Star Wars Day is just around the corner. Fans have been well-served so far: The Revenge of the Sith anniversary showings have led to it becoming the highest-grossing re-release ever, and at its halfway point Andor season two is still getting rave reviews. Best of all, May brings with it a host of new LEGO Star Wars releases! We’ve reviewed almost all the new sets, ranging from 75409 Jango Fett’s Starship to 75407 Star Wars Logo. And don’t forget the 40765 Kamino Training Facility Gift with Purchase, available with qualifying purchases from May 1st to May 5th. If Star Wars doesn’t take your fancy, there are sets from the Marvel, Art and F1 collections coming out this month too. The full range is of course available over on LEGO’s website: LEGO US | LEGO CAN | LEGO UK.
