May 2026 LEGO Promotional/GWP Set News: Everything We Know
- 1 hour ago
- 5 min read

May stands as one of the biggest months in the LEGO calendar, driven almost entirely by the global celebration of Star Wars Day. The 1st of May 2026 sees the launch of several new LEGO Star Wars promotional sets alongside the 18+ display model of 75442 The Mandalorian's N-1 Starfighter. This annual event continues to dominate the early part of the month, with strong demand expected across the entire lineup, especially following April's wave of The Mandalorian & Grogu-inspired releases.
Beyond Star Wars, May expands into licensed display models and sport-focused builds from the new for 2026 LEGO Editions theme. A large football lineup arrives ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2026, including brick-built tributes to players such as Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappé, alongside 43032 FIFA World Cup 2026 Official Emblem. LEGO and Formula 1's partnership also continues with two entirely brick-built F1 helmets belonging to the Ferrari drivers of Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc.
For younger builders and casual fans, the month also includes a steady flow of more accessible sets. Highlights include 71052 CMF Series 29 and a selection of LEGO Disney Toy Story 5 builds, such as 43307 Alien with Pizza Planet Rocket Ride, 43301 Toy Story Slinky Dog Bookends, and the recently revealed 43304 Blaze's Horse Ranch.
While the lineup of brand-new sets is extensive, May's promotional offerings bring additional value with exclusive Gift With Purchase sets tied to specific themes and spending thresholds. If you're planning a LEGO haul this month, there's plenty to consider, especially when it comes to GWP sets. From LEGO Star Wars Day exclusives to franchise-based tie-ins and LEGO Insiders rewards, May offers a range of promotional models to help you make the most of your spend.
Here's everything we know so far about May 2026's full selection of LEGO GWPs:
30728 The Razor Crest
The entry-level promotion for this year's May the Fourth celebrations comes in the form of a new LEGO Polybag of 30728 The Razor Crest. The set itself obviously recreates the Razor Crest starship, but in the smallest of brick-built forms: LEGO microscale. It's a perfect mini build, capturing the new Razor Crest seen in The Mandalorian & Grogu movie, which also appears as a playset releasing on the 26th of April 2026 with 75447 The Razor Crest.
30728 captures the ship's new yellow detailing and mainly grey body, measuring 8 cm long, 7 cm wide and 3 cm tall. This small model is available, like most of the Star Wars Day Gift With Purchases releases this month, from the 1st to the 6th of May 2026, while supplies last. It will be free with any LEGO Star Wars purchases over just $40 / €40 / £35.

40917 The Darksaber
This year's headlining Gift With Purchase for Star Wars Day 2026 is 40917 The Darksaber, which becomes the fourth entry of the lightsaber-themed GWP sub-line. The build uses a combination of black and dark grey elements to replicate the sabre made of Beskar, along with its slit-shaped blade emitter. The LEGO Darksaber also includes the angular pommel and hand guard, and utilises the wand box elements from the LEGO Harry Potter theme in black to achieve a layered, rigid look for the hilt.
The 278-piece build is then complete with the standard 18+ display stand features, along with a printed nameplate: 'LEGO Star Wars The Darksaber'. To add 40917 The Darksaber to your collection of LEGO lightsabers, you'll have to spend over $160 / €160 / £145 on any LEGO Star Wars sets.
Set Name - The Darksaber
Set Number - 40917

5010320 The Mandalorian and Grogu Display
Away from the actual brick-built sets, we have a couple of LEGO Star Wars-branded collectable items available for this year's Star Wars Day celebrations. The first is 5010320 The Mandalorian and Grogu Display, which is an ornament featuring a lenticular 'film' strip of Mando and Grogu in the cockpit of N-1 Starfighter, just like we see throughout the third season of The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett.
Viewed from different angles, the fabric filmstrip and its stars will start to blur around the two characters as if the starighter is accelerating to maximum speed. The collector's item is complete with a simple LEGO Star Wars presentation box. Unfortunately, the 6+ model has a high threshold as it is exclusively available with purchases of 75442 The Mandalorian's N-1 Starfighter from the 1st to the 6th of May 2026.
Set Name - The Mandalorian and Grogu Display
Set Number - 5010320

Availability - Free with purchases of 75442 The Mandalorian's N-1 Starfighter - Shop Now at LEGO

5010325 The Mandalorian & Grogu Metal Card
If you're a part of the LEGO Insiders reward program, you're in luck, as 5010325 The Mandalorian & Grogu Metal Card will be available from the 1st of May 2026 by redeeming a total of 2,500 LEGO Insiders points.
The LEGO Star Wars Insiders Reward is literally, as the name suggests, a metal card featuring UV-printed images of a LEGO Minifigure version of Din Djarin and Grogu behind his shoulder. The antique silver elecrtoplate also includes the LEGO Star Wars logo alongside outlines of 1x1 and 2x1 LEGO bricks. The collectable metal card is then complete with a corresponding metal stand to display this LEGO Insiders reward and pay tribute to two iconic Star Wars bounty hunters.
