide, and two inches deep, the completed figure, with its authentic detailing and accessories, will look great on display. Accessories include a holoprojector and blaster pistol.
