LEGO Star Wars May the 4th 2023: Everything You Need to Know

LEGO Star Wars fans, mark your calendars because May the 4th event is just around the corner! Let’s take a look at the recently revealed LEGO Star Wars May the 4th offerings that will be available during this much-anticipated event. Plus the best deals and free gifts that you can grab during the celebrations.

LEGO Star Wars May the 4th 2023: Freebies with Purchases

This year’s LEGO Star Wars May the 4th promotions will run from May 1 to 7, 2023 as mentioned over at the LEGO online shop campaign page. However, many deals at individual retailers will remain unknown until the actual event kicks off on May 4th.

The LEGO online shop usually has the most important promotions for LEGO Star Wars fans during this event, even if the discounts are traditionally the lowest there. This is due to the often attractive new releases in the past, but above all, to the free gifts which can be yours for certain qualifying purchases. And these freebies can become quite expensive on reselling sites as we’ve seen in the past.

For this year, there will be a lot of LEGO Star Wars May the 4th free gifts that will be up for grabs or while supplies last. Now is the great time to be a LEGO VIP member since many of these freebies will be unlocked along with your VIP perks. As of to date, there are three Gift with Purchase (GWP) items that are already confirmed.

LEGO Star Wars Death Star II (40591)

The big freebie for this year’s May the 4th event is the LEGO Star Wars Death Star II (40591). This set is a miniature version of the 2nd Death Star and comes complete with a Return of the Jedi 40th Anniversary plaque. The set comes with LEGO 18+ branding in an exclusive black box and consists of 289 parts. However, there is no LEGO Star Wars minifigure to watch out for from this one. The minimum qualifying purchase to bag this set has dropped slightly compared to last year. This LEGO Star Wars May the 4th promo will be available for all LEGO Star Wars purchases of $150 or more. This gift-with-purchase set is scheduled to be available from May 1st to May 7th, 2023, while supplies last.

LEGO Star Wars Return of the Jedi 40th Anniversary Collectible (5007840)

As an additional free gift, there will be a Return of the Jedi 40th Anniversary Collectible in the form of an exquisite medal, available for a minimum qualifying purchase of $85. This shiny collectible silver medal is engraved with the Death Star II on one side and the LEGO Star Wars wording on the other. It comes packaged in a matching box and covered with a transparent blue hologram of the Death Star, shaped to resemble the data cartridge containing the plans for the Death Star.

LEGO Star Wars X Wing Starfighter (30654) Polybag

From a minimum purchase value of $40 or more, LEGO Star Wars fans will receive the LEGO Star Wars X-Wing Starfighter polybag which has been available since January. This free gift has a value of $3.99 and can already be found in various shops as well.

VIP Perks on LEGO Star Wars May the 4th

Double VIP Points

As we’ve seen before, this year’s May the 4th event will see the return of double VIP points. However, unlike last year, all LEGO Star Wars purchases for this year’s event come with double VIP points. Double VIP points mean that logged-in VIP customers will be credited with 10% of the purchase value in the form of VIP points. These points can later be exchanged for shopping vouchers or physical rewards both online and in-store.

20% Off on Selected LEGO Star Wars Sets

This year, customers will be able to unlock a 20% discount on selected LEGO Star Wars sets with VIP vouchers. The discount vouchers will cost 100 VIP points, which is equivalent to a dollar or more, and will probably be limited in number. The exclusive sets to which the discounts apply are yet to be confirmed so be sure to keep your brick radars on.

More Exciting LEGO Star Wars May the 4th Items Over at the VIP Rewards Center

Likewise, the VIP Rewards Center is also loaded with LEGO Star Wars sweepstakes and rewards to celebrate the occasion. Be sure to join the raffle and get your chance to get these exclusive prizes. Each raffle entry and reward has a required number of VIP points.

Sterling Silver R2-D2 (50 LEGO VIP points required per raffle entry)

Limited Edition X-Wing Starfighter Print (3,500 VIP points to redeem)

LEGO Star Wars Bundle (25 points required per raffle entry)

LEGO Collectible Minifigures 71038 Disney 100 Box Distribution Revealed

As you may already know, LEGO fans have 18 reasons to celebrate Disney’s centennial celebrations this year. Third in the series, the LEGO Collectible Minifigures 71038 Disney 100 was officially revealed last month and is set to arrive on May 1st in celebration of the House of Mouse’s 100th anniversary. With a bumper of 18 different characters, including Pinocchio, Mulan, Baymax, Cruella de Vil, and more, this new series is expected to be a hit with LEGO fans of all ages.

However, if you’re looking to get your hands on a specific minifigure, you’ll need to be strategic. The blind-bagged nature of these collectible minifigures means that you won’t know what you’re getting until you open the package. So, what are your options for getting the characters you want?

Box Distribution for the LEGO Collectible Minifigures 71038 Disney 100

It has been confirmed already that a single box of 36 packets should contain two complete sets of 18 minifigures. This means that if you buy a complete box of minifigures, you’re guaranteed to get your hands on the full batch of LEGO Disney 100th anniversary minifigures.

However, if you’re only after a few characters, you may not want to spend the money on a full box. In that case, it’s worth knowing the complete box distribution to increase your chances of finding the characters you want. Fresh boxes typically have a consistent distribution of specific characters, so if you know where your favorites are located, you’ll have a better chance of finding them.

