Unlock the LEGO Millennium Falcon Mini Build and LEGO Kamino Training Facility with These Expert Tips
May the 4th is the biggest event on the LEGO Star Wars calendar, and 2025’s promotion offers fans the chance to pick up not one but two exclusive LEGO gifts-with-purchase (GWPs). With a bit of planning, you can secure both and maximise the value of your LEGO haul. In this article, we’ll break down what the two LEGO GWPs are, the spending thresholds required for each, and suggest the best buying strategies to make the most of this year's event.
The Two LEGO Star Wars May the 4th GWPs
LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon Mini Build (30708)
The first GWP available is the LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon Mini Build (30708). This small polybag set features a compact version of Han Solo’s legendary ship, designed with clever detail in a fun, quick build. To qualify for this GWP, you’ll need to spend £35 / $40 / €40 or more on LEGO Star Wars products during the promotional window. With a relatively low spend requirement, it's an easy extra bonus whether you're making a small or large purchase.
LEGO Star Wars Kamino Training Facility (40765)
The second and more substantial GWP is the LEGO Star Wars Kamino Training Facility (40765). This exclusive set recreates the iconic training arena from Attack of the Clones, complete with moving features and mini-figures. To secure this GWP, you’ll need to spend £145 / $160 / €160 or more on LEGO Star Wars sets. Importantly, if you reach this higher threshold, you’ll also automatically qualify for the Millennium Falcon Mini Build — allowing you to walk away with both gifts in one purchase.
Best LEGO Star Wars Purchases to Maximize Your May the 4th Gifts with Purchase
If you're aiming to maximise your rewards during this year’s promotion, here are three smart strategies to hit the £145 / $160 / €160 spend level and secure both GWPs:
Option 1: Buy the New Blockbuster Release – LEGO Jango Fett's Firespray-Class Starship (75409)
The brand new LEGO Jango Fett's Firespray-Class Starship (75409) is a headline release for May the 4th 2025. Based on the legendary bounty hunter’s ship from Attack of the Clones, this 1,070-piece model offers a fresh take on an iconic Star Wars vehicle. Featuring Jango Fett and Boba Fett minifigures, a sleek blue-and-silver colour scheme, rotating blasters, and detailed cockpit features, this set has been highly anticipated by fans. Retailing at around the GWP threshold price point, it’s the perfect single purchase to automatically unlock both the Millennium Falcon Mini Build and the Kamino Training Facility.
Option 2: Combine Two or more Smaller New Releases
Another smart approach is to pick two of the newly released smaller sets. Start by purchasing LEGO Chopper (C1-10P) Astromech Droid (75416), a great standalone model of the chaotic and beloved droid from Star Wars Rebels. To push your spend past the GWP threshold, pair Chopper with one of these options:
Alternatively, you could buy the three of the smaller sets without LEGO Chopper. These combinations allow you to customise your haul depending on your personal interests — whether you're a fan of vehicles, Clone Wars-era collectibles, or Star Wars helmets.
Option 3: Invest in Sets Scheduled to Retire This Year
May the 4th is a great opportunity to pick up retiring sets before they disappear — especially if you're thinking about future value. Our top recommendation at this price point is the LEGO Imperial Star Destroyer (75394), an iconic model that’s expected to perform well post-retirement.
Alternative options would include:
-
LEGO UCS X-wing Starfighter (75355) — a stunning large-scale collector model.
-
LEGO Ghost and Phantom II (75357) — based on the popular ships from Star Wars Rebels and Ahsoka.
All three options will get you above the required spend to qualify for both GWPs while setting you up with potential future investment wins. (Please note in the US you may need to add a LEGO Star Wars key ring or similar to the sets at $159.99 to go over the threshold).
Final Thoughts
With two exciting GWPs available, May the 4th 2025 is shaping up to be a fantastic opportunity for LEGO Star Wars fans. Whether you’re picking up the latest releases, completing your collection, or investing for the future, careful planning can help you maximise your rewards. Whatever path you choose, May the 4th be with you!
