Star Wars day is here, and Lego is celebrating it in style with price cuts on sets, member bonuses and even a free set if you spend over a certain amount.

Fans of Star Wars will almost certainly have considered buying one of the huge number of Lego Star Wars sets ever since that range began in 1999, with packs being available based on the main films, The Mandalorian, and more sets from the wider Star Wars universe.

The Lego Star Wars sets range from smaller ships and settings and decorative items like key-chains, to huge Death Star, Star Destroyer and Millennium Falcon models available for huge sums, aimed at the dedicated collector.

Since the Star Wars franchise is so well represented by Lego, Star Wars Day on May 4 is the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the various deals and offers on Lego Star Wars sets running over the course of the day. We'll run you through the options open to you, all available directly from Lego's store.

Free Lego Star Wars day set

If you spend over $75 / £75 on Lego Star Wars sets over the course of Star Wars Day, you can claim a free gift from Lego in the form of the 'Death Star II Battle' kit. It doesn't seem that this offer is available in Australia, though, unfortunately.

This set was created just for Star Wars Day 2020, and it's a decorative piece recreating the finale from Return of the Jedi, perfect for fans of the original trilogy. You can view the set online here, and it's also pictured above.

You can get this free gift on all online orders on the Lego website over the price threshold, meaning you don't have to buy Lego Star Wars sets to get it. Of course, since it's Star Wars Day, you might be more inclined to order that type of set anyway.

Most of the best Lego Star Wars kits are starships, and the only ship available on the Star Wars Day sale is this ship from the TV show Star Wars Resistance. It comes with Poe Dameron, arguably the best character from the newest films, as well as the droid BB-8.

Of course, as part of Star Wars Day you can order any Lego Star Wars sets you want, not just those on sale, if you want to get that free set.