Early reviews of the LEGO Collectible Minifigures 71038 Disney 100 such as those from Ashnflash and Jay’s Brick Blog have confirmed the exact box distribution for the new series of blind-bagged characters, and where to find each character based on their particular placement inside their box.

Take a look at the table below.

BACK OF THE BOX

18	Baymax	18	Baymax
17	Aurora	17	Aurora
16	Mulan	16	Mulan

FRONT OF THE BOX

Complete Box vs. Individual Packets

Buying a complete box of minifigures isn’t the only way to get your hands on the full set of characters. You could also split the cost with a friend and divide up the two sets between you. However, if you’re only after a handful of characters, buying individual packets may be your best option.

Feeling out the Characters Maybe Your Last Option

One of the ways to get the characters is to feel your way through the individual CMF packets. While this method can be effective, it’s not foolproof. It requires a good sense of touch and can be time-consuming. Plus considering the current post-pandemic situation, feeling your way through each bag is not a safe option as well.

Knowing the box distribution layout for the series can help improve your chances of finding your favorite characters. Keep in mind that this layout may not be 100% the same across every box, but it’s a good starting point. It can reduce the amount of time required if you’re fine with feeling each blind bag and improve your chances of finding the minifigures you want. Plus, with the rumored release of the second series of LEGO Marvel Collectible Minifigures in September, which is expected to switch to new cardboard packaging, knowing where each CMF is placed inside a fresh box may be the only method available to find your favorite characters.

For now, fans can look forward to adding the LEGO Collectible Minifigures 71038 Disney 100 to their collection and displaying them proudly to commemorate Disney’s 100th anniversary.

LEGO Collectible Minifigures 71038 Disney 100

Kids aged 5+ can recreate their favorite film moments with these LEGO® Minifigures Disney 100 (71038) blind bags. New for May 2023, these popular and iconic animated characters from the past century can be collected, proudly displayed or used for exciting imaginative play.

An amazing parade of film stars!
Disney fans will be thrilled to revel in nostalgia and collect this fantastic array of iconic film characters: Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey, Pinocchio, Jiminy Cricket, The Queen, Stitch 626, Pocahontas, Cruella de Vil & Dalmatian puppy, Miguel & Dante, Ernesto de la Cruz, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Robin Hood, Prince John, Tiana, Dr. Facilier, Queen of Hearts, Mulan, Aurora and Baymax.

The perfect treat for LEGO fans!
All 18 LEGO minifigure Disney characters come in a sealed mystery bag and are accompanied by at least 1 cool accessory and a collector’s information leaflet. This is the perfect treat to inspire kids’ imaginations and give them lots of play value.

LEGO Teases on New LEGO Star Wars Return of the Jedi Sets

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Star Wars Episode VI, LEGO took to social media to give a hint of things to come. Return of the Jedi is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year since its first theatrical run in May 1983. And to celebrate this milestone, LEGO somewhat teases the imminent reveal of new Star Wars Return of the Jedi sets.

The teaser announcement came in via its official Twitter page, highlighting a couple of photos that show children donning costumes and props, re-enacting key moments of the film. We have a photo that seems to hint at the famous speeder bike chase on the forest moon of Endor, and another that shows the iconic showdown between the Emperor and Luke Skywalker in the Emperor’s throne room.

Interestingly, the photo on this video clip includes several LEGO parts and pieces that may hint at two new LEGO Star Wars Return of the Jedi sets that will be revealed soon. And if you look closely at the banner photo that LEGO used for its Twitter and Facebook pages, these LEGO parts and pieces were given a more prominent view.

As you may have guessed, the build on the left side of the photo, together with the large circular plate, are all parts of the Emperor’s throne room. While those on the right shows remnants of a Speeder Bike as it is surrounded by plant or foliage similar to how we can imagine in the forests of Endor.

And if you’re following the trail of LEGO Star Wars leaks recently, then there is some buzz surrounding a couple of new LEGO Star Wars Return of the Jedi sets specifically the Emperor’s Throne Room (75352) and the Endor Speed Chase (75353). Details are still scant about these sets, but according to Brickset, the former is expected to clock in at 807 pieces, while the latter is at 608 pieces. Given their size and LEGO’s marketing approach to these sets, we can somewhat glimpse that these may be intended for AFOLs especially considering that the film itself is already celebrating its 40th anniversary.

7956 1 — The new LEGO Star Wars Return of the Jedi sets takes their inspiration from these previous sets, but follow a diorama style that is intended to be more of a display set.

Though there are plenty of images and even reviews of these upcoming LEGO Star Wars Return of the Jedi sets out there, apparently because of another 3rd-party retailer slip-up, they are still not officially revealed by LEGO. But a quick look at these sources (if you don’t mind having a spoiler or two), shows that these new sets take their inspiration from previous ones such as the Ewok Attack (7956) from 2011 and the Death Star Final Duel (75093) from 2015. But this time, the newer iterations follow a more diorama-like format bearing the movie’s 4oth anniversary logo.

In the meantime, we have just to wait for LEGO’s official reveal any time soon, and hopefully, this month. Just remember to keep tabs on our blog for the latest LEGO Star Wars news and updates.
