Any Star Wars fan knows that May the fourth is a big event, any Lego fans and investors know that May 1st is a fantastic opportunity for great deals on Lego Star Wars sets, with freebies, bonus points, new sets and discounts. But also if last year is anything to go by those GWP can go quickly, so do your prep get organised and may the force be with you.
Don’t forget the best thing is that if you spend £145+ you will get all three gifts with purchase.
On a cash basis, 8 points work out at 5 pence, so 5% cashback.
But on some sets on Star Wars promo time, you can get 2 x or even 4 x insider points, and that then means that you can get 10 pence back for every pound or if we get any 4 x sets, then you can claim 20 pence back per £ in effect. A massive boost to your points balance for these purchases.
Last year you could get double points on all Lego Star Wars sets and five times on a select few, we will be sure to update as soon as we know which sets you can get quadruple (20% back on your points)

My last advice here is to be quick as these freebies and deals could go quick, also stay tuned as I am sure there is more to come.
May the force be with you.
Free Gifts with Purchase available from May 1st
There are three gifts with purchase when you buy Lego Star Wars sets starting for insider members on the 1st of May.AAT Poly bag with £45 spend
A small polybag for this small purchase threshold, but a cool little AAT set makes your purchase very nice. Similar poly bag to last year where we had the x wing.
Battle of Yavin Collectable coin free with £80 spend
A commemorative coin to recognise the destruction of the Death Star and the infamy of Luke Skywalker, a very cool collector token this one requires an £80 purchase on Lego Star Wars sets.
40686 Droid Carrier
This gift with purchase is probably not as good as the Death Star 2 from last year, but is a pretty cool Lego piece. It will certainly do much to boost many Lego armies. The trade federation troop carrier comes with 6 battle droids and 2 pilot battle droids, so quite a colelction in itself. You have to spend £145 on Lego Star Wars sets to claim, but sure we can handle that with ease.
Don’t forget the best thing is that if you spend £145+ you will get all three gifts with purchase.
Bonus Lego insider points up to 4 x on some sets.
As a member of being a Lego insider member, you can earn points for every £ you spend. Normally you get 8 points per £1 – and you can then redeem these points for vouchers or other gifts.
On a cash basis, 8 points work out at 5 pence, so 5% cashback.
But on some sets on Star Wars promo time, you can get 2 x or even 4 x insider points, and that then means that you can get 10 pence back for every pound or if we get any 4 x sets, then you can claim 20 pence back per £ in effect. A massive boost to your points balance for these purchases.
Last year you could get double points on all Lego Star Wars sets and five times on a select few, we will be sure to update as soon as we know which sets you can get quadruple (20% back on your points)
Potential discounts for Lego sets (some of which are exclusive and retiring)
As well as the bonus points you can also get discounts on some Star Wars sets. Expect 20% off on a couple of big Star Wars sets. A couple of teasers for you that could suspect a discount on could be the following…. again we will be sure to update as soon as we know definitively.
