What’s new at LEGO in May 2024? Here is a taste of the new products under the sign of a timeless and magical saga with a crazy set, a very collector’s item and many other things.
The weeks follow one another and are very similar for LEGO releases with an incalculable number of sets revealed each week or each month. If the month of April 2024 somewhat neglected one of the gooses that laid the golden eggs, it was only with the aim of returning better and above all to be present for a major meeting by hitting hard with a one shot. You have to prepare yourself for it, but in May 2024, you risk spending a lot of your savings just for this single license.
A batch of LEGO Star Wars sets for May the 4th
After the Batman: The Animated Series and Dungeons and Dragons sets, LEGO Star Wars will make a comeback on May 1, 2024, a few days before the “May the 4th” global event. An unmissable and important event in the lives of big Star Wars fans. As we have seen recently, various and varied constructions are arriving, including the Mos Espa Podrace. A diorama dedicated to the race as Anakin Skywalker and Sebulba in The Phantom Menace. He will be accompanied by a Brick Headz of clone commander Cody, but also a replica of the destroyer droid Droideka. Very cool sets which have been made official by LEGO. But if you want more, rest assured, there is much more.
The Danish firm has put the product sheets online for new sets with, as the big piece, the Tie Interceptor. A beautiful baby who exceeds 32 cm in height, 40 in length and 33 in width, and who is superbly detailed. Obviously, he is not alone and the big surprise comes from the imminent launch of a LEGO Star Wars book with lots of exclusive documents to keep carefully.
75382 Star Wars The TIE Interceptor
One of the most beautiful LEGO Star Wars sets from May the 4th will undoubtedly be the TIE interceptor with its almost 2000 bricks on the clock. What can I say except that it will look great next to a Millennium Falcon and other Star Wars ships. In addition to the stand with the 25th anniversary plaque, you will have two minifigures with a TIE pilot and a mouse droid.

For the 25th anniversary of LEGO Star Wars, you can rebuild one of the mechanical enemies from The Phantom Menace: a Droideka destroyer droid.

75378 Star Wars Speeder Escape BARC
After The Phantom Menace, LEGO Star Wars is tackling season 3 of The Mandalorian with a reproduction of a BARC speeder with its sidecar… and “Baby Yoda” who can even move alone. To do this, simply remove the seat with Grogu inside. The stud shooters are also there to fight against the Clone Troopers by sending round red coins. Here again, the primary goal is to create a specific scene from the Disney+ series.

All the new LEGO Star Wars releases for May 2024
In the other LEGO Stars Wars of May 2024 officially revealed, we can find a Brick Headz of Clone Commander Cody, two key rings for Luke Skywalker and the evil Palpatine, or even, and that’s a change, a book. Yes, a 312-page book “The Force of Creativity” with contributions from Lucasfilms and experts in colored bricks, which contains new illustrations, concept arts for the characters, etc. But the best is hidden inside the box with exclusive goodies such as facsimiles, building instructions, a paper replica of the 1999 Toy Fair invitation and art prints. In short, a great collector’s item and a gift idea for LEGO Star Wars fans.
