I'm keen to add to my Lego Star Wars collection and these May the Fourth discounts are very tempting

As a Star Wars fan and someone who grew up with Lego as my favourite toy, Lego Star Wars sets have become some of my aspirational purchases as an adult — partly because the larger sets are expensive on their own, and I also don’t have the room to display all the sets in my wish list in my small apartment.

At present, there are just two sets in my Lego Star Wars collection — the big-ticket Ultimate Collector Series (UCS) X-Wing Starfighter and a smaller set with a Grogu (aka baby Yoda) minifigure — but I’ve been keen to add to it, particularly the 7,541-piece Millennium Falcon and the 9,023-piece Death Star.

So it’s a good thing that Amazon has slashed prices on several Lego Star Wars sets in celebration of May the Fourth, including the ones on my wish list, but there are offers on the flashy new Smart Play sets that were unveiled at CES earlier this year. With Star Wars Day here, even those are now quite affordable.

There are also a lot of other sets across a variety of price ranges that have discounts too. So go on, indulge yourself and May the Fourth be with you.
