As you probably know already, May the 4th is traditionally celebrated as Star Wars Day where fans of the galaxy far-far away dress up in Star Wars costumes in honor of the films and do other fun stuff. At some locations this is a huge event. Since the phrase “May the Force be with you” is a famous quote often spoken in the Star Wars films, fans commonly say “May the fourth be with you” on this day. 🙂
LEGO picked up on the popularity of May the 4th a few years ago and since Star Wars is one of their main product lines, they started to offer special sales and promotions on this day. You might remember that last year you could get the super special silver-chromed TC-14 minifigure. This year’s offers are similar, and are listed below:
- FREE SHIPPING on with purchases of $49 or more!
- FREE EXCLUSIVE HAN SOLO (HOTH) MINIFIGURE with LEGO Star Wars purchases of $75 or more!
- EXCLUSIVE POSTER with any LEGO Star Wars purchase!
Visit the Online LEGO Shop for all these deals. In addition, the following LEGO Star Wars sets and accessories are on sale during the two-day LEGO Star Wars offers (or while supplies last). You can find them all at the Star Wars section of the Online LEGO Shop. Here is the link to all the listings: BUY LEGO STAR WARS SETS ON SALE
Also, don’t forget that the Ultimate Collector Series #10240 LEGO Star Wars Red Five X-wing Starfighter has been released today! You can check out our preview of the set here: LEGO Star Wars Red Five X-wing Starfighter, and buy here: BUY LEGO STAR WARS X-WING STARFIGHTER
Here are some of the other featured LEGO Star Wars sets that are worth considering. The #10188 LEGO Star Wars Death Star has been out for five years and it’s popularity still hasn’t veined. It is really one of the best LEGO Star Wars sets ever created. Another wonderful set for Star Wars fans is the #10225 LEGO Star Wars R2-D2. We reviewed this set in the past (see link at the end of this post), and if you want a LEGO version of the cutest droid in the galaxy, this is your chance. And don’t forget the #10227 LEGO Star Wars B-wing Starfighter! This is another Ultimate Collector Series set that is now 50% off! And there are many smaller sets worth considering.
If you are not into Star Wars, you might still consider shopping at this time as the free shipping offer comes with a very low threshold and it is not just for LEGO Star Wars sets. A great opportunity to pick up some smaller sets in other themes.
So hope you enjoy Star Wars Day, and let me know what you are getting in the comment section below! Also, if you are going to any Star Wars events feel free to share! And “May the fourth be with you!” 😉

those are cool but i want to save my mony to get the batcave but %50 of the b-wing is relly good i feel sorry for any body who got that yester day 😉
Yeah, that’s why it is a good idea to keep up with LEGO news. One day can make a big difference! Wishing you the best with saving up for the Batcave! 😀
ha-ha. that’s very true lego trooper. it would be like this. ”i’m going to buy this set on may 3 2013!” then they buy it. ”yes! i’m so cool, i’m a cool kid.” then they see the sale the next morning. ”what… that’s impossible!!!!!!!”
(this story is just my kind of luck) 🙂
Luke and Vader in unison,
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
well that han solo would go great in my han solo collection (I pretty much own every han solo except the one from the death star)
wow thats a lot of han solos i don’t have any ofem 😉
Hey Admin,don’t forget Revenge Of The Fifth! 😀
LOL! YOu know; I completely forgot about that! The Dark Side caught me off guard! 😈
Sorry I haven’t talked here lately Admin. I’ve been really busy and I wasn’t able to check here. My internet has also been down for a while so I wasn’t able to check. 🙁
Hey, no problem! Always nice to have you when you have time to stop by! And when you can’t, no hard feelings! 😀
Sigh. Once again, I hate the fact that these don’t apply worldwide.
And I planned to watch all the Star Wars movies yesterday back to back. I didn’t even watch one. However, I did watch this documentary called “The People Vs. George Lucas”.
Star Wars is awesome. It gets a lot of scrunity and criticism from over-thinking and over-complicated people, but they are really some of the best movies. I know for me it was life-changing when I watched the first one, and I still re-watch all of them about once a year. 🙂
i like the third the best 😀
Star Wars fans unite!!!!! (i like sonic too though.)
i wish i had that minifigure 🙁 but LEGO needs to make more stores.
