LEGO Star Wars UCS 75181 Y-wing Starfighter available now

The latest LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series set, 75181 Y-wing Starfighter, is available to buy now from the official LEGO online shop.

It is the time of year when the LEGO Group launches a new Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series set, with 75181 Y-wing Starfighter launching today. The 1,967 piece set recreates a classic starfighter from the 1977 movie that started it all, Star Wars: A New Hope. This set is exclusively available at shop.LEGO.com.

As the release of the set coincides with the May the Fourth weekend, fans can also take advantage of a number of LEGO Star Wars promotions. Anyone holding the special edition LEGO Star Wars VIP card and spending £30 or more – which 75181 Y-wing Starfighter easily qualifies for – will get an exclusive print for free using the code received by e-mail.

That is not the only free item available, as anyone spending £60 ($75) or more on LEGO Star Wars sets will get a free free 40288 BB-8 polybag.

There is also 20% off selected LEGO Star Wars sets, so anyone who has not yet purchased last year’s Ultimate Collector Series 75144 Snowspeeder can get a good deal on that, or pick up 75190 First Order Star Destroyer at a reduced price.

That is not all though, as there are double VIP points on any LEGO Star Wars order, except for the new UCS set and 75192 Millennium Falcon. Even better, selected sets have been discounted by 20% including .

Today also sees the launch of the latest Ultimate Collector Series release, 75181 Y-wing Starfighter, that recreates the memorable bomber using an eye watering 1967 pieces.

These May the Fourth LEGO Star Wars promotions promotions will run until Sunday, May 6, with 40288 BB-8 available until that date or while stocks last.
