Here are some of our favorite Star Wars Day deals

Peruse these awesome deals on Star Wars stuff, you must, because today is May the Fourth. Fans of Lucasfilm’s iconic franchise have long celebrated this day as a kind of borderline-religious holiday of sorts, one that recognizes an ever-growing franchise that has been adapted for almost every type of media — and product — you can think of.

Since its debut in ‘77, Star Wars lore has been doled out in films, TV series, books and graphic novels, video games, and plenty of other mediums we’re surely oblivious to. It’s also inspired board games, toys, apparel, and enough merch to fill a galaxy far, far away. Many retailers commemorate May 4th by discounting the latter, and we’ve gone deep into the heap so you can see all of the best Star Wars Day deals in one place.

Star Wars Day Lego deals

Lego is one of the biggest purveyors of Star Wars toys. The brand has blocky replicas of all sorts of iconic ships and gear, including AT-AT walkers, starfighters, and even our good friend Chewbacca. In addition to direct discounts, Lego is offering free gifts when you spend over a certain threshold. For example, you can get a 75-piece AAT set (usually $5) when you spend $40 or more, along with a Trade Federation Troop Carrier set (usually $29.99) when you spend $160 or more. If you have a free Lego Insiders account, you can also get a collectible pin depicting the Battle of Yavin (normally $14.99) when you spend $90 or more.

In addition to the freebies, Lego’s rewards program also nets you discounts on a host of exclusive sets — including a 2,319-piece Chewbacca, which is currently on sale for $164.99 ($35 off) via Lego’s online storefront. Coincidentally, that single purchase could net you all of the aforementioned freebies. You can also save $15 on the Emperor’s Throne Room Diorama, which brings it down to $84.99. To redeem either deal, however, you’ll need to go to Lego’s Insiders hub, sign up, and sign in if you haven’t already.

The Lego Star Wars Millennium Falcon set is a 1,351-piece build depicting Han Solo’s iconic YT-1300 Corellian light freighter. It features numerous movable parts — including rotating turrets, a ramp, and an opening cockpit — plus several iconic characters.

You can save 20 percent on a brick-ified TIE Bomber at Amazon, Target, and Best Buy, which drops it to $51.99 ($13 off). The set includes 625 pieces to build the lesser-known TIE vessel, as well as figurines of its pilot, Darth Vader, Vice Admiral Sloane, and a “Gonk” power droid.Amazon, Best Buy, and Target are all selling a model of Din Djarin’s menacing helmet from The Mandalorian for $55.99 ($14 off), which matches its best price to date. The 584-piece build also comes with its own display stand, allowing you to easily showcase the 7-inch beskar bust on your desk or shelf.Obi-Wan Kenobi’s Jedi Starfighter is currently on sale at Amazon, Walmart, and Target for $23.99 ($6 off). The 282-piece kit comes with everything you need to construct the Delta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptor — aka, Obi-Wan’s ship in Attack of the Clones — plus figurines of Taun We, an R4-P17 droid, and Obi-Wan himself.

Star Wars Day gaming deals

We’re in something of a golden age when it comes to the relationship between films and video games. More game franchises are being adapted to film and TV series with great success (ahem, The Last of Us), and the reverse has been true for a while now. Star Wars games were some of the earliest success stories in that regard, but newer titles like Star Wars Jedi: Survivor have taken the quality to another level. That particular game is down to $29.99 ($40 off) at Amazon (PS5 / Xbox), Best Buy (PS5 / Xbox), and Target (PS5 / Xbox).

Survivor continues the original story of Cal Kestis, who is one of the few remaining survivors of the Jedi Order after Order 66 nearly drove it into extinction. The adventure title, which borrows inspiration from Dark Souls in that you lose experience points upon death, directly follows the events of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (which also happens to be down to $3.99 for Xbox, PS5, and Steam).

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is the captivating sequel to 2019’s Fallen Order, one that continues the story of Cal Kestis and his little droid, BD-1. It’s an action-adventure game blending elements of games like Tomb Raider, Metroid, and God of War with Dark Souls— except you’re a Jedi with a lightsaber.

Best Buy is selling Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga for Xbox for $15.99 ($14 off) and PS4 for $9.99 ($10 off). Lego’s latest Star Wars game offers a fully interactive recap of all nine films from the series’ three core trilogies and remains one of the most enjoyable ways to relive the story. Be warned, however, that it may be hard to follow if you haven’t seen the films.The PC edition of Star Wars Battlefront II: Celebration Edition is on sale for only $4.79 (about $35 off) via Steam. The fun shooter lets you take control of series favorites like Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, and more. You’ll get more than 200 cosmetics as part of the bundle, including trooper and hero skins, emotes, and voice lines. Steam also has an EA Star Wars Triple Bundle that includes Battlefront II, the dogfighter Star Wars Squadrons, and Fallen Order for $9.06, which is about $120 off compared to the original prices for all three games.Humble’s May the Fourth sale features a bunch of discounted PC classics starting at just 74 cents. Some must-plays include the Knights of the Old Republic and The Force Unleashed games, but you can pick up nearly two dozen titles for $54.99 (45 percent off).

Star Wars Day tech deals

Personally, I love Nanoleaf’s Small Baby Gu Bundle, which is available from Nanoleaf right now for $224.98 ($75 off). The 17-panel starter kit includes just enough panels to assemble a replica of Baby Yoda’s head, though, if you ever get bored of the green fella’s pigmentation or design, Nanoleaf makes it easy to mix and match shapes from other bundles.

The modular lighting kit features Shapes Hexagons and Shapes Mini Triangles, both of which can react to light and sound. They’re also Matter-over-Thread-ready — meaning they’re compatible with Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Apple Home — and can mirror the colors on your display with the help of Nanoleaf’s desktop app.

Nanoleaf’s light panels come in distinct shapes that make it easy to connect them in a variety of fun patterns. The panels support up to 16 billion colors and a number of lighting scenes, which can react to music, touch, and your monitor. This set is designed to depict Grogu’s head.

Speaking of Grogu, Amazon is offering its fifth-gen Echo Dot in black or white with a stand shaped like his head for $55.98 ($22 off). The latest clock-equipped model is also on sale at Amazon in white with a Grogu stand for $67.98 ($20 off). Alternatively, if you already own an Echo Dot, you can buy the stand at Amazon separately for $24.99 ($3 off).

It’s a fifth-gen Echo Dot. With a Grogu stand. Will your kids love it or think it’s nightmare fuel?

It’s not on sale, sure, but Amazon is also selling another Star Wars-themed Echo Dot stand, one that resembles a Stormtrooper helmet, for $39.99.
